Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harley-Davidson, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Company), including the accounts of the groups of companies doing business as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). In addition, certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to secured financing are consolidated as the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. All of the Company’s subsidiaries are wholly owned and are included in the consolidated financial statements. Substantially all of the Company’s international subsidiaries use their respective local currency as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries have been translated at period-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses have been translated using average exchange rates for the period. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is different from an entity's functional currency are remeasured from the transactional currency to the entity's functional currency on a monthly basis. The effect of this remeasurement is reported in Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold. The pre-tax (loss) gain for foreign currency remeasurements was $(19.9) million , $15.0 million , and $(15.1) million for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company operates in two reportable segments: Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) and Financial Services. Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Marketable Securities – The Company’s marketable securities consisted of the following at December 31 (in thousands): 2018 2017 Certificate of deposit $ 10,007 $ — Mutual funds 44,243 48,006 Total marketable securities $ 54,250 $ 48,006 The Company’s certificates of deposit are carried at fair value with any unrealized gains or losses reported in other comprehensive income. The mutual fund investments are held by the Company to fund certain deferred compensation obligations. The mutual fund investments are carried at fair value with gains and losses recorded in net income and are included in other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Accounts Receivable, Net – The Company’s motorcycles and related products are sold to independent dealers outside the U.S. and Canada generally on open account and the resulting receivables are included in accounts receivable in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for doubtful accounts deducted from total accounts receivable was $4.0 million and $4.1 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Accounts receivable are written down once management determines that the specific customer does not have the ability to repay the balance in full. The Company’s sales of motorcycles and related products in the U.S. and Canada are financed by the purchasing dealers through HDFS and the related receivables are included in finance receivables in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance Receivables, Net – Finance receivables include both retail and wholesale finance receivables, net, including amounts held by consolidated VIEs. Finance receivables are recorded in the financial statements at amortized cost net of an allowance for credit losses. The provision for credit losses on finance receivables is charged to earnings in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level that is adequate to cover estimated losses of principal inherent in the existing portfolio. Portions of the allowance for credit losses are specified to cover estimated losses on finance receivables specifically identified for impairment. The unspecified portion of the allowance covers estimated losses on finance receivables which are collectively reviewed for impairment. Finance receivables are considered impaired when management determines it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement. The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a periodic and systematic collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The Company utilizes loss forecast models which consider a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss trends, origination or vintage analysis, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral, recovery rates and current economic conditions including items such as unemployment rates. Retail finance receivables are not evaluated individually for impairment prior to charge-off and therefore are not reported as impaired loans. The wholesale portfolio is primarily composed of large balance, non-homogeneous loans. The Company’s wholesale allowance evaluation is first based on a loan-by-loan review. A specific allowance for credit losses is established for wholesale finance receivables determined to be individually impaired when management concludes that the borrower will not be able to make full payment of contractual amounts due based on the original terms of the loan agreement. The impairment is determined based on the cash that the Company expects to receive discounted at the loan’s original interest rate or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral-dependent. Finance receivables in the wholesale portfolio that are not individually evaluated for impairment are segregated, based on similar risk characteristics, according to the Company’s internal risk rating system and collectively evaluated for impairment. The related allowance is based on factors such as the Company’s past loan loss experience, the specific borrower’s financial performance as well as ability to repay, current economic conditions and the value of the underlying collateral. Impaired finance receivables also include loans that have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as a concession to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Generally, it is the Company’s policy not to change the terms and conditions of finance receivables. However, to minimize the economic loss, the Company may modify certain impaired finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings. Total restructured finance receivables are not significant. Repossessed inventory representing recovered collateral on impaired finance receivables is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. In the period during which the collateral is repossessed, the related finance receivable is adjusted to the fair value of the collateral through a charge to the allowance for credit losses and reclassified to repossessed inventory. Repossessed inventory is included in other current assets and was $20.2 million and $19.6 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Asset-Backed Financing – The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities (SPE), which are considered VIEs under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing. The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE. In transactions where the Company has power over the significant activities of the VIE and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are potentially significant to the VIE, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the VIE within its consolidated financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the asset-backed financing is treated as a secured borrowing in this type of transaction and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing. In transactions where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company must determine whether it can achieve a sale for accounting purposes under ASC Topic 860, "Transfers and Servicing." To achieve a sale for accounting purposes, the assets being transferred must be legally isolated, not be constrained by restrictions from further transfer, and be deemed to be beyond the Company’s control. If the Company does not meet all these criteria for sale accounting, then the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing. If the Company meets all three of the sale criteria above, the transaction is recorded as a sale for accounting purposes and is referred to as an off-balance sheet asset-backed financing. Upon sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables are removed from the Company’s balance sheet and a gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized, and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain or loss on sale is included in Financial Services revenue in the consolidated statements of income. The Company is not required, and does not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to the on or off-balance sheet VIEs associated with these transactions. Investors and creditors in these transactions only have recourse to the assets held by the VIEs. Inventories – Substantially all inventories located in the United States are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Other inventories totaling $247.6 million and $234.9 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is determined on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The following useful lives are used to depreciate the various classes of property, plant and equipment: buildings – 30 years; building, equipment and land improvements – 7 years; machinery and equipment – 3 to 10 years; furniture and fixtures – 5 years; and software – 3 to 7 years. Accelerated methods of depreciation are used for income tax purposes. Goodwill – Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets purchased. Goodwill is tested for impairment, based on financial data related to the reporting unit to which it has been assigned, at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The impairment test involves comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting unit associated with the goodwill to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill must be adjusted to its implied fair value. During 2018 and 2017 , the Company performed a quantitative test on its goodwill balances for impairment and no adjustments were recorded to goodwill as a result of those reviews. Long-lived Assets – The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used when events and circumstances warrant such review. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset for assets to be held and used. The Company also reviews the useful life of its long-lived assets when events and circumstances indicate that the actual useful life may be shorter than originally estimated. In the event that the actual useful life is deemed to be shorter than the original useful life, depreciation is adjusted prospectively so that the remaining book value is depreciated over the revised useful life. Refer to Note 3 Restructuring Expenses. Asset groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, and a loss is recognized for any initial adjustment required to reduce the carrying amount to the fair value less cost to sell in the period the held for sale criteria are met. The fair value less cost to sell must be assessed each reporting period that the asset group remains classified as held for sale. Gains or losses not previously recognized resulting from the sale of an asset group will be recognized on the date of sale. Product Warranty and Recall – The Company currently provides a standard two -year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold worldwide, except for Japan, where the Company provides a standard three -year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold. In addition, the Company offers a one -year warranty for Parts & Accessories (P&A). The warranty coverage for the retail customer generally begins when the product is sold to a retail customer. The Company accrues for future warranty claims using an estimated cost based primarily on historical Company claim information. Additionally, the Company has from time-to-time initiated certain voluntary recall campaigns. The Company accrues for the estimated cost associated with voluntary recalls in the period that management approves and commits to the recall. Changes in the Company’s warranty and recall liability were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 Balance, beginning of period $ 94,200 $ 79,482 $ 74,217 Warranties issued during the period 53,367 57,834 60,215 Settlements made during the period (79,300 ) (82,554 ) (99,298 ) Recalls and changes to pre-existing warranty liabilities 63,473 39,438 44,348 Balance, end of period $ 131,740 $ 94,200 $ 79,482 The liability associated with recalls was $73.3 million , $35.3 million and $13.6 million at December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Derivative Financial Instruments – The Company is exposed to certain risks such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. All derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value (see Note 13). In accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges, along with the gain or loss on the hedged item, are recorded in current period earnings. For derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of gains and losses that result from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments is initially recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, at both the inception of each hedge and on an on-going basis, whether the derivatives that are used in its hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. Any ineffective portion is immediately recognized in earnings. No component of a hedging derivative instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded at fair value and any changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. Refer to Note 10 for a detailed description of the Company’s derivative instruments. Research and Development Expenses – Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged against income as incurred and included within selling, administrative and engineering expense in the consolidated statements of income. Research and development expenses were $191.6 million , $175.2 million and $172.3 million for 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Advertising Costs – The Company expenses the production cost of advertising the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising costs relate to the Company’s efforts to promote its products and brands through the use of media. During 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , the Company incurred $144.3 million , $135.5 million and $137.4 million in advertising costs, respectively. Shipping and Handling Costs – The Company classifies shipping and handling costs as a component of cost of goods sold. Share-Based Award Compensation Costs – The Company recognizes the cost of its share-based awards in its consolidated statements of income. The cost of each share-based equity award is based on the grant date fair value and the cost of each share-based cash-settled award is based on the settlement date fair value. Share-based award expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service or performance periods of the awards. The expense recognized reflects the number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest based on the service and, if applicable, performance requirements of each award. Total share-based award compensation expense recognized by the Company during 2018 , 2017 and 2016 was $35.5 million , $32.5 million and $32.3 million , respectively, or $27.2 million , $20.5 million and $20.4 million net of taxes, respectively. Income Tax Expense – The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. New Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Recently Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 