| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). They include all adjustments that we consider necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items unless otherwise disclosed. The September 30, 2017, condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report. Due to the seasonal nature of our businesses, the results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Earnings Per Common Share. Basic earnings per share attributable to UGI Corporation shareholders reflect the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share attributable to UGI Corporation include the effects of dilutive stock options and common stock awards. Shares used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:
Derivative Instruments. Derivative instruments are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at their fair values, unless the derivative instruments qualify for the normal purchase and normal sale (“NPNS”) exception. The accounting for changes in fair value depends upon the purpose of the derivative instrument and whether it is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting. Certain of our derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. For cash flow hedges, changes in the fair values of the derivative instruments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”), to the extent effective at offsetting changes in the hedged item, until earnings are affected by the hedged item. We discontinue cash flow hedge accounting if occurrence of the forecasted transaction is determined to be no longer probable. Hedge accounting is also discontinued for derivatives that cease to be highly effective. Unrealized gains and losses on substantially all of the commodity derivative instruments used by UGI Utilities (for which NPNS has not been elected) are included in regulatory assets or liabilities because it is probable such gains or losses will be recoverable from, or refundable to, customers. From time to time, we also enter into net investment hedges. Gains and losses on net investment hedges that relate to our foreign operations are included in AOCI until such foreign net investment is sold or liquidated. Beginning October 1, 2016, in order to reduce the volatility in net income associated with our foreign operations, principally as a result of changes in the U.S. dollar exchange rate between the euro and British pound sterling, we have entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. Because these contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, realized and unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in “(Losses) gains on foreign currency contracts, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash flows from derivative instruments, other than certain cross-currency swaps and net investment hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from the interest portion of our cross-currency hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from operating activities while cash flows from the currency portion of such hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from net investment hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from investing activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For a more detailed description of the derivative instruments we use, our accounting for derivatives, our objectives for using them and other information, see Note 13. Impairment of Cost Basis Investments. We reduce the carrying values of our cost basis investments when we determine that a decline in fair value is other than temporary. In March 2017, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $7.0 associated with an other-than-temporary impairment of our investment in a private equity partnership that invests in renewable energy companies. This loss is reflected in “Other operating income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2017. Income Taxes. UGI’s consolidated effective income tax rate, defined as total income taxes as a percentage of income (loss) before income taxes, includes amounts associated with noncontrolling interests in the Partnership, which principally comprises AmeriGas Partners and AmeriGas OLP. AmeriGas Partners and AmeriGas OLP are not directly subject to federal income taxes. As a result, UGI’s consolidated effective income tax rate is affected by the amount of income (loss) before income taxes attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Partnership not subject to income taxes. See Note 5 for discussions regarding the December 22, 2017, enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “TCJA”) in the U.S. and changes in French tax laws. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and costs. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events, historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results may be different from these estimates and assumptions. Reclassifications. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation. |

| New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] | |
