Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 30, 2019 and for the three months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of stockholders' equity, and statements of cash flows of Motorola Solutions, Inc. (“Motorola Solutions” or the “Company”) for all periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . The results of operations for the three months ended March 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recent Acquisitions On March 11, 2019, the Company announced that it acquired Avtec, Inc. ("Avtec"), a provider of dispatch communications for U.S. public safety and commercial customers for a purchase price of $136 million in cash, net of cash acquired. This acquisition expands the Company's commercial portfolio with new capabilities, allowing it to offer an enhanced platform for customers to communicate, coordinate resources, and secure their facilities. The business will be part of both the Products and Systems Integration and Services and Software segments. On January 7, 2019, the Company announced that it acquired VaaS International Holdings ("VaaS"), a company that is a global provider of data and image analytics for vehicle location for $445 million , inclusive of share-based compensation withheld at a fair value of $38 million that will be expensed over an average service period of one year. The acquisition was settled with $231 million of cash, net of cash acquired, and 1.4 million of shares issued at a fair value of $160 million for a purchase price of $391 million . This acquisition expands the Company's command center software portfolio under the Services and Software segment. On March 28, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Avigilon Corporation ("Avigilon"), a provider of advanced security and video solutions including video analytics, network video management hardware and software, video cameras and access control solutions for a purchase price of $974 million in cash. On March 7, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Plant Holdings, Inc. ("Plant"), the parent company of Airbus DS Communications for a purchase price of $237 million in cash. This acquisition expanded the Company's software portfolio in the command center with additional solutions for Next Generation 9-1-1. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20) - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans,” which modifies the disclosure requirements for the defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans. The ASU is effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 with early adoption permitted. The ASU requires a retrospective adoption method. The Company does not believe the ASU will have a material impact on its financial statement disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net income. This was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the ASU and amends the transition requirements. The ASU is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted beginning as of January 1, 2019. The ASU requires a modified retrospective adoption method. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adoption on its financial statements and disclosures. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, "Leases," which amends existing guidance to require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by long-term leases and to disclose additional quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements. This was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, “Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842,” ASU No. 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases,” and ASU No. 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements” (collectively "ASC 842"). ASC 842 establishes a right-of-use model ("ROU") that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with an initial term longer than twelve months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and presentation of expense recognition in the income statement. The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at January 1,2019, the date of the initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and disclosures required under ASC 842 will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. ASC 842 provides for a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the practical expedients, which permit the Company to not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs under ASC 842 . The Company did not elect the "use-of hindsight" practical expedient to determine the lease term or in assessing the likelihood that a lease purchase option will be exercised, allowing it to carry forward the lease term as determined prior to adoption of ASC 842. Finally, the Company also elected the practical expedient related to land easements, which enabled it to continue its accounting treatment for land easements on existing agreements as of January 1, 2019. ASC 842 also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. A short-term lease is one with a term of 12 months or less, including any optional periods that are reasonably certain of exercise. For those leases that qualify, the exemption allows the Company to not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, including not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases at transition. Short-term lease costs are recognized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term consistent with the Company’s prior accounting. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all current lease categories. The Company recognized operating lease liabilities of $648 million based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments determined under prior lease accounting standards and corresponding ROU assets of $588 million . The $ 60 million difference between operating lease liabilities and ROU assets recognized is due to deferred rent and exit cost accruals recorded under prior lease accounting standards. ASC 842 requires such balances to be reclassified against ROU assets at transition. In future periods such balances will not be presented separately. For arrangements where the Company is the lessor, the adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on its financial statements as the majority of its leases are operating leases embedded within managed services contracts. ASC 842 provides a practical expedient for lessors in which the lessor may elect, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component and, instead, to account for these components as a single component if both of the following are met: (1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the non-lease component(s) and associated lease component are the same and (2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. The accounting under the practical expedient depends on which component(s) is predominant in the contract. If the non-lease component is predominant, the single component is accounted under ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contract with Customers and accounting and disclosure under ASC 842 is not applicable. The Company has elected the above practical expedient and determined that non-lease components are predominant and is accounting for the single components as managed service contracts under ASC Topic 606.