on January 1, 2018. The Company applied the standard to all contracts using the modified retrospective method. As such, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of the adoption as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has not been adjusted. The majority of the Company’s Motorcycles and Related Products revenue will continue to be recognized when products are shipped to customers. For a limited number of vehicle sales where revenue was previously deferred due to a guaranteed resale value, the Company will now recognize revenue when those vehicles are shipped in accordance with ASU 2014-09. The Company recorded a net increase to the opening balance of retained earnings of $6.0 million , net of income taxes, as of January 1, 2018 as a result of adopting ASU 2014-09. The Company also adjusted other assets and accrued liabilities associated with these vehicle sales in connection with its adoption of ASU 2014-09. The majority of the Financial Services segment’s revenues relate to loan and servicing activities which are outside the scope of this guidance. Financial Services revenues that fall under the scope of ASU 2014-09 continue to be recognized at the point of sale, or over the estimated life of the contract, as appropriate. The following tables illustrate the impact of adoption of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated statement of income and the consolidated balance sheet (in thousands): Consolidated Statement of Income Twelve months ended December 31, 2018 As Reported Without Adoption of ASC 606 Effect of Change Revenue: Motorcycles and Related Products $ 4,968,646 $ 4,969,948 $ (1,302 ) Costs and expenses: Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold $ 3,351,796 $ 3,348,779 $ 3,017 Operating income $ 713,523 $ 717,842 $ (4,319 ) Income before provision for income taxes $ 686,629 $ 690,948 $ (4,319 ) Provision for income taxes $ 155,178 $ 156,225 $ (1,047 ) Net income $ 531,451 $ 534,723 $ (3,272 ) Consolidated Balance Sheet December 31, 2018 As Reported Without Adoption of ASC 606 Effect of Change ASSETS Other current assets $ 144,368 $ 163,841 $ (19,473 ) Deferred income taxes $ 141,464 $ 143,312 $ (1,848 ) LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Accrued liabilities $ 601,130 $ 625,203 $ (24,073 ) Retained earnings $ 2,007,583 $ 2,004,831 $ 2,752 In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07 Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (ASU 2017-07). ASU 2017-07 amends ASC 715, Compensation - Retirement Benefits by requiring employers to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Other components of the net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately from the line item that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income. The guidance also limits the components that are eligible for capitalization in assets. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 retrospectively on January 1, 2018. As a result, the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost have been presented in Other income (expense), net and the prior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation. The Company elected the practical expedient allowing the use of previously disclosed benefit components as the basis for the retrospective application. Net periodic benefit credit (cost) previously recorded in Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold and Selling, administrative and engineering expense of $10.6 million and $(1.4) million , respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 , and $6.2 million and $(3.6) million , respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 has been reclassified to Other income (expense), net. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (ASU 2016-18). ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As such, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis. As a result, the change in restricted cash has been excluded from financing activities and included in the change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and the prior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01). ASU 2016-01 enhances the existing financial instruments reporting model by modifying fair value measurement tools, simplifying impairment assessments for certain equity instruments and modifying overall presentation and disclosure requirements. The ASU was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-03, ASU No. 2018-04 and ASU No. 2018-09. The Company adopted ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (ASU 2016-15). ASU 2016-15 addresses eight specific cash flow items with the objective of reducing diversity in practice regarding how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (ASU 2016-16). ASU 2016-16 states that an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 on January 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2016-16 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). Under existing U.S. GAAP, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances are recorded as a component of income tax expense in the period in which the law was enacted. When deferred tax balances related to items originally recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income are adjusted, certain tax effects become stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amendments in this ASU also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption in any period is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 in December 2018 resulting in the reclassification of $108.3 million in stranded tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings. These reclassified stranded tax effects relate to the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate on the gross deferred tax amounts. The Company has elected the portfolio approach to release stranded income tax effects in AOCI. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20) (ASU 2018-14). The amendments in ASU 2018-14 modify the annual disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans. The FASB modified, added, and deleted specific disclosures in an effort to improve usefulness to financial statement users and reduce unnecessary costs for companies. The amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-14 in December 2018. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02). ASU 2016-02 amends the existing lease accounting model by requiring a lessee to recognize the rights and obligations resulting from certain leases as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 also requires a company to disclose key information about their leasing arrangements. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach. Pursuant to ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, the Company plans to apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance sheet in the period of adoption. The Company has elected the practical expedients upon transition that allow entities not to reassess lease identification, classification and initial direct costs for leases that existed prior to adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the initial recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities related to the Company's leasing arrangements totaling approximately $60 million . In July 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 changes how to recognize expected credit losses on financial assets. The standard requires a more timely recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial assets and also provides additional transparency about credit risk. The current credit loss standard generally requires that a loss actually be incurred before it is recognized, while the new standard will require recognition of full lifetime expected losses upon initial recognition of the financial instrument. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2016-13 for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. An entity should apply the standard by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption. Adoption of this standard will impact how the Company recognizes credit losses on its financial instruments. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2016-13 but anticipates the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will result in an increase in the annual provision for credit losses and the related allowance for credit losses. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (ASU 2017-04). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill. Rather, the goodwill impairment is calculated by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value, and an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, limited to the total goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. All reporting units apply the same impairment test under the new standard. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2017-04 for its annual and any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12). ASU 2017-12 amends ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships and to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The ASU makes various updates to the hedge accounting model, including changing the recognition and presentation of changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument and amending disclosure requirements, among other things. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2017-12 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the ASU. For cash flow and net investment hedges existing at the date of adoption, the Company must apply a cumulative effect adjustment as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the standard is adopted. The amendments related to presentation and disclosure are required prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2017-12 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). ASU 2018-13 amends ASC 820 to eliminate, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any period, either for the whole standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The amendments are required to be applie |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue from Contract with Customer | Revenue The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or service to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred. Taxes that are collected from a customer concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The following table includes revenue disaggregated by major source (in thousands): Twelve months ended December 31, 2018 Motorcycles and Related Products: Motorcycles $ 3,882,963 Parts & Accessories 754,663 General Merchandise 241,964 Licensing 38,676 Other 50,380 Revenue from Motorcycles and Related Products 4,968,646 Financial Services: Interest income 645,985 Securitization and servicing fee income 1,136 Other income 101,108 Revenue from Financial Services 748,229 Total revenue $ 5,716,875 The following is a description of principal activities from which the Company generates its revenue, by reportable segment. Motorcycles and Related Products Motorcycles, Parts & Accessories, and General Merchandise - Sales of motorcycles, parts & accessories, and general merchandise are recorded when control is transferred to wholesale customers (independent dealers). This generally takes place upon shipment of the products. The sale of products to independent dealers outside the U.S. and Canada is generally on open account with terms that generally approximate 30 - 120 days and the resulting receivables are included in accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. The sale of products in the U.S. and Canada is financed by the purchasing dealers through HDFS and the related receivables are included in finance receivables in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company offers sales incentive programs to dealers and retail customers designed to promote the sale of motorcycles, parts & accessories, and general merchandise. The Company estimates its variable consideration related to motorcycles and related products sold under its sales incentive programs using the expected value method. Further, the Company accounts for consideration payable to a customer as part of its sales incentives as a reduction of revenue, which is accrued at the later of the date the related sale is recorded or the date the incentive program is both approved and communicated. The Company offers to its dealers the right to return eligible parts & accessories and general merchandise. When the Company offers a right to return, it estimates returns based on an analysis of historical trends and records revenue on the initial sale only in the amount that it expects to be entitled. The remaining consideration is deferred in a refund liability account. The refund liability is remeasured for changes in the estimate at each reporting date with a corresponding adjustment to revenue. Variable consideration related to sales incentives and rights to return is adjusted at the earliest of when the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive changes or the consideration becomes fixed. Adjustments for variable consideration related to previously recognized sales decreased revenue by an immaterial amount during 2018 . Shipping and handling costs associated with freight after control of a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs. The Company accrues for the shipping and handling in the same period that the related revenue is recognized. The Company offers standard, limited warranties on its motorcycles and parts & accessories. These warranties provide assurance that the product will function as expected and are not separate performance obligations. The Company accounts for estimated warranty costs as a liability when control of the product transfers to the customer. Licensing - The Company licenses the name “Harley-Davidson” and other trademarks owned by the Company and collects royalties from its customers (licensees). The trademark licenses are considered symbolic intellectual property, which grant the customer a right to access the Company’s intellectual property. The Company satisfies its performance obligation over the license period, as the Company fulfills its promise to grant the customer rights to use and benefit from the intellectual property as well as maintain the intellectual property. Payment is typically due within thirty days of the end of each quarter, for the royalties earned in that quarter. Revenue, in the form of sales-based royalties, is recognized when the customers’ subsequent sales occur. The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-55-18 to recognize licensing revenues in the amount that the Company has the right to invoice because the royalties due each period correspond directly with the value of the Company’s performance to date. Revenue will be recognized over the remaining contract terms which range up to 6 years. Other Revenue - Other Revenue consists primarily of revenue from Harley Ownership Group (H.O.G.) membership sales, motorcycle rental commissions, dealer software sales, museum admissions and events, and other miscellaneous products and services. Financial Services Interest income - Interest income on finance receivables is recorded as earned and is based on the average outstanding daily balance for wholesale and retail receivables. Accrued