| Accounting Changes | Note 3 — Accounting Changes Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted Other Comprehensive Income. In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This ASU provides that the stranded tax effects in AOCI resulting from the TCJA may be reclassified to retained earnings, at the election of the entity, in the period of adoption. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (Fiscal 2020). Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance. Derivatives and Hedging. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” This ASU amends and simplifies existing guidance to allow companies to more accurately present the economic effects of risk management activities in the financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (Fiscal 2020). Early adoption is permitted. For cash flow and net investment hedges as of the adoption date, the guidance requires a modified retrospective approach. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance is required only prospectively. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance and determining the period in which the new guidance will be adopted. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Costs. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, “Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.” This ASU requires entities to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic benefit costs and present it with compensation costs for related employees in the income statement. The other components are required to be presented elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations. The amendments in this ASU permit only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable. For entities subject to rate regulation, however, the ASU recognized that in the event a regulator continues to require capitalization of all net periodic benefit costs prospectively, the difference would result in the recognition of a regulatory asset or liability. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (Fiscal 2019) with a retrospective adoption for income statement presentation and a prospective adoption for capitalization. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance. Restricted Cash. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash.” This ASU provides guidance on the classification of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in the ASU are required to be adopted on a retrospective basis. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (Fiscal 2019). Early adoption is permitted. We currently expect to adopt this ASU effective October 1, 2018. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance. Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases." This ASU amends existing guidance to require entities that lease assets to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases on the balance sheet. The new guidance also requires additional disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows from leases. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (Fiscal 2020). Early adoption is permitted. Lessees must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance and determining the period in which the new guidance will be adopted but anticipates an increase in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Revenue Recognition. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” (“ASU 2014-09”) The guidance provided under this ASU, as amended, supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance included in the ASC. ASU 2014-09 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance is effective for the Company for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (Fiscal 2019) and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of the new guidance using an integrated approach which includes evaluating differences in the amount and timing of revenue recognition from applying the requirements of the new guidance, reviewing its accounting policies and practices, and assessing the need for changes to its processes, accounting systems and design of internal controls. The Company has completed the assessment of a significant number of its contracts with customers under the new guidance to determine the effect of the adoption of the new guidance. Although the Company has not completed its assessment of the impact of the new guidance, the Company does not expect its adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company continues to monitor developments associated with certain utility industry specific guidance for possible impacts on the recognition of revenue by UGI Utilities. The Company anticipates that it will adopt the new standard using the modified retrospective transition method effective October 1, 2018. |

| Inventories | Note 4 — Inventories Inventories comprise the following:
At March 31, 2018, UGI Utilities was a party to five principal storage contract administrative agreements (“SCAAs”) which have terms of up to three years. Pursuant to SCAAs, UGI Utilities has, among other things, released certain storage and transportation contracts for the terms of the SCAAs. UGI Utilities also transferred certain associated storage inventories upon commencement of the SCAAs, will receive a transfer of storage inventories at the end of the SCAAs, and makes payments associated with refilling storage inventories during the terms of the SCAAs. The historical cost of natural gas storage inventories released under the SCAAs, which represents a portion of Gas Utility’s total natural gas storage inventories, and any exchange receivable (representing amounts of natural gas inventories used by the other parties to the agreement but not yet replenished for which UGI Utilities has the rights), are included in the caption “Gas Utility natural gas” in the table above. As of March 31, 2018, UGI Utilities had SCAAs with Energy Services, LLC, the effects of which are eliminated in consolidation, and with a non-affiliate. There were no gas storage inventories released under SCAAs with the non-affiliate at March 31, 2018 and 2017. The carrying value of gas storage inventories released under the SCAAs with the non-affiliate at September 30, 2017, comprising 2.3 billion cubic feet (“bcf”) of natural gas was $6.7. |