The transaction price associated with remaining performance obligations which are not yet satisfied as of March 30, 2019 is $7.0 billion . A total of $3.0 billion is from Products and Systems Integration performance obligations that are not yet satisfied, of which $1.6 billion is expected to be recognized in the next 12 months . The remaining amounts will generally be satisfied over time as systems are implemented. A total of $4.0 billion is from Services and Software performance obligations that are not yet satisfied as of March 30, 2019 . The determination of Services and Software performance obligations that are not satisfied takes into account a contract term that may be limited by the customer’s ability to terminate for convenience. Where termination for convenience exists in the Company's Services contracts, its disclosure of the remaining performance obligations that are unsatisfied assumes the contract term is limited until renewal. The Company expects to recognize $1.3 billion from unsatisfied Services and Software performance obligations over the next 12 months , with the remaining performance obligations to be recognized over time as services are performed and software is implemented.

Revenue of $9 million was reversed during the three months ended March 30, 2019 and $9 million of revenue was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to performance obligations satisfied, or partially satisfied, in previous periods, primarily driven by changes in the estimates of progress on system contracts. There were no material impairment losses recognized on contract assets during the three months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 . Contract Cost Balances March 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Current contract cost assets $ 36 $ 30 Non-current contract cost assets 99 98 Amortization of contract cost assets was $11 million and $12 million for the three months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 , respectively.

Leases

Leases [Abstract]
Operating Leases	Leases The Company leases certain office, factory and warehouse space, land, and other equipment, principally under non-cancelable operating leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract. The Company's key decisions in determining whether a contract is or contains a lease include establishing whether the supplier has the ability to use other assets to fulfill its service or whether the terms of the agreement enable the Company to control the use of a dedicated asset during the contract term. In the majority of the Company's contracts where it must identify whether a lease is present, it is readily determinable that the Company controls the use of the assets and obtains substantially all of the economic benefit during the term of the contract. In those contracts where identification is not readily determinable, the Company has determined that the supplier has either the ability to use another asset to provide the service or the terms of the contract give the supplier the rights to operate the asset at its discretion during the term of the contract. ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The Company's lease payments are typically fixed or contain fixed escalators. The Company has elected to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of its current lease categories and therefore, all consideration is included in the lease liabilities. For the Company's leases consisting of both land and other equipment (i.e. "communication network sites"), future payments are subject to variability due to changes in indices or rates. The Company values its ROU assets and lease liabilities based on the index or rate in effect at lease commencement. Future changes in the indices or rates are accounted for as variable lease costs. Other variable lease costs also include items that are not fixed at lease commencement including property taxes, insurance, and operating charges that vary based on usage. ROU assets also include lease payments made in advance and are net of lease incentives. As the majority of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rates based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company's incremental borrowing rates are based on the term of the lease, the economic environment of the lease, and the effect of collateralization. The Company's lease terms range from one to twenty-one years and may include options to extend the lease by one to ten years or terminate the lease after the initial non-cancelable term. The Company does not include options in the determination of the lease term for the majority of leases as sufficient economic factors do not exist that would compel it to continue to use the underlying asset beyond the initial non-cancelable term. However, for the Company's communication network site leases that are necessary to provide services to customers under managed service arrangements, the Company includes options in the lease term to the extent of the customer contracts to which those leases relate. The components of lease expense are as follows: Three Months Ended March 30, Lease expense: Operating lease cost $ 33 Finance lease cost Amortization of right-of-use assets 3 Interest on lease liabilities 1 Total finance lease cost 4 Short-term lease cost 2 Variable cost 9 Sublease income (1 ) Net lease expense $ 47 Lease assets and liabilities consist of the following: Statement Line Classification March 30, Assets: Operating lease assets Operating lease assets $ 593 Finance lease assets Property, plant, and equipment, net 53 $ 646 Current liabilities: Operating lease liabilities Accrued liabilities $ 116 Finance lease liabilities Current portion of long-term debt 15 $ 131 Non-current liabilities: Operating lease liabilities Operating lease liabilities $ 553 Finance lease liabilities Long-term debt 25 $ 578 Other information related to leases is as follows: Three Months Ended March 30, Supplemental cash flow information: Net cash used for operating activities related to operating leases $ 33 Net cash used for operating activities related to finance leases 1 Net cash used for financing activities related to finance leases 4 Assets obtained in exchange for lease liabilities: Operating leases $ 27 Three Months Ended March 30, Weighted average remaining lease terms (years): Operating leases 8 Finance leases 3 Weighted average discount rate: Operating leases 3.74 % Finance leases 4.97 % Future lease payments as of March 30, 2019 are as follows: Operating Leases Finance Leases Total 2019 $ 102 $ 13 $ 115 2020 134 14 148 2021 119 12 131 2022 106 5 111 2023 54 — 54 Thereafter 267 — 267 Total lease payments 782 44 826 Less: Interest 113 4 117 Present value of lease liabilities $ 669 $ 40 $ 709 Rental expense, net of sublease income, for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $108 million .