and uncollected interest is classified with finance receivables. Certain loan origination costs related to finance receivables, including payments made to dealers for certain retail loans, are deferred and recorded within finance receivables and amortized over the estimated life of the contract. Securitization and servicing fee income - Securitization and servicing fee income consists of revenue from servicing and ancillary fees associated with HDFS' off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transaction. Refer to Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion regarding asset-backed financing. Other income - Other income consists primarily of insurance and licensing revenues. HDFS works with certain unaffiliated insurance companies to offer motorcycle insurance and protection products through most Harley-Davidson dealers in the U.S. and Canada. HDFS also works with third-party financial institutions that issue credit cards or offer other financial products bearing the Harley-Davidson brand in the U.S and internationally. For many of these contracts, the Company grants temporary rights to use the licensed trademarks owned by the Company and collects royalties from its customers in connection with sales of their products. The trademark licenses are considered symbolic intellectual property, which grant the customer a right to access the intellectual property. The Company satisfies its performance obligation over the license period, as it fulfills its promise to grant the customer rights to use and benefit from the intellectual property as well as maintain the intellectual property. Royalty and profit sharing amounts are received either quarterly or per annum, based upon the contract. Revenue, in the form of sales-based royalties, is recognized when the customers’ subsequent sales occur. Revenue will be recognized over the remaining contract terms which range up to 5 years. The Company is the primary obligor for certain other insurance related contracts and, as a result, revenue is recognized over the life of the contract as the Company fulfills its performance obligation. Contract Liabilities Deferred revenue relates to payments received at contract inception in advance of the Company’s performance under the contract and generally relates to the sale of H.O.G. memberships and extended service plan contracts. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue as the Company performs under the contract. On January 1, 2018, $23.4 million of deferred revenue was included in Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. $19.6 million of previously deferred revenue was recognized in 2018. At December 31, 2018, the unearned revenue balance was $29.1 million . The Company expects to recognize approximately $15.3 million of the remaining unearned revenue in 2019 and $13.8 million thereafter. |

Restructuring Cost and Reserve | |
Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure | Restructuring Expenses In January 2018, the Company initiated a plan to further improve its manufacturing operations and cost structure by commencing a multi-year manufacturing optimization plan which includes the consolidation of its motorcycle assembly plant in Kansas City, Missouri, into its plant in York, Pennsylvania, and the closure of its wheel operations in Adelaide, Australia (Manufacturing Optimization Plan). As the U.S. operations are consolidated, the Company expects approximately 800 jobs will be eliminated with the closure of Kansas City operations and approximately 450 jobs will be added in York through 2019. Approximately 90 jobs will be eliminated in Adelaide. The Company expects to incur restructuring and other consolidation costs of $152 million to $162 million in the Motorcycles segment related to the Manufacturing Optimization Plan through 2019, of which approximately 70% will be cash charges. The current Manufacturing Optimization Plan cost estimate has been revised down from the prior estimate by $3 million and $23 million at the low and high ends of the range, respectively. The current estimate includes $129 million to $134 million of restructuring expense and $23 million to $28 million of costs related to temporary inefficiencies. The Company expects restructuring expenses to include the cost of employee termination benefits, accelerated depreciation, and other project implementation costs of $40 million to $41 million , $51 million to $53 million , and $38 million to $40 million , respectively. In November 2018, the Company implemented a reorganization of its workforce (Reorganization Plan). As a result, approximately 70 employees left the Company on an involuntary basis. The Company incurred restructuring expenses of $3.9 million related to this action during 2018. Restructuring expense related to these plans is recorded as a separate line item in the consolidated statement of income and the accrued restructuring liability is recorded in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company expects these plans to be completed by mid-2019. Changes in the accrued restructuring liability were as follows (in thousands): Twelve months ended December 31, 2018 Manufacturing Optimization Plan Reorganization Plan Employee Termination Benefits Accelerated Depreciation Other Total Employee Termination Benefits Total Balance, beginning of period $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — Restructuring expense 38,666 34,654 16,182 89,502 3,899 93,401 Utilized - cash (13,060 ) — (16,095 ) (29,155 ) (444 ) (29,599 ) Utilized - non cash — (34,654 ) — (34,654 ) — (34,654 ) Foreign currency changes (648 ) — (8 ) (656 ) 6 (650 ) Balance, end of period $ 24,958 $ — $ 79 $ 25,037 $ 3,461 $ 28,498 During 2018, the Company incurred $12.9 million of incremental cost of goods sold due to temporary inefficiencies related to implementing the Manufacturing Optimization Plan. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes During 2017, the Company recorded income tax expense of $53.1 million in connection with the enactment of the "Tax Cuts and Jobs Act" (2017 Tax Act), all of which the Company regarded as provisional under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (SAB 118). The Company's provisional income tax expense included the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, a one-time transition tax related to undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were not previously taxed, the write-off of foreign tax credit deferred tax assets related to withholding tax on foreign dividend payments, state tax estimates related to the conformity of federal tax law changes and other smaller items. The Company completed its accounting for all of the initial income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act during 2018 which resulted in a reduction to income tax expense during 2018 of $1.5 million . The 2017 Tax Act also subjects U.S. shareholders to current tax on global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) earned by certain foreign subsidiaries for which a company can elect to either recognize deferred taxes or to provide tax expense in the year incurred. The Company has elected to account for GILTI in the year the tax is incurred. Provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31 consists of the following (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 Current: Federal $ 136,202 $ 245,189 $ 284,489 State 23,134 24,898 28,406 Foreign 29,823 21,138 19,017 189,159 291,225 331,912 Deferred: Federal (23,181 ) 47,046 (4,250 ) State (6,787 ) 2,688 7,038 Foreign (4,013 ) 1,121 (2,953 ) (33,981 ) 50,855 (165 ) Total $ 155,178 $ 342,080 $ 331,747 The components of income before income taxes for the years ended December 31 were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 Domestic $ 593,099 $ 788,878 $ 954,138 Foreign 93,530 74,961 69,773 Total $ 686,629 $ 863,839 $ 1,023,911 The provision for income taxes differs from the amount that would be provided by applying the statutory U.S. corporate income tax rate due to the following items for the years ended December 31: 2018 2017 2016 Provision at statutory rate 21.0 % 35.0 % 35.0 % State taxes, net of federal benefit 2.6 1.9 1.8 Foreign rate differential 0.4 (0.8 ) (0.6 ) Domestic manufacturing deduction — (2.2 ) (2.1 ) Foreign derived intangible income (1.2 ) — — Research and development credit (1.1 ) (0.7 ) (0.4 ) Unrecognized tax benefits including interest and penalties (0.6 ) 2.3 (1.3 ) Valuation allowance adjustments 0.1 (0.1 ) 0.1 Deferred tax balance remeasurement for rate change (1.2 ) 5.5 — Territorial tax 1.4 (0.1 ) — Global intangible low-taxed income 0.4 — — Adjustments for previously accrued taxes (1.0 ) (1.2 ) 0.2 Rate differential on intercompany transfers 0.9 — — Executive compensation limitation 0.5 — — Other 0.4 — (0.3 ) Provision for income taxes 22.6 % 39.6 % 32.4 % The principal components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31 include the following (in thousands): 2018 2017 Deferred tax assets: Accruals not yet tax deductible $ 108,284 $ 92,158 Pension and postretirement benefit plan obligations 48,347 37,357 Stock compensation 13,295 12,669 Net operating loss carryforward 34,842 33,171 Valuation allowance (21,868 ) (21,561 ) Other, net 43,870 52,422 226,770 206,216 Deferred tax liabilities: Depreciation, tax in excess of book (79,326 ) (88,989 ) Other (5,980 ) (8,154 ) (85,306 ) (97,143 ) Total $ 141,464 $ 109,073 The Company reviews its deferred tax asset valuation allowances on a quarterly basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that a review is required. In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidated group recording the net deferred tax asset is considered, along with any positive or negative evidence including tax law changes. Since future financial results and tax law may differ from previous estimates, periodic adjustments to the Company’s valuation allowances may be necessary. At December 31, 2018 , the Company had approximately $270.4 million of gross state operating loss carryforwards expiring in 2031 . At December 31, 2018 , the Company also had Wisconsin research and development credit carryforwards of $11.4 million expiring in 2024-2028 . The Company had a deferred tax asset of $25.9 million as of December 31, 2018 for the benefit of these losses and credits. A valuation allowance of $2.9 million was established against the deferred tax asset, which is a decrease of $1.6 million from the prior year. The Company had foreign net operating losses (NOL) totaling $8.9 million as of December 31, 2018 . It had a valuation allowance of $18.9 million against both the NOLs and other deferred tax assets of $10.0 million . The valuation allowance on foreign net operating losses increased by $1.8 million , reflecting movement related to realizability assessment on additional earnings and loss, as well as movements related to foreign currency rates. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. Changes in the Company’s gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 Unrecognized tax benefits, beginning of period $ 72,230 $ 55,539 Increase in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in a prior period 940 9,513 Decrease in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in a prior period (9,783 ) (3,749 ) Increase in unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken in the current period 3,355 13,779 Settlements with taxing authorities (5,331 ) (2,852 ) Unrecognized tax benefits, end of period $ 61,411 $ 72,230 The amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2018 that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate was $53.7 million . The total gross amount of benefit related to interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits recognized during 2018 in the Company’s consolidated statement of income was $3.2 million . The total gross amount of interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits recognized at December 31, 2018 in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet was $27.7 million . The Company does not expect a significant increase or decrease to the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits related to continuing operations during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. However, the Company is under regular audit by tax authorities. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns and that its annual tax provision includes amounts sufficient to pay any assessments. Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year. The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and Wisconsin state jurisdictions and various other state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for Wisconsin state income taxes before 2014 or for U.S. federal income taxes before 2014. The Company is currently under audit for U.S. federal income taxes for years 2015 and 2016. |

The Company has a share-based compensation plan under which employees may be granted share-based awards, including restricted stock units (RSUs). Non-forfeitable dividend equivalents are paid on unvested RSUs. As such, RSUs are considered participating securities under the two-class method of calculating earnings per share as described in ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” The two-class method of calculating earnings per share did not have a material impact on the Company’s earnings per share calculation as of December 31, 2018 , 2017 and 2016 . |

Wholesale loans to dealers are generally secured by financed inventory or property and are originated in the U.S. and Canada. Wholesale finance receivables are related primarily to motorcycles and related parts and accessories sales. The Company provides retail financial services to customers of the Company’s independent dealers in the U.S. and Canada. The origination of retail loans is a separate and distinct transaction between the Company and the retail customer, unrelated to the Company’s sale of product to its dealers. Retail finance receivables consist of secured promissory notes and secured installment contracts and are primarily related to sales of motorcycles to the dealers’ customers. The Company holds either titles or liens on titles to vehicles financed by promissory notes and installment sales contracts. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , approximately 11% of gross outstanding retail finance receivables were originated in Texas; there were no other states that accounted for more than 10% of gross outstanding retail finance receivables. Unused lines of credit extended to the Company's wholesale finance customers totaled $1.21 billion and $1.27 billion at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Approved but unfunded retail finance loans totaled $154.8 million and $166.3 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Wholesale finance receivables are generally contractually due within one year. On December 31, 2018 , contractual maturities of finance receivables were as follows (in thousands): United States Canada Total 2019 $ 2,132,189 $ 122,684 $ 2,254,873 2020 1,209,886 49,746 1,259,632 2021 1,289,673 53,916 1,343,589 2022 1,418,813 58,437 1,477,250 2023 1,051,626 15,699 1,067,325 Thereafter 9,147 — 9,147 Total $ 7,111,334 $ 300,482 $ 7,411,816 The allowance for credit losses on finance receivables is comprised of individual components relating to wholesale and retail finance receivables.

