Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Business Segments

(14) Business Segments

The Company measures segment profit as operating income for petroleum and nitrogen fertilizer, CVR’s two reporting segments, based on the definitions provided in ASC Topic 280 – Segment Reporting. All operations of the segments are located within the United States.

Petroleum

Principal products of the petroleum segment are refined fuels, propane, and petroleum refining by-products, including pet coke. The petroleum segment’s Coffeyville refinery sells pet coke to the Nitrogen Fertilizer Partnership for use in the manufacture of nitrogen fertilizer at the adjacent nitrogen fertilizer plant. For the petroleum segment, a per-ton transfer price is used to record intercompany sales on the part of the petroleum segment and corresponding intercompany cost of product sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) for the nitrogen fertilizer segment. The per ton transfer price paid, pursuant to the pet coke supply agreement that became effective October 24, 2007, is based on the lesser of a pet coke price derived from the price received by the nitrogen fertilizer segment for UAN (subject to a UAN based price ceiling and floor) and a pet coke price index for pet coke. The intercompany transactions are eliminated in the other segment. Intercompany sales included in petroleum net sales were approximately $2.3 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Intercompany net sales included in petroleum net sales were approximately $4.6 million and $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The petroleum segment recorded intercompany cost of product sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) for the hydrogen purchases described below under “Nitrogen Fertilizer” of approximately $0.9 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the petroleum segment recorded intercompany cost of product sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) of approximately $6.8 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The petroleum segment recorded intercompany revenue for hydrogen sales of approximately $0 and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the petroleum segment recorded intercompany revenue for hydrogen sales of approximately $0 and $0.3 million, respectively.

Nitrogen Fertilizer

The principal product of the nitrogen fertilizer segment is nitrogen fertilizer. Intercompany cost of product sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) for the pet coke transfer described above was approximately $2.2 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Intercompany cost of product sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) for the pet coke transfer described above was approximately $4.5 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Pursuant to the feedstock agreement, the Company’s segments have the right to transfer hydrogen between the Coffeyville refinery and nitrogen fertilizer plant. Sales of hydrogen to the petroleum segment have been reflected as net sales for the nitrogen fertilizer segment. Receipts of hydrogen from the petroleum segment have been reflected in cost of product sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) for the nitrogen fertilizer segment. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the net sales generated from intercompany hydrogen sales were $0.9 million and $4.0 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the net sales generated from intercompany hydrogen sales were $6.8 million and $4.0 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the nitrogen fertilizer segment also recognized approximately $0 and $0.1 million, respectively, of cost of product sold related to the transfer of excess hydrogen. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the nitrogen fertilizer segment also recognized approximately $0 and $0.3 million, respectively, of cost of product sold related to the transfer of excess hydrogen. As these intercompany sales and cost of product sold are eliminated, there is no financial statement impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other Segment

The other segment reflects intercompany eliminations, corporate cash and cash equivalents, income tax activities and other corporate activities that are not allocated to the operating segments.