The 2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement includes a $500 million letter of credit sub-limit with $450 million of fronting commitments. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the prime rate plus the applicable margin, or at a spread above the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), at the Company's option. An annual facility fee is payable on the undrawn amount of the credit line. The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment if the Company's credit rating changes. The Company must comply with certain customary covenants including a maximum leverage ratio, as defined in the 2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as of March 30, 2019 . During the first quarter of 2018, the Company borrowed $400 million to facilitate the Avigilon acquisition. There were no borrowings outstanding or letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility as of March 30, 2019 . In conjunction with the Avigilon acquisition in the first quarter of 2018, the Company entered into a term loan for $400 million with a maturity date of March 26, 2021 (the “Term Loan”). Interest on the Term Loan is variable, indexed to LIBOR, and paid monthly. The weighted average borrowing rate for amounts outstanding during the three months ended March 30, 2019 was 3.75% .

The Company does not believe these financial instruments should subject it to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should generally offset gains and losses on the underlying assets, liabilities and transactions. The following table shows the five largest net notional amounts of the positions to buy or sell foreign currency as of March 30, 2019 , and the corresponding positions as of December 31, 2018 : Notional Amount Net Buy (Sell) by Currency March 30, December 31, Euro $ 136 $ 89 Norwegian Krone 34 28 Australian Dollar (83 ) (105 ) Chinese Renminbi (59 ) (55 ) Brazilian Real (41 ) (41 ) Counterparty Risk The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to counterparty credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties. However, the Company’s risk is limited to the fair value of the instruments when the derivative is in an asset position. The Company actively monitors its exposure to credit risk. As of March 30, 2019 , all of the counterparties have investment grade credit ratings. As of March 30, 2019 , the Company had $7 million of exposure to aggregate net credit risk with all counterparties.

The Company recognizes changes in the fair value of the net investment hedges as a component of foreign currency translation adjustments within other comprehensive income to offset a portion of the change in translated value of the net investment being hedged, until the investment is sold or liquidated. In accordance with ASU 2017-02, the Company has elected to exclude the difference between the spot rate and the forward rate of the forward contract from its assessment of hedge effectiveness. The effect of the excluded components will be amortized on a straight line basis and recognized through interest expense. As of March 30, 2019, the Company had €95 million of net investment hedges in certain Euro functional subsidiaries and £75 million of net investment hedges in certain British pound functional subsidiaries. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company amortized $1 million of income from the excluded components through interest expense.

Fair Value Measurements	Mar. 30, 2019
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements The Company holds certain fixed income securities, equity securities and derivatives, which are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date and is measured using the fair value hierarchy. This hierarchy prescribes valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to each measurement are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumptions about current market conditions. The prescribed fair value hierarchy and related valuation methodologies are as follows: Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable, in active markets. Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques, in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable. The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities by level in the fair value hierarchy as of March 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were as follows: March 30, 2019 Level 1 Level 2 Total Assets: Foreign exchange derivative contracts $ — $ 7 $ 7 Common stock 18 — 18 Liabilities: Foreign exchange derivative contracts $ — $ 3 $ 3 December 31, 2018 Level 1 Level 2 Total Assets: Foreign exchange derivative contracts $ — $ 5 $ 5 Corporate bonds 1 — 1 Common stock 19 — 19 Liabilities: Foreign exchange derivative contracts $ — $ 4 $ 4 The Company had no Level 3 holdings as of March 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018 .

Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Legal Matters The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits, claims, and actions, which arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. However, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations in the periods in which the matters are ultimately resolved, or in the periods in which more information is obtained that changes management's opinion of the ultimate disposition. Other Indemnifications The Company is a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it is obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. In indemnification cases, payment by the Company is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, which procedures typically allow the Company to challenge the other party's claims. In some instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by the Company. Some of these obligations arise as a result of divestitures of the Company's assets or businesses and require the Company to indemnify the other party against losses arising from breaches of representations and warranties and covenants and, in some cases, the settlement of pending obligations. The Company's obligations under divestiture agreements for indemnification based on breaches of representations and warranties are generally limited in terms of duration and to amounts not in excess of a percentage of the contract value. The Company had no accruals for any such obligations at March 30, 2019 . In addition, the Company may provide indemnifications for losses that result from the breach of general warranties contained in certain commercial and intellectual property agreements. Historically, the Company has not made significant payments under these agreements.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Intangible Assets and Goodwill	Intangible Assets and Goodwill The Company accounts for acquisitions using purchase accounting with the results of operations for each acquiree included in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for the period subsequent to the date of acquisition. Recent Acquisitions On March 11, 2019, the Company announced that it acquired Avtec, Inc. ("Avtec"), a provider of dispatch communications for U.S. public safety and commercial customers for a purchase price of $136 million in cash, net of cash acquired. This acquisition expands the Company's commercial portfolio with new capabilities, allowing it to offer an enhanced platform for customers to communicate, coordinate resources, and secure their facilities. The business will be a part of both the Products and Systems Integration and Services and Software segments. The Company recognized $73 million of identifiable intangible assets, $59 million of goodwill, and $4 million of net assets. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. The identifiable intangible assets were classified as $49 million of completed technology and $24 million of customer relationship intangibles and will be amortized over a period of 15 years. The purchase accounting is not yet complete and as such the final allocation between deferred income tax accounts, intangible assets, goodwill, and net assets may be subject to change based on the finalization of assumptions and settlement of working capital considerations. On January 7, 2019, the Company announced that it acquired VaaS International Holdings ("VaaS"), a company that is a global provider of data and image analytics for vehicle location for $445 million , inclusive of share-based compensation withheld at a fair value of $38 million that will be expensed over an average service period of one year. The acquisition was settled with $231 million of cash, net of cash acquired, and 1.4 million of shares issued at a fair value of $160 million for a purchase price of $391 million to be utilized in the purchase price allocation. This acquisition expands the Company's command center software portfolio under the Services and Software segment. The Company recognized $271 million of goodwill, $141 million of identifiable intangible assets and $21 million of net liabilities. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The identifiable intangible assets were classified as $99 million of completed technology that will be amortized over a period of ten years and $42 million of customer relationship intangibles that will be amortized over a period of 15 years. The purchase accounting is not yet complete and as such the final allocation between deferred income tax accounts, goodwill, intangible assets, and net liabilities may be subject to change based on the finalization of assumptions and settlement of working capital considerations. The pro forma effects of these acquisitions are not significant. Avigilon Corporation On March 28, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Avigilon Corporation, a provider of advanced security and video solutions including video analytics, network video management hardware and software, video cameras and access control solutions. The purchase price of $974 million , consisted of cash payments of $980 million for outstanding common stock, restricted stock units and employee held stock options, net of cash acquired of $107 million , debt assumed of $75 million and transaction costs of $26 million . Prior to the end of the first quarter of 2018, $35 million of the assumed debt was repaid with the remaining $40 million repaid during the second quarter of 2018. The acquisition of Avigilon has been accounted for at fair value as of the acquisition date, based on the fair value of the total consideration transferred which has been attributed to all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and measured at fair value. The purchase accounting has been completed as of March 30, 2019 . The following table summarizes fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the March 28, 2018 acquisition date: Accounts receivable, net $ 67 Inventory 93 Other current assets 18 Property, plant and equipment, net 33 Deferred income taxes 4 Accounts payable (21 ) Accrued liabilities (28 ) Deferred income tax liabilities (124 ) Goodwill 434 Intangible assets 498 Total consideration $ 974 Acquired intangible assets consist of $110 million of customer relationships, $380 million of developed technology and $8 million of trade names and will have useful lives of two to twenty years. The fair values of all intangible assets were estimated using the income approach. Customer relationships and developed technology were valued under the excess earnings method which assumes that the value of an intangible asset is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable specifically to the intangible asset. Trade names were valued under the relief from royalty method, which assumes value to the extent that the acquired company is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from them. Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from the other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The pro forma effect of this acquisition was not significant. Other Acquisitions On March 7, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Plant Holdings, Inc., the parent company of Airbus DS Communications for a purchase price of $237 million in cash, net cash acquired. This acquisition expanded the Company's software portfolio in the command center with additional solutions for Next Generation 9-1-1. The Company recognized $160 million of goodwill, $80 million of identifiable intangible assets, and $3 million of net liabilities. The goodwill is no t deductible for tax purposes. The identifiable intangible assets were classified as $41 million of customer-related intangibles, $27 million of completed technology and $12 million of trade names. The identifiable intangible assets will be amortized over a period of ten to twenty years. The pro forma effect of this acquisition was not significant.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 30, 2019 and for the three months ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of stockholders' equity, and statements of cash flows of Motorola Solutions, Inc. (“Motorola Solutions” or the “Company”) for all periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . The results of operations for the three months ended March 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20) - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans,” which modifies the disclosure requirements for the defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans. The ASU is effective for the Company on January 1, 2021 with early adoption permitted. The ASU requires a retrospective adoption method. The Company does not believe the ASU will have a material impact on its financial statement disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net income. This was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the ASU and amends the transition requirements. The ASU is effective for the Company on January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted beginning as of January 1, 2019. The ASU requires a modified retrospective adoption method. The Company is still evaluating the impact of adoption on its financial statements and disclosures. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, "Leases," which amends existing guidance to require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by long-term leases and to disclose additional quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements. This was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, “Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842,” ASU No. 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases,” and ASU No. 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements” (collectively "ASC 842"). ASC 842 establishes a right-of-use model ("ROU") that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with an initial term longer than twelve months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and presentation of expense recognition in the income statement. The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at January 1,2019, the date of the initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and disclosures required under ASC 842 will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. ASC 842 provides for a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the practical expedients, which permit the Company to not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs under ASC 842 . The Company did not elect the "use-of hindsight" practical expedient to determine the lease term or in assessing the likelihood that a lease purchase option will be exercised, allowing it to carry forward the lease term as determined prior to adoption of ASC 842. Finally, the Company also elected the practical expedient related to land easements, which enabled it to continue its accounting treatment for land easements on existing agreements as of January 1, 2019. ASC 842 also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. A short-term lease is one with a term of 12 months or less, including any optional periods that are reasonably certain of exercise. For those leases that qualify, the exemption allows the Company to not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, including not recognizing ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases at transition. Short-term lease costs are recognized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term consistent with the Company’s prior accounting. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all current lease categories. The Company recognized operating lease liabilities of $648 million based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments determined under prior lease accounting standards and corresponding ROU assets of $588 million . The $ 60 million difference between operating lease liabilities and ROU assets recognized is due to deferred rent and exit cost accruals recorded under prior lease accounting standards. ASC 842 requires such balances to be reclassified against ROU assets at transition. In future periods such balances will not be presented separately. For arrangements where the Company is the lessor, the adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on its financial statements as the majority of its leases are operating leases embedded within managed services contracts. ASC 842 provides a practical expedient for lessors in which the lessor may elect, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component and, instead, to account for these components as a single component if both of the following are met: (1) the timing and pattern of transfer of the non-lease component(s) and associated lease component are the same and (2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. The accounting under the practical expedient depends on which component(s) is predominant in the contract. If the non-lease component is predominant, the single component is accounted under ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contract with Customers and accounting and disclosure under ASC 842 is not applicable. The Company has elected the above practical expedient and determined that non-lease components are predominant and is accounting for the single components as managed service contracts under ASC Topic 606.