As retail finance receivables are collectively and not individually reviewed for impairment, this portfolio does not have specifically impaired finance receivables. At December 31, 2018 and 2017 , there were no wholesale finance receivables that were on non-accrual status or individually deemed to be impaired under ASC Topic 310, “Receivables.” An analysis of the aging of past due finance receivables at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): 2018 Current 31-60 Days Past Due 61-90 Days Past Due Greater than 90 Days Past Due Total Past Due Total Finance Receivables Retail $ 6,100,186 $ 136,945 $ 49,825 $ 41,245 $ 228,015 $ 6,328,201 Wholesale 1,081,729 522 273 1,091 1,886 1,083,615 Total $ 7,181,915 $ 137,467 $ 50,098 $ 42,336 $ 229,901 $ 7,411,816 2017 Current 31-60 Days Past Due 61-90 Days Past Due Greater than 90 Days Past Due Total Past Due Total Finance Receivables Retail $ 5,913,473 $ 139,629 $ 47,539 $ 39,959 $ 227,127 $ 6,140,600 Wholesale 1,016,000 595 245 117 957 1,016,957 Total $ 6,929,473 $ 140,224 $ 47,784 $ 40,076 $ 228,084 $ 7,157,557 The recorded investment of retail and wholesale finance receivables, excluding non-accrual status finance receivables, that were contractually past due 90 days or more at December 31 for the past five years was as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 United States $ 41,285 $ 39,051 $ 39,399 $ 31,677 $ 27,800 Canada 1,051 1,025 1,326 1,192 1,118 Total $ 42,336 $ 40,076 $ 40,725 $ 32,869 $ 28,918 A significant part of managing the Company's finance receivable portfolios includes the assessment of credit risk associated with each borrower. As the credit risk varies between the retail and wholesale portfolios, the Company utilizes different credit risk indicators for each portfolio. The Company manages retail credit risk through its credit approval policy and ongoing collection efforts. The Company uses FICO scores, a standard credit rating measurement, to differentiate the expected default rates of retail credit applicants, enabling the Company to better evaluate credit applicants for approval and to tailor pricing according to this assessment. Retail loans with a FICO score of 640 or above at origination are considered prime, and loans with a FICO score below 640 are considered sub-prime. These credit quality indicators are determined at the time of loan origination and are not updated subsequent to the loan origination date. The recorded investment of retail finance receivables, by credit quality indicator, at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 Prime $ 5,183,754 $ 4,966,193 Sub-prime 1,144,447 1,174,407 Total $ 6,328,201 $ 6,140,600 The Company's credit risk on the wholesale portfolio is different from that of the retail portfolio. Whereas the retail portfolio represents a relatively homogeneous pool of retail finance receivables that exhibit more consistent loss patterns, the wholesale portfolio exposures are less consistent. The Company utilizes an internal credit risk rating system to manage credit risk exposure consistently across wholesale borrowers and evaluates credit risk factors for each borrower. The Company uses the following internal credit quality indicators, based on an internal risk rating system, listed from highest level of risk to lowest level of risk, for the wholesale portfolio: Doubtful, Substandard, Special Mention, Medium Risk and Low Risk. Based upon management’s review, the dealers classified in the Doubtful category are the dealers with the greatest likelihood of being charged-off, while the dealers classified as Low Risk are least likely to be charged-off. The internal rating system considers factors such as the specific borrower's ability to repay and the estimated value of any collateral. Dealer risk rating classifications are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis. The recorded investment of wholesale finance receivables, by internal credit quality indicator, at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 Doubtful $ 2,210 $ 688 Substandard 9,660 3,837 Special Mention 10,299 26,866 Medium Risk 25,802 9,917 Low Risk 1,035,644 975,649 Total $ 1,083,615 $ 1,016,957 |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company is exposed to certain risks such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and commodity price risk. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. All derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. In accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges, along with the gain or loss on the hedged item, are recorded in current period earnings. For derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of gains and losses that result from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments is initially recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, both at the inception of each hedge and on an on-going basis, whether the derivatives that are used in its hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. Any ineffective portion is immediately recognized in earnings. No component of a hedging derivative instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded at fair value, and any changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. The Company sells its products internationally, and in most markets those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, the Company’s earnings can be affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currency. The Company utilizes foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate the effects of the Euro, the Australian dollar, the Japanese yen, the Brazilian real, the Canadian dollar and the Mexican peso. The foreign currency exchange contracts are entered into with banks and allow the Company to exchange a specified amount of foreign currency for U.S. dollars at a future date, based on a fixed exchange rate. The Company utilizes commodity contracts to hedge portions of the cost of certain commodities consumed in the Company’s motorcycle production and distribution operations. The Company’s foreign currency exchange contracts and commodity contracts generally have maturities of less than one year. The Company periodically utilizes treasury rate lock contracts to fix the interest rate on a portion of the principal related to the anticipated issuance of long-term debt. To the extent effective, the gains and losses on the fair value of the treasury rate lock are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss until the forecasted debt is issued. Gains and losses are subsequently reclassified into earnings over the life of the debt. The Company periodically utilizes interest rate swaps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on its long-term debt.

A summary of the Company’s expected principal payments for debt obligations as of December 31, 2018 is as follows (in thousands): 2019 $ 2,717,597 2020 1,562,889 2021 1,570,815 2022 578,256 2023 440,137 Thereafter 750,000 Total $ 7,619,694 Commercial paper maturities may range up to 365 days from the issuance date. The weighted-average interest rate of outstanding commercial paper balances was 2.79% and 1.48% at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. In April 2018, the Company entered into a $780.0 million five -year credit facility to replace the $675.0 million five -year credit facility that was due to mature in April 2019 and also terminated the $100.0 million 364 -day credit facility that would have matured at the end of April 2018. The new five -year credit facility matures in April 2023. The Company also has a $765.0 million five -year credit facility which matures in April 2021. The two five-year credit facilities (together, the Global Credit Facilities) bear interest at variable rates, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on certain criteria, such as credit ratings. The Global Credit Facilities also require the Company to pay a fee based on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitments under the Global Credit Facilities. The Global Credit Facilities are committed facilities primarily used to support the Company's unsecured commercial paper program. In May 2018, the Company renewed its $25.0 million 364 -day credit facility that was due to mature in that month. The $25.0 million credit facility bears interest at variable interest rates, and the Company pays a fee based on the unused portion of the $25.0 million commitment. This credit facility matures in May 2019. The fixed-rate Notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and the floating-rate Notes provide for quarterly interest payments. Principal on the Notes is due at maturity. During June 2018 , $877.5 million of 6.80% medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. During March and November 2017, $400.0 million of 2.70% and $400.0 million of 1.55% medium-term notes matured, respectively, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. HDFS and the Company are subject to various operating and financial covenants related to the credit facilities and various operating covenants under the Notes and the U.S. and Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. The more significant covenants are described below. The operating covenants limit the Company’s and HDFS’ ability to: • Assume or incur certain liens; • Participate in certain mergers or consolidations; and • Purchase or hold margin stock. Under the current financial covenants of the Global Credit Facilities, the ratio of HDFS's consolidated debt, excluding secured debt, to HDFS's consolidated shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), cannot exceed 10.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. In addition, the ratio of the Company's consolidated debt to the Company's consolidated debt and consolidated shareholders’ equity (where the Company's consolidated debt in each case excludes that of HDFS and its subsidiaries, and the Company's consolidated shareholders’ equity excludes accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)), cannot exceed 0.7 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. No financial covenants are required under the Notes or the U.S. or Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. At December 31, 2018 and 2017 , HDFS and the Company remained in compliance with all of these covenants. |

Asset-Backed Financing | Asset-Backed Financing The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. See Note 1 for more information on the Company's accounting for asset-backed financings and VIEs. The following table shows the assets and liabilities related to the on-balance sheet asset-backed financings included in the financial statements at December 31 (in thousands): 2018 Finance receivables Allowance for credit losses Restricted cash Other assets Total assets Asset-backed debt On-balance sheet assets and liabilities Consolidated VIEs Asset-backed securitizations $ 158,718 $ (4,691 ) $ 17,191 $ 329 $ 171,547 $ 95,167 Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities 631,588 (18,733 ) 30,012 1,234 644,101 582,717 Unconsolidated VIEs Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduit facility 181,774 (3,130 ) 8,779 343 187,766 155,951 Total on-balance sheet assets and liabilities $ 972,080 $ (26,554 ) $ 55,982 $ 1,906 $ 1,003,414 $ 833,835 2017 Finance receivables Allowance for credit losses Restricted cash Other assets Total assets Asset-backed debt On-balance sheet assets and liabilities Consolidated VIEs Asset-backed securitizations $ 439,301 $ (13,686 ) $ 34,919 $ 1,260 $ 461,794 $ 352,624 Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities 300,530 (9,392 ) 13,787 888 305,813 279,457 Unconsolidated VIEs Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduit facility 203,691 (3,746 ) 9,983 470 210,398 174,779 Total on-balance sheet assets and liabilities $ 943,522 $ (26,824 ) $ 58,689 $ 2,618 $ 978,005 $ 806,860 On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs The Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs which in turn issue secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. Each on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE is a separate legal entity and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitizations are only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transactions and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors until the associated secured debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the SPEs are used only to support the securitizations. There are no amortization schedules for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes’ contractual lives have various maturities during 2022. The Company is the primary beneficiary of its on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIEs because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIEs in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE. There were no on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during 2018 or 2017. At December 31, 2018 , the Company's consolidated balance sheet included outstanding balances related to the following secured notes with the related maturity dates and interest rates (in thousands): Issue Date Principal Amount at Date of Issuance Weighted-Average Rate at Date of Issuance Contractual Maturity Date May 2015 $500,000 0.88% May 2016 - December 2022 January 2015 $700,000 0.89% February 2016 - August 2022 In addition, outstanding balances related to the following secured notes included in the Company's consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017 were repaid during 2018 (in thousands): Issue Date Principal Amount at Date of Issuance Weighted-Average Rate at Date of Issuance Contractual Maturity Date April 2014 $850,000 0.66% April 2015 - October 2021 For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 , interest expense on the secured notes was $3.2 million and $7.9 million , respectively, which is included in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions was 1.67% and 1.53% at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE The Company has agreements with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits under which it may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. On November 30, 2018 , the Company renewed its existing $600.