| Income Tax Reform | Note 5 — Income Tax Reform U.S. Tax Reform On December 22, 2017, the TCJA was enacted into law. Among the significant changes resulting from the law, the TCJA reduces the U.S. federal income tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, creates a territorial tax system with a one-time mandatory “toll tax” on previously un-repatriated foreign earnings, and allows for immediate capital expensing of certain qualified property. It also applies restrictions on the deductibility of interest expense, eliminates bonus depreciation for regulated utilities and applies a broader application of compensation limitations. In accordance with GAAP as determined by ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” we are required to record the effects of tax law changes in the period enacted. As further discussed below, our results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, contain provisional estimates of the impact of the TCJA. These amounts are considered provisional because they use estimates for which tax returns have not yet been filed and because estimated amounts may be impacted by future regulatory and accounting guidance if and when issued. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 118, we will adjust these provisional amounts as further information becomes available and as we refine our calculations. As permitted by the guidance issued by the SEC, these adjustments may occur during a reasonable “measurement period” not to exceed twelve months from the date of enactment. As a result, during the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, we reduced our net deferred income tax liabilities by $5.0 and $388.8, respectively, due to the remeasuring of our existing federal deferred income tax assets and liabilities as of the date of the enactment in December 2017, and as a result of adjusting our original provisional amounts during the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Because part of the reduction to our net deferred income taxes relates to UGI Utilities’ regulated utility plant assets as further described below, most of UGI Utilities’ reduction in deferred income taxes is not being recognized immediately in income tax expense. Discrete deferred income tax adjustments recorded during each of the three month periods ended December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, and the six months ended March 31, 2018, which reduced (increased) income tax expense consisted primarily of the following items:
In order for UGI Utilities’ regulated utility plant assets to continue to be eligible for accelerated tax depreciation, current law requires that excess deferred income taxes be amortized no more rapidly than over the remaining lives of the assets that gave rise to the excess deferred income taxes. At December 31, 2017, UGI Utilities has recorded a regulatory liability of $216.1 associated with excess deferred federal income taxes related to its regulated utility plant assets. This regulatory liability has been increased, and a federal deferred income tax asset has been recorded, in the amount of $87.8 to reflect the tax benefit generated by the amortization of the excess deferred federal income taxes. This regulatory liability is being amortized to income tax expense over the remaining lives of the assets that gave rise to the excess deferred income taxes. For further information on this regulatory liability, see Note 7. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, we included the estimated impacts of the TCJA in determining our estimated annual effective income tax rate. We are subject to a blended federal tax rate of 24.5% for Fiscal 2018 because our fiscal year contains the effective date of the rate change from 35% to 21%. As a result, the U.S. federal income tax rate included in our estimated annual effective tax rate is based on this 24.5% blended rate for Fiscal 2018. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, the effects of the tax law changes on current-period results (excluding the one-time impacts described above) decreased income tax expense, and increased net income attributable to UGI, by approximately $34.0 and $54.5, respectively. As a result of the TCJA tax law changes, in January 2018, the PUC opened a proceeding to consider whether existing rates charged by Pennsylvania utilities are no longer “just and reasonable,” as required by Pennsylvania law. On February 12, 2018, the PUC issued a Secretarial Letter requesting detailed information from large public utilities, including UGI Utilities, and inviting interested parties to submit comments on the impacts of the TCJA. On March 15, 2018, the PUC entered a temporary rates Order that converted commission-approved rates of most large Pennsylvania public utilities, including Gas Utility, into “temporary rates” for a period of six months, with a possible extension for an additional six months. It ordered each affected public utility to file a tariff supplement designating its existing rates and riders as temporary, effective March 15, 2018. In its comments on March 9, 2018, UGI Utilities expressed the view that, as a matter of law, reducing base rates by the tax impact of the TCJA would be unlawful if the result did not permit the utility to earn a reasonable rate of return and proposed to give approximately half of the benefits from the TCJA to customers through a reduction in rates and increased funding for low income and gas operations programs. The PUC is in the process of reviewing the data and comments submitted in response to the Secretarial Letter. Due to the complexity of the tax law changes and the numerous public utilities involved, the PUC has stated that it is unable to determine when it will complete its review and resolve the issues presented. Changes in French Corporate Income Tax Rates In December 2017, the French Parliament approved the Finance Bill for 2018 and the second amended Finance Bill for 2017 (collectively, the “December 2017 French Finance Bills”). One impact of the December 2017 French Finance Bills is an increase in the Fiscal 2018 corporate income tax rate in France to 39.4% from 34.4% previously. The December 2017 French Finance Bills also include measures to reduce the corporate income tax rate to 25.8% effective for fiscal years starting after January 1, 2022 (Fiscal 2023). As a result of the future corporate income tax rate reduction effective in Fiscal 2023, during the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company reduced its net French deferred income tax liabilities and recognized an estimated deferred tax benefit of $17.3. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, this estimated deferred tax benefit was adjusted downward by $3.7 to $13.6 (equal to $0.08 per basic and diluted share) for the six months ended March 31, 2018. The estimated annual effective income tax rate used in determining income taxes for the six months ended March 31, 2018, reflects the impact of the single year Fiscal 2018 income tax rate increase as a result of the December 2017 French Finance Bills. The impact of the single year rate change increased income tax expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, by approximately $1.1 and $5.0, respectively. In December 2016, the French Parliament approved the Finance Bill for 2017 and amended the Finance Bill for 2016 (collectively, the “December 2016 French Finance Bills”). The December 2016 French Finance Bills, among other things, will reduce UGI France’s corporate income tax rate from the then-current 34.4% to 28.9%, effective for fiscal years starting after January 1, 2020 (Fiscal 2021). As a result of this future income tax rate reduction, during the three months ended December 31, 2016, the Company reduced its net French deferred income tax liabilities and recognized an estimated deferred tax benefit of $27.4 (equal to $0.15 per basic and diluted share). |

| Goodwill and Intangible Assets | Note 6 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill and intangible assets comprise the following:
The changes in goodwill and intangible assets are primarily due to acquisitions and the effects of currency translation. Amortization expense of intangible assets was $13.7 and $12.4 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Amortization expense of intangible assets was $28.5 and $24.9 for the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Amortization expense included in “Cost of sales” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income was not material. The estimated aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets for the remainder of Fiscal 2018 and for the next four fiscal years is as follows: remainder of Fiscal 2018 — $28.3; Fiscal 2019 — $54.7; Fiscal 2020 — $53.3; Fiscal 2021 — $51.4; Fiscal 2022 — $49.7. During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, the Partnership performed a formal business review of the current and planned use of its indefinite-lived tradenames and trademarks, primarily associated with its January 2012 acquisition of Heritage Propane. This review included obtaining an understanding of the costs and benefits of continuing to utilize these tradenames and trademarks in the operations of the Partnership’s business. At March 31, 2018, these indefinite-lived tradenames and trademarks had a carrying amount of $82.9. In April 2018, a plan to discontinue the use of these tradenames and trademarks was presented to the Partnership’s senior management. After considering the merits of the plan, the Partnership’s senior management approved, and the General Partner’s Board of Directors endorsed, a plan to discontinue the use of these tradenames and trademarks which is expected to occur over a period of approximately four years. As a result, during the three months ending June 30, 2018, the Partnership will adjust the carrying amounts of these tradenames and trademarks to their fair values and will reclassify the remaining fair value of these tradenames and trademarks from indefinite-lived intangible assets to definite-lived intangible assets having a remaining estimated period of benefit of approximately four years. The Partnership estimates that it will record a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of approximately $70 which will decrease net income attributable to UGI by approximately $13. |

| Utility Regulatory Assets and Liabilities and Regulatory Matters | Note 7 — Utility Regulatory Assets and Liabilities and Regulatory Matters For a description of the Company’s regulatory assets and liabilities other than those described below, see Note 8 in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report. Other than removal costs, UGI Utilities currently does not recover a rate of return on its regulatory assets. The following regulatory assets and liabilities associated with UGI Utilities are included in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets:
