Leases [Abstract]  
LEASES pany enters into operating leases for offices, operational facilities, retail locations, vehicles and other assets to facilitate its operations that expire at various dates through 2027. Leases for real estate typically have initial terms ranging from 3 to 15 years, generally with renewal options. Leases for equipment typically have initial terms ranging from 3 to 7 years. Most leases have fixed rentals, with many of the real estate leases requiring additional payments for real estate taxes and occupancy-related costs. These lease terms may include optional renewals, terminations or purchases, which are considered in the Company’s assessments when such options are reasonably certain to be exercised.

For retail real estate leases, the Company does not typically include renewal options in the underlying lease term. For non-retail real estate leases, when renewal options are reasonably certain to be exercised, the Company includes the renewal options in the underlying lease term, up to a maximum of ten years. Renewals for all other leases are determined on a lease-by-lease basis.

Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the new lease standard, which allows the Company to not reassess whether a contract contains a lease, how the lease is classified, and if initial direct costs can be capitalized. The Company elected to combine non-lease components with the related lease components for real estate, vehicles and other significant asset arrangements. The Company treats the combined items as a single lease component for accounting purposes. Lastly, the Company elected not to recognize a right-of-use asset and related lease liability for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less for all classes of underlying assets.






Certain of the Company’s leases contain fixed, indexed, or market-based escalation clauses which impact future payments. Certain arrangements contain variable payment provisions, such as payments based on sales volumes or amounts and mileage, or excess mileage. The Company’s leases typically contain customary covenants and restrictions.

The Company determines whether a contract is a lease at inception. This typically requires more judgment in storage and service arrangements where the Company must determine whether its rights to specific physical or production capacity may represent substantially all of the available capacity.

The Company measures right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities based on the present value of remaining lease payments, including in-substance fixed payments, the current payment amount when payments depend on an index or rate (e.g., inflation adjustments, market renewals), and the amount the Company believes is probable to be paid to the lessor under residual value guarantees, when applicable. Lease contracts may include fixed payments for non-lease components, such as maintenance, which are included in the measurement of lease liabilities for certain asset classes based on the Company’s election to combine lease and non-lease components.

As applicable borrowing rates are not typically implied within our lease arrangements, the Company discounts lease payments based on its estimated incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement, or modification, which is based on the Company’s estimated credit rating, the lease term at commencement and the contract currency of the lease arrangement.