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Also on that date, the Company amended its existing $300.0 million revolving facility agreement with third-party bank-sponsored asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits, increasing the aggregate commitment to $600.0 million. The aggregate commitment under this agreement will be reduced monthly as collections on the related finance receivables are applied to the outstanding principal until the outstanding principal balance is less than or equal to $300.0 million, at which point the aggregate commitment will equal $300.0 million. Availability under the revolving facilities (together, the U.S. Conduit Facilities) is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral. Under the U.S. Conduit Facilities, the assets of the SPE are restricted as collateral for the payment of the debt or other obligations arising in the transaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates or LIBOR to the extent the advance is not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper plus, in each case, a program fee based on outstanding principal. The U.S. Conduit Facilities also provide for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt will be reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facilities, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 5 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, the U.S. Conduit Facilities have an expiration date of November 29, 2019 . The Company is the primary beneficiary of its U.S. Conduit Facilities VIE because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE. The following table includes quarterly transfers of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to the U.S. Conduit Facilities and the respective proceeds (in thousands): 2018 2017 Transfers Proceeds Transfers Proceeds First quarter $ 32,900 $ 29,300 $ 333,400 $ 300,000 Second quarter 59,100 53,300 28,200 24,000 Third quarter — — 34,100 29,600 Fourth quarter 400,200 356,800 34,000 29,700 $ 492,200 $ 439,400 $ 429,700 $ 383,300 For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 , interest expense under the U.S. Conduit Facilities was $10.9 million and $7.1 million , respectively, which is included in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding U.S. Conduit Facilities was 3.26% and 2.33% at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively . On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility In June 2018, the Company renewed its facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$220.0 million . The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of debt. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$220.0 million . There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 5 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, the Canadian Conduit expires on June 28, 2019 . The following table includes quarterly transfers of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit and the respective proceeds (in thousands): 2018 2017 Transfers Proceeds Transfers Proceeds First quarter $ 7,600 $ 6,200 $ 6,300 $ 5,500 Second quarter 38,900 32,200 14,200 12,400 Third quarter — — — — Fourth quarter 39,000 32,200 84,900 69,100 $ 85,500 $ 70,600 $ 105,400 $ 87,000 For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 , interest expense on the Canadian Conduit was $3.8 million and $2.6 million , respectively, which is included in Financial Services interest expense. The weighted average interest rate of the outstanding Canadian Conduit was 2.68% and 1.96% at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE; therefore, the Company does not consolidate the VIE. However, the Company treats the conduit facility as a secured borrowing as it maintains effective control over the assets transferred to the VIE and therefore does not meet the requirements for sale accounting. As the Company participates in and does not consolidate the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE, the maximum exposure to loss associated with this VIE, which would only be incurred in the unlikely event that all the finance receivables and underlying collateral have no residual value, is $31.8 million at December 31, 2018 . The maximum exposure is not an indication of the Company's expected loss exposure. Off-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIE There were no off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 . During the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold retail motorcycle finance receivables with a principal balance of $301.8 million into a securitization VIE that was not consolidated, recognized a gain of $9.3 million and received cash proceeds of $312.6 million . Similar to an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company transferred U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which in turn issued secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE is a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization are only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. In an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As part of this off-balance sheet securitization, the Company did not retain any financial interest in the VIE beyond servicing rights and ordinary representations and warranties and related covenants. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE because it only retained servicing rights and does not have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE which could potentially be significant to the VIE. Accordingly, this transaction met the accounting sale requirements under ASC Topic 860 and was recorded as a sale for accounting purposes. Upon the sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables were removed from the Company’s balance sheet and a gain was recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain on sale was included in Financial Services revenue in the consolidated statement of income. At December 31, 2018 , the assets of this off-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIE were $79.6 million and represented the current unpaid principal balance of the retail motorcycle finance receivables, which was the Company’s maximum exposure to loss in the off-balance sheet VIE at December 31, 2018 . This is based on the unlikely event that all the receivables have underwriting defects or other defects that trigger a violation of certain covenants and that the underlying collateral has no residual value. This maximum exposure is not an indication of expected losses. Servicing Activities The Company services all retail motorcycle finance receivables that it originates. When the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs through asset-backed financings, the Company retains the right to service the finance receivables and receives servicing fees based on the securitized finance receivables balance and certain ancillary fees. In on-balance sheet asset-backed financing, servicing fees are eliminated in consolidation and therefore are not recorded on a consolidated basis. In off-balance sheet asset-backed financings, servicing fees and ancillary fees are recorded in Financial Services revenue in the consolidated statements of income. The fees the Company is paid for servicing represent adequate compensation and, consequently, the Company does not recognize a servicing asset or liability. The Company recognized servicing fee income of $1.1 million and $1.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. The unpaid principal balance of serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 On-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables $ 6,185,350 $ 5,993,185 Off-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables 79,613 146,425 Total serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables $ 6,264,963 $ 6,139,610 The balance of serviced finance receivables 30 days or more delinquent at December 31 was as follows (in thousands): Amount 30 days or more past due: 2018 2017 On-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables $ 228,015 $ 227,127 Off-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables 1,658 2,106 Total serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables $ 229,673 $ 229,233 Credit losses, net of recoveries for the serviced finance receivables for the years ended December 31 were as follows (in thousands): 2018 2017 On-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables $ 109,448 $ 113,316 Off-balance sheet retail motorcycle finance receivables 907 1,191 Total serviced retail motorcycle finance receivables $ 110,355 $ 114,507 |

Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy. Level 1 inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and yield curves. The Company uses the market approach to derive the fair value for its Level 2 fair value measurements. Forward contracts for foreign currency, commodities, and treasury rate locks are valued using quoted forward rates and prices; interest rate swaps are valued using quoted interest rates and yield curves; investments in marketable securities and cash equivalents are valued using quoted prices. Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include management's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Recurring Fair Value Measurements The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31 (in thousands): 2018 Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets: Cash equivalents $ 998,601 $ 728,800 $ 269,801 $ — Marketable securities 54,250 44,243 10,007 — Derivatives 15,071 — 15,071 — Total $ 1,067,922 $ 773,043 $ 294,879 $ — Liabilities: Derivatives $ 5,316 $ — $ 5,316 $ — 2017 Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets: Cash equivalents $ 488,432 $ 358,500 $ 129,932 $ — Marketable securities 48,006 48,006 — — Derivatives 1,769 — 1,769 — Total $ 538,207 $ 406,506 $ 131,701 $ — Liabilities: Derivatives $ 21,308 $ — $ 21,308 $ — Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements Repossessed inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value through a nonrecurring fair value measurement. Repossessed inventory was $20.2 million and $19.6 million , for which the fair value adjustment was $9.7 million and $9.0 million , at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Fair value is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on the recent market values of repossessed inventory. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Measured at Cost The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates their fair values. The following table summarizes the fair value and carrying value of the Company’s remaining financial instruments that are measured at cost or amortized cost at December 31 (in thousands): 2018 2017 Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Assets: Finance receivables, net $ 7,304,334 $ 7,221,931 $ 7,021,549 $ 6,965,086 Liabilities: Unsecured commercial paper $ 1,135,810 $ 1,135,810 $ 1,273,482 $ 1,273,482 Asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facilities $ 582,717 $ 582,717 $ 279,457 $ 279,457 Asset-backed Canadian commercial paper conduit facility $ 155,951 $ 155,951 $ 174,779 $ 174,779 Medium-term notes $ 4,829,671 $ 4,887,007 $ 4,189,092 $ 4,165,706 Senior unsecured notes $ 707,198 $ 742,624 $ 784,433 $ 741,961 Asset-backed securitization debt $ 94,974 $ 95,167 $ 351,767 $ 352,624 Finance Receivables, Net – The carrying value of retail and wholesale finance receivables in the financial statements is amortized cost less an allowance for credit losses. The fair value of retail finance receivables is generally calculated by discounting future cash flows using an estimated discount rate that reflects current credit, interest rate and prepayment risks associated with similar types of instruments. Fair value is determined based on Level 3 inputs. The amortized cost basis of wholesale finance receivables approximates fair value because they either are short-term or have interest rates that adjust with changes in market interest rates. Debt – The carrying value of debt in the financial statements is generally amortized cost, net of discounts and debt issuance costs. The carrying value of unsecured commercial paper calculated using Level 2 inputs approximates fair value due to its short maturity. The carrying value of debt provided under the U.S. conduit facilities and Canadian conduit facility calculated using Level 2 inputs approximates fair value since the interest rates charged under the facility are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change. The fair values of the medium-term notes and senior unsecured notes are estimated based upon rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is estimated based on pricing currently available for transactions with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 inputs). |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Employee Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits | Employee Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits The Company has a qualified defined benefit pension plan and postretirement healthcare benefit plans, which cover employees of the Motorcycles segment. The Company also has unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan agreements (SERPA) with certain employees which were instituted to replace benefits lost under the Tax Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993. Pension benefits are based primarily on years of service and, for certain plans, levels of compensation. Employees are eligible to receive postretirement healthcare benefits upon attaining age 55 after rendering at least 10 years of service to the Company. Some of the plans require employee contributions to partially offset benefit costs. Obligations and Funded Status: The following table provides the changes in the benefit obligations, fair value of plan assets and funded status of the Company’s pension, SERPA and postretirement healthcare plans as of the Company’s December 31, 2018 and 2017 measurement dates (in thousands): Pension and SERPA Benefits Postretirement Healthcare Benefits 2018 2017 2018 2017 Change in benefit obligation: Benefit obligation, beginning of period $ 2,201,021 $ 1,986,435 $ 338,488 $ 346,431 Service cost 32,340 31,584 7,180 7,500 Interest cost 82,778 85,076 11,556 13,648 Actuarial (gains) losses (213,583 ) 195,444 (42,039 ) (8,408 ) Plan participant contributions — — 2,492 2,525 Plan amendments (12,926 ) (13,227 ) (4,710 ) — Benefits paid (106,280 ) (84,291 ) (23,448 ) (23,208 ) Net curtailments and settlements 1,358 — (2,945 ) — Benefit obligation, end of period 1,984,708 2,201,021 286,574 338,488 Change in plan assets: Fair value of plan assets, beginning of period 2,162,885 1,899,889 217,537 170,092 Actual return on plan assets (185,468 ) 320,144 (13,287 ) 32,445 Company contributions — 25,000 — 15,000 Plan participant contributions — — 2,492 2,525 Benefits paid (102,799 ) (82,148 ) (16,385 ) (2,525 ) Fair value of plan assets, end of period 1,874,618 2,162,885 190,357 217,537 Funded status of the plans, December 31 $ (110,090 ) $ (38,136 ) $ (96,217 ) $ (120,951 ) Amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, December 31: Prepaid benefit costs (long-term assets) $ — $ 19,816 $ — $ — Accrued benefit liability (current liabilities) (2,314 ) (3,346 ) (1,764 ) (2,198 ) Accrued benefit liability (long-term liabilities) (107,776 ) (54,606 ) (94,453 ) (118,753 ) Net amount recognized $ (110,090 ) $ (38,136 ) $ (96,217 ) $ (120,951 ) During 2018, the actuarial gains related to the obligation for pension and SERPA benefits were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate. Conversely, during 2017, the actuarial losses related to this obligation were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate. During 2018, the actuarial gains related to the obligation for postretirement healthcare benefits were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate, favorable claim cost experience and a change in the benefit delivery structure. During 2017, the actuarial gains related to this obligation were due primarily to favorable claim cost and census experience, partially offset by the impact of a decrease in the discount rate. The funded status of the qualified pension plan and the SERPA plans are combined above. Plan level information for plans with projected benefit obligations (PBO) or accumulated benefit obligations (ABO) in excess of the fair value of plan assets at December 31 is presented below (in millions): 2018 2017 Plans with PBOs in excess of fair value of plan assets: PBO $ 1,984.7 $ 58.0 Fair value of plan assets $ 1,874.6 $ — Plans with ABOs in excess of fair value of plan assets: ABO $ 40.1 $ 42.1 Fair value of plan assets $ — $ — The total ABO for all the Company's pension and SERPA plans combined was $1.90 billion and $2.10 billion as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.