Deferred fuel and power refunds. Gas Utility’s and Electric Utility’s tariffs contain clauses that permit recovery of all prudently incurred purchased gas and power costs through the application of purchased gas cost (“PGC”) rates in the case of Gas Utility and default service (“DS”) tariffs in the case of Electric Utility. The clauses provide for periodic adjustments to PGC and DS rates for differences between the total amount of purchased gas and electric generation supply costs collected from customers and recoverable costs incurred. Net undercollected costs are classified as a regulatory asset and net overcollections are classified as a regulatory liability. Gas Utility uses derivative instruments to reduce volatility in the cost of gas it purchases for firm- residential, commercial and industrial (“retail core-market”) customers. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on natural gas derivative instruments are included in deferred fuel costs or refunds. Net unrealized gains on such contracts at March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 were $0.3, $0.1 and $2.0, respectively. In order to reduce volatility associated with a substantial portion of its electric transmission congestion costs, Electric Utility obtains financial transmission rights (“FTRs”). FTRs are derivative instruments that entitle the holder to receive compensation for electricity transmission congestion charges when there is insufficient electricity transmission capacity on the electric transmission grid. Because Electric Utility is entitled to fully recover its DS costs, realized and unrealized gains or losses on FTRs are included in deferred fuel and power costs or deferred fuel and power refunds. Unrealized gains or losses on FTRs at March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, were not material. Excess federal deferred income taxes. This regulatory liability is the result of remeasuring UGI Utilities’ federal deferred income tax liabilities on utility plant due to the enactment of the TCJA on December 22, 2017 (see Note 5). In order for our utility assets to continue to be eligible for accelerated tax depreciation, current law requires that these excess federal deferred income taxes be amortized no more rapidly than over the remaining lives of the assets that gave rise to the excess federal deferred income taxes, ranging from 1 year to approximately 65 years. This regulatory liability has been increased to reflect the tax benefit generated by the amortization of the excess deferred federal income taxes and will be amortized and credited to tax expense. Other Regulatory Matters Base Rate Filings. On January 26, 2018, Electric Utility filed a rate request with the PUC to increase its annual base distribution revenues by $9.2. The increased revenues would fund ongoing system improvements and operations necessary to maintain safe and reliable electric service. Electric Utility requested that the new electric rates become effective March 27, 2018. The PUC entered an Order dated March 1, 2018, suspending the effective date for the rate increase to allow for investigation and public hearings. Unless a settlement is reached sooner, this review process is expected to last up to nine months from the date of filing; however, the Company cannot predict the timing or the ultimate outcome of the rate case review process. On August 31, 2017, the PUC approved a previously filed Joint Petition for Approval of Settlement of all issues providing for an $11.3 annual base distribution rate increase for PNG. The increase became effective on October 20, 2017. On October 14, 2016, the PUC approved a previously filed Joint Petition for Approval of Settlement of all issues providing for a $27.0 annual base distribution rate increase for UGI Gas. The increase became effective on October 19, 2016. Distribution System Improvement Charge. State legislation permits gas and electric utilities in Pennsylvania to recover a distribution system improvement charge (“DSIC”) on eligible capital investments as an alternative ratemaking mechanism providing for a more-timely cost recovery of qualifying capital expenditures between base rate cases. PNG and CPG received PUC approval on a DSIC tariff, initially set at zero, in 2014. PNG and CPG began charging a DSIC at a rate other than zero beginning on April 1, 2015 and April 1, 2016, respectively. In May 2017, the PUC issued a final Order to approve an increase of the maximum allowable DSIC to 7.5% of billed distribution revenues effective July 1, 2017, for PNG and CPG, pending reconsideration at each company’s Long-term Infrastructure Improvement Plan filing in 2018. PNG’s DSIC has been reset to zero as a result of its most recent rate case. The DSIC rate for PNG will resume upon exceeding the threshold amount of DSIC-eligible plant in service agreed upon in the settlement of its recent base rate case. In November 2016, UGI Gas received PUC approval to establish a DSIC tariff mechanism, capped at 5% of distribution charges billed to customers, effective January 1, 2017. UGI Gas will be permitted to recover revenue under the mechanism for the amount of DSIC-eligible plant placed into service in excess of the threshold amount of DSIC-eligible plant agreed upon in the settlement of its recent base rate case. Utilities Merger Request. On March 8, 2018 and March 13, 2018, the Company filed merger authorization requests with the PUC and MD PSC, respectively, to merge PNG and CPG into UGI Utilities, with a targeted effective date of October 1, 2018. There are no expected changes to annual base distribution rates for the combined utilities or to existing regulatory assets and liabilities as a result of the proposed merger. The Company cannot predict the timing or the ultimate outcome of the PUC or MD PSC review of the merger request. CPG, PNG, and UGI Utilities also filed, in May 2018, related applications to transfer certain FERC authorizations from PNG and CPG to UGI Utilities to ensure continuity of certain interstate gas transportation services now conducted by CPG and PNG upon the effective date of the proposed merger. |

