Leases [Abstract]  
Leases Leases
We primarily lease certain manufacturing plants, offices, warehouses, training and service centers at various locations worldwide that are classified as either operating or finance leases. Our leases have remaining lease terms up to 24 years, which include options to extend the lease term for periods up to 20 years when it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised.
Operating lease expense totaled $19 million and $18 million in the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $55 million and $52 million in the first nine months of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Cash paid for operating leases approximated the lease expense and is classified in cash flows from operating activities. Noncash transactions related to operating leases totaled $36 million and $32 million in the first nine months of 2024 and 2023, respectively, reflecting new or extended leases. In the first nine months of 2024, non-cash transactions included the recognition of a $72 million asset and liability related to a new finance lease that matures in 2028. Finance lease, variable and short-term lease costs were not significant.