Amounts capitalized in inventory are not significant. Non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost are presented in other income (expense), net. Refer to Note 1 regarding the adoption of ASU 2017-07 for further discussion regarding the classification of net periodic benefit cost. The expected return on plan assets is calculated based on the market-related value of plan assets. The market-related value of plan assets is different from the fair value in that asset gains/losses are smoothed over a five -year period. U nrecognized gains and losses related to plan obligations and assets are initially recorded in other comprehensive income and result from actual experience that differs from assumed or expected results, and the impacts of changes in assumptions. Unrecognized plan asset gains and losses not yet reflected in the market-related value of plan assets are not subject to amortization. Remaining unrecognized gains and losses that exceed 10% of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets are amortized to earnings over the estimated future service period of active plan participants. The impacts of plan amendments, if any, are amortized over the estimated future service period of plan participants at the time of the amendment. Amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, at December 31, 2018 which have not yet been recognized in net periodic benefit cost are as follows (in thousands): Pension and SERPA Benefits Postretirement Healthcare Benefits Total Prior service credit $ (14,371 ) $ (9,381 ) $ (23,752 ) Net actuarial loss 593,608 12,005 605,613 Total $ 579,237 $ 2,624 $ 581,861 Assumptions: Weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and net periodic benefit cost at December 31 were as follows: Pension and SERPA Benefits Postretirement Healthcare Benefits 2018 2017 2016 2018 2017 2016 Assumptions for benefit obligations: Discount rate 4.38 % 3.71 % 4.30 % 4.23 % 3.52 % 4.03 % Rate of compensation increase 3.38 % 3.43 % 3.50 % n/a n/a n/a Assumptions for net periodic benefit cost: Discount rate 3.71 % 4.30 % 4.53 % 3.52 % 4.03 % 4.29 % Expected return on plan assets 7.25 % 7.25 % 7.50 % 7.25 % 7.25 % 7.50 % Rate of compensation increase 3.43 % 3.50 % 3.50 % n/a n/a n/a Plan Assets: Pension Plan Assets - The Company’s investment objective is to ensure assets are sufficient to pay benefits while mitigating the volatility of retirement plan assets or liabilities recorded in the balance sheet. The Company mitigates volatility through asset diversification and partial asset/liability matching. The investment portfolio for the Company's pension plan assets contains a diversified blend of equity and fixed-income investments. The Company’s current overall targeted asset allocation as a percentage of total market value was approximately 56% equities and 44% fixed-income and cash. Assets are rebalanced regularly to keep the actual allocation in line with targets. Equity holdings primarily include investments in small-, medium- and large-cap companies in the U.S. (including Company stock), investments in developed and emerging foreign markets and other investments such as private equity and real estate. Fixed-income holdings consist of U.S. government and agency securities, state and municipal bonds, corporate bonds from diversified industries and foreign obligations. In addition, cash equivalent balances are maintained at levels adequate to meet near-term plan expenses and benefit payments. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through quarterly investment portfolio reviews. Postretirement Healthcare Plan Assets - The Company's investment objective is to maximize the return on assets to help pay benefits by prudently investing in equities, fixed income and alternative assets. The Company's current overall targeted asset allocation as a percentage of total market value was approximately 69% equities and 31% fixed-income and cash. Equity holdings primarily include investments in small-, medium- and large-cap companies in the U.S., investments in developed and emerging foreign markets and other investments such as private equity and real estate. Fixed-income holdings consist of U.S. government and agency securities, state and municipal bonds, corporate bonds from diversified industries and foreign obligations. In addition, cash equivalent balances are maintained at levels adequate to meet near-term plan expenses and benefit payments. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through quarterly investment portfolio reviews.

The expected long-term rate of return is based on the portfolio as a whole and not on the sum of the returns on individual asset categories. The return is based on historical returns adjusted to reflect the current view of the long-term investment market. Postretirement Healthcare Cost: The weighted-average healthcare cost trend rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation of the healthcare plans was as follows: 2018 2017 Healthcare cost trend rate for next year 6.75 % 7.00 % Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (the ultimate rate) 5.00 % 5.00 % Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate 2026 2026 Future Contributions and Benefit Payments: During 2018 , the Company did not make any voluntary contributions to its qualified pension plan or postretirement healthcare plans. No pension plan contributions are required in 2019 . The Company expects that 2019 postretirement healthcare plan benefits and benefits due under the SERPA plans will be paid by the Company or, in the case of postretirement healthcare plan benefits, funded partially with plan assets. The expected benefit payments for the next five years and thereafter were as follows (in thousands): Pension Benefits SERPA Benefits Postretirement Healthcare Benefits 2019 $ 111,980 $ 2,314 $ 25,934 2020 $ 93,580 $ 2,862 $ 27,328 2021 $ 95,690 $ 3,272 $ 26,660 2022 $ 99,118 $ 3,504 $ 25,378 2023 $ 102,190 $ 4,467 $ 23,815 2024-2028 $ 568,867 $ 28,663 $ 109,562 Defined Contribution Plans: The Company has various defined contribution benefit plans that in total cover substantially all full-time employees.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to environmental, product and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter. Environmental Protection Agency Notice: In December 2009, the Company received formal, written requests for information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding: (i) certificates of conformity for motorcycle emissions and related designations and labels, (ii) aftermarket parts, and (iii) warranty claims on emissions related components. The Company promptly submitted written responses to the EPA’s inquiry and has engaged in information exchanges and discussions with the EPA. In August 2016, the Company entered into a consent decree with the EPA regarding these issues, and the consent decree was subsequently revised in July 2017 (the Settlement). In the Settlement, the Company agreed to, among other things, pay a fine, and not sell tuning products unless they are approved by the EPA or California Air Resources Board. In December 2017, the EPA filed the Settlement with the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia for the purpose of obtaining court approval of the Settlement. Three amicus briefs opposing portions of the Settlement were filed with the court by the deadline of January 31, 2018. On March 1, 2018, the Company and the EPA each filed separate response briefs. The Company is awaiting the court's decision on whether or not to finalize the Settlement. The Company has an accrual associated with this matter which is included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, and as a result, if it is finalized, the Settlement would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. The Settlement is not final until it is approved by the court, and if it is not approved by the court, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the impact of any remedies the EPA might seek beyond the Company's current reserve for this matter. York Environmental Matters: The Company is involved with government agencies and groups of potentially responsible parties related to a matter involving the cleanup of soil and groundwater contamination at its York, Pennsylvania facility. The York facility was formerly used by the U.S. Navy and AMF prior to the purchase of the York facility by the Company from AMF in 1981. The Company has been working with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) since 1986 and with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in undertaking environmental investigation and remediation activities, including a site-wide remedial investigation/feasibility study (RI/FS). In January 1995, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the Agreement) with the Navy, and the parties amended the Agreement in 2013 to address ordnance and explosive waste. The Agreement calls for the Navy and the Company to contribute amounts into a trust equal to 53% and 47% , respectively, of costs associated with environmental investigation and remediation activities at the York facility (Response Costs). The trust administers the payment of the Response Costs incurred at the York facility as covered by the Agreement. The Company has an accrual for its estimate of its share of the future Response Costs at the York facility which is included in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. While the work on the RI/FS is now complete and the final remedy was proposed in late 2018, it has not yet been approved, and given the uncertainty that exists concerning the nature and scope of additional environmental remediation that may ultimately be required under the approved final remedy, the Company is unable to make a reasonable estimate of those additional costs, if any, that may result. The estimate of the Company's future Response Costs that will be incurred at the York facility is based on reports of independent environmental consultants retained by the Company, the actual costs incurred to date, and the estimated costs to complete the necessary investigation and remediation activities. Product Liability Matters: The Company is involved in product liability suits related to the operation of its business. The Company accrues for claim exposures that are probable of occurrence and can be reasonably estimated. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes that its accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and that product liability suits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |

Share-Based Awards | Share-Based Awards The Company has a share-based compensation plan which was approved by its shareholders in April 2014 (the Plan) under which the Board of Directors may grant to employees share-based awards including restricted stock units (RSUs), performance shares, nonqualified stock options and stock appreciation rights (SARs). Performance shares include a three -year performance period with vesting based on achievement of internal performance targets. RSUs granted under the Plan vest ratably over a three -year period with the first one-third of the grant vesting one year after the date of grant. Dividends are paid on RSUs settled with stock and performance shares settled with stock. Dividend equivalents are paid on RSUs and performance shares settled with cash. The options and SARs granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant and vest ratably over a three -year period with the first one-third of the grant becoming exercisable one year after the date of grant. The options and SARs expire 10 years from the date of grant. Forfeitures for share-based awards are estimated at the grant date and adjusted when it is likely to change. At December 31, 2018 , there were 8.7 million shares of common stock available for future awards under the Plan. Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares Settled in Stock: The fair value of RSUs and performance shares settled in stock is determined based on the market price of the Company’s shares on the grant date. The following table summarizes the activity for these awards for the year ended December 31, 2018 (in thousands, except for per share amounts): Shares / Units Weighted-Average Fair Value Per Share Nonvested, beginning of period 1,601 $ 49 Granted 927 $ 47 Vested (485 ) $ 52 Forfeited (149 ) $ 49 Nonvested, end of period 1,894 $ 48 As of December 31, 2018 , there was $37.0 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs and performance shares settled in stock (net of estimated forfeitures) that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years. Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares Settled in Cash: RSUs and performance shares that are settled in cash are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a liability until vested. The fair value is determined based on the market price of the Company’s stock and is remeasured at each balance sheet date. The following table summarizes the activity for these awards for the year ended December 31, 2018 (in thousands, except for per share amounts): Units Weighted-Average Fair Value Per Share Nonvested, beginning of period 101 $ 43 Granted 71 $ 34 Vested (45 ) $ 48 Forfeited (22 ) $ 43 Nonvested, end of period 105 $ 37 Stock Options: There were no stock options granted in 2018, 2017 or 2016. All outstanding stock options were vested as of December 31, 2018. The Company’s policy is to issue new shares of common stock upon the exercise of employee stock options. The following table summarizes the stock option transactions for the year ended December 31, 2018 (in thousands, except for per share amounts): Options Weighted- Average Price Outstanding, beginning of period 1,404 $ 48 Exercised (160 ) $ 22 Forfeited (189 ) $ 59 Outstanding, end of period 1,055 $ 50 Exercisable, end of period 1,055 $ 50 The following table summarizes the aggregate intrinsic value related to options exercised, outstanding and exercisable as of and for the years ended December 31 (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 Exercised $ 3,855 $ 4,051 $ 9,595 Outstanding $ 2,366 $ 11,711 $ 22,383 Exercisable $ 2,366 $ 11,711 $ 22,383 Stock options outstanding at December 31, 2018 were as follows (options in thousands): Price Range Weighted-Average Contractual Life Options Weighted-Average Exercise Price $10.01 to $20 0.1 50 $ 12 $20.01 to $30 1.1 127 $ 24 $30.01 to $40 0.0 — $ — $40.01 to $50 2.6 219 $ 44 $50.01 to $60 3.8 171 $ 52 $60.01 to $70 5.2 488 $ 63 Options outstanding 4.0 1,055 $ 50 Options exercisable 4.0 1,055 $ 50 Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs): There were no SARs granted in 2018 , 2017 or 2016. SARs vest under the same terms and conditions as options; however, they are settled in cash equal to their settlement date fair value. As a result, SARs are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a liability until the date of exercise. The fair value of each unvested SAR award was estimated using a lattice-based valuation model. In accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation,” the fair value of each SAR award is recalculated at the end of each reporting period and the liability and expense adjusted based on the new fair value and the percent vested. All outstanding SAR awards were vested as of December 31, 2018. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of the unvested SAR awards at December 31, 2017 were as follows: 2017 Expected average term (in years) 5.7 Expected volatility 28% - 31% Expected dividend yield 2.9 % Risk-free interest rate 1.3% - 2.5% The following table summarizes the SAR transactions for the year ended December 31, 2018 (in thousands, except per share amounts): SARs Weighted-Average Price Outstanding, beginning of period 27 $ 30 Exercised (14 ) $ 24 Outstanding, end of period 13 $ 36 Exercisable, end of period 13 $ 36 |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Reportable Segments and Geographic Information | Reportable Segments and Geographic Information Reportable Segments: Harley-Davidson, Inc. is the parent company for the groups of companies doing business as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). The Company operates in two segments: the Motorcycles and Related Products (Motorcycles) segment and the Financial Services segment. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services and are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations. The Motorcycles segment consists of HDMC which designs, manufactures and sells at wholesale on-road Harley-Davidson motorcycles as well as motorcycle parts, accessories, general merchandise and related services. The Company’s products are sold to retail customers through a network of independent dealers. The Company conducts business on a global basis, with sales in the United States, Canada, Latin America, Europe/Middle East/Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific. The Financial Services segment consists of HDFS which provides wholesale and retail financing and provides insurance and insurance-related programs primarily to Harley-Davidson dealers and their retail customers. HDFS conducts business principally in the United States and Canada. Information by segment is set forth below for the years ended December 31 (in thousands): 2018 2017 2016 Motorcycles net revenue $ 4,968,646 $ 4,915,027 $ 5,271,376 Gross profit 1,616,850 1,642,697 1,845,379 Selling, administrative and engineering expense 1,101,086 1,035,921 1,074,615 Restructuring expense 93,401 — — Operating income from Motorcycles 422,363 606,776 770,764 Financial Services revenue 748,229 732,197 725,082 Financial Services expense 457,069 456,892 449,552 Operating income from Financial Services 291,160 275,305 275,530 Operating income $ 713,523 $ 882,081 $ 1,046,294 As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted ASU 2017-07 on January 1, 2018, which required the Company to record the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost in non-operating income on a prospective and retrospective basis. As a result, operating income from Motorcycles excludes these costs for all periods presented. Financial Services revenue includes $9.0 million , $6.9 million and $4.4 million of interest that HDMC paid to HDFS on wholesale finance receivables in 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The offsetting cost of these interest incentives was recorded as a reduction to Motorcycles net revenue.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation | The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harley-Davidson, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Company), including the accounts of the groups of companies doing business as Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC) and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). In addition, certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to secured financing are consolidated as the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. All of the Company’s subsidiaries are wholly owned and are included in the consolidated financial statements. Substantially all of the Company’s international subsidiaries use their respective local currency as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries have been translated at period-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses have been translated using average exchange rates for the period. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is different from an entity's functional currency are remeasured from the transactional currency to the entity's functional currency on a monthly basis. The effect of this remeasurement is reported in Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold. |
Use of Estimates | The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. |
Marketable Securities | The Company’s certificates of deposit are carried at fair value with any unrealized gains or losses reported in other comprehensive income. The mutual fund investments are held by the Company to fund certain deferred compensation obligations. The mutual fund investments are carried at fair value with gains and losses recorded in net income and are included in other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets. |
Accounts Receivable, Net | The Company’s motorcycles and related products are sold to independent dealers outside the U.S. and Canada generally on open account and the resulting receivables are included in accounts receivable in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The allowance for doubtful accounts deducted from total accounts receivable was $4.0 million and $4.1 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Accounts receivable are written down once management determines that the specific customer does not have the ability to repay the balance in full. The Company’s sales of motorcycles and related products in the U.S. and Canada are financed by the purchasing dealers through HDFS and the related receivables are included in finance receivables in the consolidated balance sheets. |
Finance Receivables, Net | Finance receivables include both retail and wholesale finance receivables, net, including amounts held by consolidated VIEs. Finance receivables are recorded in the financial statements at amortized cost net of an allowance for credit losses. The provision for credit losses on finance receivables is charged to earnings in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level that is adequate to cover estimated losses of principal inherent in the existing portfolio. Portions of the allowance for credit losses are specified to cover estimated losses on finance receivables specifically identified for impairment. The unspecified portion of the allowance covers estimated losses on finance receivables which are collectively reviewed for impairment. Finance receivables are considered impaired when management determines it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement. The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a periodic and systematic collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The Company utilizes loss forecast models which consider a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss trends, origination or vintage analysis, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of the underlying collateral, recovery rates and current economic conditions including items such as unemployment rates. Retail finance receivables are not evaluated individually for impairment prior to charge-off and therefore are not reported as impaired loans. The wholesale portfolio is primarily composed of large balance, non-homogeneous loans. The Company’s wholesale allowance evaluation is first based on a loan-by-loan review. A specific allowance for credit losses is established for wholesale finance receivables determined to be individually impaired when management concludes that the borrower will not be able to make full payment of contractual amounts due based on the original terms of the loan agreement. The impairment is determined based on the cash that the Company expects to receive discounted at the loan’s original interest rate or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral-dependent. Finance receivables in the wholesale portfolio that are not individually evaluated for impairment are segregated, based on similar risk characteristics, according to the Company’s internal risk rating system and collectively evaluated for impairment. The related allowance is based on factors such as the Company’s past loan loss experience, the specific borrower’s financial performance as well as ability to repay, current economic conditions and the value of the underlying collateral. Impaired finance receivables also include loans that have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as a concession to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Generally, it is the Company’s policy not to change the terms and conditions of finance receivables. However, to minimize the economic loss, the Company may modify certain impaired finance receivables in troubled debt restructurings. Total restructured finance receivables are not significant. Repossessed inventory representing recovered collateral on impaired finance receivables is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. In the period during which the collateral is repossessed, the related finance receivable is adjusted to the fair value of the collateral through a charge to the allowance for credit losses and reclassified to repossessed inventory. |
Asset-Backed Financing | The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities (SPE), which are considered VIEs under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing. The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE. In transactions where the Company has power over the significant activities of the VIE and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are potentially significant to the VIE, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the VIE within its consolidated financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the asset-backed financing is treated as a secured borrowing in this type of transaction and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing. In transactions where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company must determine whether it can achieve a sale for accounting purposes under ASC Topic 860, "Transfers and Servicing." To achieve a sale for accounting purposes, the assets being transferred must be legally isolated, not be constrained by restrictions from further transfer, and be deemed to be beyond the Company’s control. If the Company does not meet all these criteria for sale accounting, then the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing. If the Company meets all three of the sale criteria above, the transaction is recorded as a sale for accounting purposes and is referred to as an off-balance sheet asset-backed financing. Upon sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables are removed from the Company’s balance sheet and a gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized, and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain or loss on sale is included in Financial Services revenue in the consolidated statements of income. The Company is not required, and does not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to the on or off-balance sheet VIEs associated with these transactions. Investors and creditors in these transactions only have recourse to the assets held by the VIEs. |
Inventories | Substantially all inventories located in the United States are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Other inventories totaling $247.6 million and $234.9 million at December 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. |
Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is determined on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The following useful lives are used to depreciate the various classes of property, plant and equipment: buildings – 30 years; building, equipment and land improvements – 7 years; machinery and equipment – 3 to 10 years; furniture and fixtures – 5 years; and software – 3 to 7 years. Accelerated methods of depreciation are used for income tax purposes. |
Goodwill | Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets purchased. Goodwill is tested for impairment, based on financial data related to the reporting unit to which it has been assigned, at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The impairment test involves comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting unit associated with the goodwill to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill must be adjusted to its implied fair value. |
Long-lived Assets | The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used when events and circumstances warrant such review. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset for assets to be held and used. The Company also reviews the useful life of its long-lived assets when events and circumstances indicate that the actual useful life may be shorter than originally estimated. In the event that the actual useful life is deemed to be shorter than the original useful life, depreciation is adjusted prospectively so that the remaining book value is depreciated over the revised useful life. Refer to Note 3 Restructuring Expenses. Asset groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, and a loss is recognized for any initial adjustment required to reduce the carrying amount to the fair value less cost to sell in the period the held for sale criteria are met. The fair value less cost to sell must be assessed each reporting period that the asset group remains classified as held for sale. Gains or losses not previously recognized resulting from the sale of an asset group will be recognized on the date of sale. |