| Energy Services Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility | Note 8 — Energy Services Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility Energy Services, LLC has an accounts receivable securitization facility (“Receivables Facility”) with an issuer of receivables-backed commercial paper currently scheduled to expire in October 2018. The Receivables Facility, as amended, provides Energy Services, LLC with the ability to borrow up to $150 of eligible receivables during the period November to April and up to $75 of eligible receivables during the period May to October. Energy Services, LLC uses the Receivables Facility to fund working capital, margin calls under commodity futures contracts, capital expenditures, dividends and for general corporate purposes. Under the Receivables Facility, Energy Services, LLC transfers, on an ongoing basis and without recourse, its trade accounts receivable to its wholly owned, special purpose subsidiary, Energy Services Funding Corporation (“ESFC”), which is consolidated for financial statement purposes. ESFC, in turn, has sold and, subject to certain conditions, may from time to time, sell an undivided interest in some or all of the receivables to a major bank. Amounts sold to the bank are reflected as “Short-term borrowings” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. ESFC was created and has been structured to isolate its assets from creditors of Energy Services, LLC and its affiliates, including UGI. Trade receivables sold to the bank remain on Energy Services, LLC’s balance sheet and Energy Services, LLC reflects a liability equal to the amount advanced by the bank. The Company records interest expense on amounts owed to the bank. Energy Services, LLC continues to service, administer and collect trade receivables on behalf of the bank, as applicable. Losses on sales of receivables to the bank during the three and six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, which are included in “Interest expense” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, were not material. Information regarding the trade receivables transferred to ESFC and the amounts sold to the bank for the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, as well as the balance of ESFC trade receivables at March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, is as follows:

| Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Debt | Note 9 — Debt AmeriGas Propane. In December 2017, AmeriGas Partners entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“AmeriGas Credit Agreement”) with a group of banks. The AmeriGas Credit Agreement amends and restates a previous credit agreement. The AmeriGas Credit Agreement provides for borrowings up to $600 (including a $150 sublimit for letters of credit) and expires in December 2022. The AmeriGas Credit Agreement permits AmeriGas to borrow at prevailing interest rates, including the base rate, defined as the higher of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or the agent bank’s prime rate, or at a one-week, one-, two-, three-, or six-month Eurodollar Rate, as defined in the AmeriGas Credit Agreement, plus a margin. Under the AmeriGas Credit Agreement, the applicable margin on base rate borrowings ranges from 0.50% to 1.75%; the applicable margin on Eurodollar Rate borrowings ranges from 1.50% to 2.75%; and the facility fee ranges from 0.30% to 0.50%. The aforementioned margins and facility fees are dependent upon AmeriGas Partners’ ratio of debt to earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (each as defined in the AmeriGas Credit Agreement). During the three and six months ended March 31, 2017, the Partnership recognized pre-tax losses of $22.1 and $55.3, respectively, in connection with the early repayments of a portion of AmeriGas Partners’ 7.00% Senior Notes. These losses are reflected in “Loss on extinguishments of debt” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2017. UGI International. In December 2017, UGI International, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of UGI, entered into a secured multicurrency revolving facility agreement (the "UGI International Credit Agreement") with a group of banks providing for borrowings up to €300. The UGI International Credit Agreement is scheduled to expire in April 2020. Under the UGI International Credit Agreement, UGI International, LLC may borrow in euros or U.S. dollars. Loans made in euros will bear interest at the associated euribor rate plus a margin ranging from 1.45% to 2.35%. Loans made in U.S. dollars will bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.70% to 2.60%. The aforementioned margins are dependent upon certain indebtedness at UGI International, LLC. The UGI International Credit Agreement requires UGI International, LLC not to exceed a ratio of total net indebtedness to EBITDA, as defined, of 3.50 to 1.00. Also in December 2017, Flaga repaid $9.2 of the outstanding principal amount of its then-existing $59.1 U.S. dollar denominated variable-rate term loan due September 2018. Concurrently, Flaga entered into an amendment to the aforementioned term loan, which amends and restates the previous agreement to provide for a principal balance of $49.9 and extends the maturity of the term loan to April 2020 (“Flaga Term Loan”). The outstanding principal bears interest at the one-month LIBOR rate plus a margin of 1.125%. Flaga has effectively fixed the LIBOR component of the interest rate, and has effectively fixed the U.S. dollar value of the interest and principal payments payable under the Flaga Term Loan, by entering into a cross-currency swap arrangement with a bank. Because a portion of the cash flows related to the Flaga Term Loan were with the same bank, such cash flows have been reflected “net” in the financing