Product Warranty and Recall Campaigns | The Company currently provides a standard two -year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold worldwide, except for Japan, where the Company provides a standard three -year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold. In addition, the Company offers a one -year warranty for Parts & Accessories (P&A). The warranty coverage for the retail customer generally begins when the product is sold to a retail customer. The Company accrues for future warranty claims using an estimated cost based primarily on historical Company claim information. Additionally, the Company has from time-to-time initiated certain voluntary recall campaigns. The Company accrues for the estimated cost associated with voluntary recalls in the period that management approves and commits to the recall. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | The Company is exposed to certain risks such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. All derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value (see Note 13). In accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated as fair value hedges, along with the gain or loss on the hedged item, are recorded in current period earnings. For derivative instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of gains and losses that result from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments is initially recorded in other comprehensive income (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, at both the inception of each hedge and on an on-going basis, whether the derivatives that are used in its hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. Any ineffective portion is immediately recognized in earnings. No component of a hedging derivative instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded at fair value and any changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. |
Research and Development Expenses | Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged against income as incurred and included within selling, administrative and engineering expense in the consolidated statements of income. |
Advertising Costs | The Company expenses the production cost of advertising the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising costs relate to the Company’s efforts to promote its products and brands through the use of media. |
Shipping and Handling Costs | The Company classifies shipping and handling costs as a component of cost of goods sold. |
Share-Based Award Compensation Costs | The Company recognizes the cost of its share-based awards in its consolidated statements of income. The cost of each share-based equity award is based on the grant date fair value and the cost of each share-based cash-settled award is based on the settlement date fair value. Share-based award expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service or performance periods of the awards. The expense recognized reflects the number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest based on the service and, if applicable, performance requirements of each award. |
Income Tax Expense | The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. |
New Accounting Standards | Accounting Standards Recently Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 on January 1, 2018. The Company applied the standard to all contracts using the modified retrospective method. As such, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of the adoption as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has not been adjusted. The majority of the Company’s Motorcycles and Related Products revenue will continue to be recognized when products are shipped to customers. For a limited number of vehicle sales where revenue was previously deferred due to a guaranteed resale value, the Company will now recognize revenue when those vehicles are shipped in accordance with ASU 2014-09. The Company recorded a net increase to the opening balance of retained earnings of $6.0 million , net of income taxes, as of January 1, 2018 as a result of adopting ASU 2014-09. The Company also adjusted other assets and accrued liabilities associated with these vehicle sales in connection with its adoption of ASU 2014-09. The majority of the Financial Services segment’s revenues relate to loan and servicing activities which are outside the scope of this guidance. Financial Services revenues that fall under the scope of ASU 2014-09 continue to be recognized at the point of sale, or over the estimated life of the contract, as appropriate. The following tables illustrate the impact of adoption of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated statement of income and the consolidated balance sheet (in thousands): Consolidated Statement of Income Twelve months ended December 31, 2018 As Reported Without Adoption of ASC 606 Effect of Change Revenue: Motorcycles and Related Products $ 4,968,646 $ 4,969,948 $ (1,302 ) Costs and expenses: Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold $ 3,351,796 $ 3,348,779 $ 3,017 Operating income $ 713,523 $ 717,842 $ (4,319 ) Income before provision for income taxes $ 686,629 $ 690,948 $ (4,319 ) Provision for income taxes $ 155,178 $ 156,225 $ (1,047 ) Net income $ 531,451 $ 534,723 $ (3,272 ) Consolidated Balance Sheet December 31, 2018 As Reported Without Adoption of ASC 606 Effect of Change ASSETS Other current assets $ 144,368 $ 163,841 $ (19,473 ) Deferred income taxes $ 141,464 $ 143,312 $ (1,848 ) LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Accrued liabilities $ 601,130 $ 625,203 $ (24,073 ) Retained earnings $ 2,007,583 $ 2,004,831 $ 2,752 In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07 Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (ASU 2017-07). ASU 2017-07 amends ASC 715, Compensation - Retirement Benefits by requiring employers to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. Other components of the net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately from the line item that includes the service cost and outside of any subtotal of operating income. The guidance also limits the components that are eligible for capitalization in assets. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 retrospectively on January 1, 2018. As a result, the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost have been presented in Other income (expense), net and the prior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation. The Company elected the practical expedient allowing the use of previously disclosed benefit components as the basis for the retrospective application. Net periodic benefit credit (cost) previously recorded in Motorcycles and Related Products cost of goods sold and Selling, administrative and engineering expense of $10.6 million and $(1.4) million , respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 , and $6.2 million and $(3.6) million , respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 has been reclassified to Other income (expense), net. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (ASU 2016-18). ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As such, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis. As a result, the change in restricted cash has been excluded from financing activities and included in the change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and the prior period has been recast to reflect the new presentation. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01). ASU 2016-01 enhances the existing financial instruments reporting model by modifying fair value measurement tools, simplifying impairment assessments for certain equity instruments and modifying overall presentation and disclosure requirements. The ASU was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-03, ASU No. 2018-04 and ASU No. 2018-09. The Company adopted ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (ASU 2016-15). ASU 2016-15 addresses eight specific cash flow items with the objective of reducing diversity in practice regarding how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 on January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (ASU 2016-16). ASU 2016-16 states that an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 on January 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2016-16 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). Under existing U.S. GAAP, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances are recorded as a component of income tax expense in the period in which the law was enacted. When deferred tax balances related to items originally recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income are adjusted, certain tax effects become stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amendments in this ASU also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption in any period is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 in December 2018 resulting in the reclassification of $108.3 million in stranded tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive loss to retained earnings. These reclassified stranded tax effects relate to the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate on the gross deferred tax amounts. The Company has elected the portfolio approach to release stranded income tax effects in AOCI. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20) (ASU 2018-14). The amendments in ASU 2018-14 modify the annual disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans. The FASB modified, added, and deleted specific disclosures in an effort to improve usefulness to financial statement users and reduce unnecessary costs for companies. The amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-14 in December 2018. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02). ASU 2016-02 amends the existing lease accounting model by requiring a lessee to recognize the rights and obligations resulting from certain leases as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 also requires a company to disclose key information about their leasing arrangements. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach. Pursuant to ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, the Company plans to apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance sheet in the period of adoption. The Company has elected the practical expedients upon transition that allow entities not to reassess lease identification, classification and initial direct costs for leases that existed prior to adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the initial recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities related to the Company's leasing arrangements totaling approximately $60 million . In July 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 changes how to recognize expected credit losses on financial assets. The standard requires a more timely recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial assets and also provides additional transparency about credit risk. The current credit loss standard generally requires that a loss actually be incurred before it is recognized, while the new standard will require recognition of full lifetime expected losses upon initial recognition of the financial instrument. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2016-13 for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. An entity should apply the standard by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption. Adoption of this standard will impact how the Company recognizes credit losses on its financial instruments. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2016-13 but anticipates the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will result in an increase in the annual provision for credit losses and the related allowance for credit losses. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (ASU 2017-04). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill. Rather, the goodwill impairment is calculated by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value, and an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, limited to the total goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. All reporting units apply the same impairment test under the new standard. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2017-04 for its annual and any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12). ASU 2017-12 amends ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships and to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The ASU makes various updates to the hedge accounting model, including changing the recognition and presentation of changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument and amending disclosure requirements, among other things. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2017-12 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the ASU. For cash flow and net investment hedges existing at the date of adoption, the Company must apply a cumulative effect adjustment as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the standard is adopted. The amendments related to presentation and disclosure are required prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2017-12 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (ASU 2018-13). ASU 2018-13 amends ASC 820 to eliminate, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any period, either for the whole standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The amendments are required to be applied retrospectively, with the exception of a few disclosure additions, which are to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2018-13, but does not believe that it will have a significant impact on its disclosures. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) (ASU 2018-15). The new guidance requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract to follow the existing internal-use software guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2018-15. |