activities section of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. UGI Utilities. In October 2017, UGI Utilities entered into a $125 unsecured variable-rate term loan agreement (the “Utilities Term Loan”) with a group of banks. Proceeds from the Utilities Term Loan were used to repay revolving credit agreement borrowings and for general corporate purposes. The outstanding principal amount of the Utilities Term Loan is payable in equal quarterly installments of $1.6, which commenced March 2018, with the balance of the principal being due and payable in full on October 30, 2022. Under the Utilities Term Loan, UGI Utilities may borrow at various prevailing market interest rates, including LIBOR and the banks’ prime rate, plus a margin. The margin on such borrowings ranges from 0.0% to 1.875% and is based upon the credit ratings of certain indebtedness of UGI Utilities. The Utilities Term Loan requires that UGI Utilities not exceed a ratio of Consolidated Debt to Consolidated Total Capital, as defined. |

| Commitments and Contingencies | Note 10 — Commitments and Contingencies UGI Standby Commitment to Purchase AmeriGas Partners Class B Common Units On November 7, 2017, UGI entered into a Standby Equity Commitment Agreement (the “Commitment Agreement”) with AmeriGas Partners and AmeriGas Propane, Inc. Under the terms of the Commitment Agreement, UGI has committed to make up to $225 of capital contributions to the Partnership through July 1, 2019 (the “Commitment Period”). UGI’s capital contributions may be made from time to time during the Commitment Period upon request of the Partnership. There have been no capital contributions made to the Partnership under the Commitment Agreement. In consideration for any capital contributions made pursuant to the Commitment Agreement, the Partnership will issue to UGI or a wholly owned subsidiary new Class B Common Units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“Class B Units”). The Class B Units will be issued at a price per unit equal to the 20-day volume-weighted average price of AmeriGas Partners Common Units prior to the date of the Partnership’s related capital call. The Class B Units will be entitled to cumulative quarterly distributions at a rate equal to the annualized Common Unit yield at the time of the applicable capital call, plus 130 basis points. The Partnership may choose to make the distributions in cash or in the form of additional Class B Units. While outstanding, the Class B Units will not be subject to any incentive distributions from the Partnership. At any time after five years from the initial issuance of the Class B Units, holders may elect to convert all or any portion of the Class B Units they own into Common Units on a one-for-one basis, and at any time after six years from the initial issuance of the Class B Units, the Partnership may elect to convert all or any portion of the Class B Units into Common Units if (i) the closing trading price of the Common Units is greater than 110% of the applicable purchase price for the Class B Units and (ii) the Common Units are listed or admitted for trading on a National Securities Exchange. Upon certain events involving a change of control and immediately prior to a liquidation or winding up of the Partnership, the Class B Units will automatically convert into Common Units on a one-for-one basis. Environmental Matters UGI Utilities From the late 1800s through the mid-1900s, UGI Utilities and its current and former subsidiaries owned and operated a number of manufactured gas plants (“MGPs”) prior to the general availability of natural gas. Some constituents of coal tars and other residues of the manufactured gas process are today considered hazardous substances under the Superfund Law and may be present on the sites of former MGPs. Between 1882 and 1953, UGI Utilities owned the stock of subsidiary gas companies in Pennsylvania and elsewhere and also operated the businesses of some gas companies under agreement. By the early 1950s, UGI Utilities divested all of its utility operations other than certain Pennsylvania operations, including those which now constitute UGI Gas and Electric Utility. UGI Utilities also has two acquired subsidiaries (CPG and PNG) with similar histories of owning, and in some cases operating, MGPs in Pennsylvania. Each of UGI Utilities and its subsidiaries, CPG and PNG, has entered into a consent order and agreement (“COA”) with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (“DEP”) to address the remediation of former MGPs in Pennsylvania. In accordance with the COAs, UGI Utilities, CPG and PNG are each required to either obtain a certain number of points per calendar year based on defined eligible environmental investigatory and/or remedial activities at the MGPs or make expenditures for such activities in an amount equal to an annual environmental cost cap. The CPG COA includes an obligation to plug specified natural gas wells. The COA environmental costs caps are $2.5, $1.8, and $1.1, for UGI Utilities, CPG and PNG, respectively. The COAs for UGI Utilities, CPG and PNG are scheduled to terminate at the end of 2031, 2018, and 2019, respectively. At March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, our estimated accrued liabilities for environmental investigation and remediation costs related to the COAs for UGI Utilities, CPG and PNG totaled $51.9, $54.3 and $55.7, respectively. UGI Utilities, CPG and PNG have recorded associated regulatory assets for these costs because recovery of these costs from customers is probable (see Note 7). We do not expect the costs for investigation and remediation of hazardous substances at Pennsylvania MGP sites to be material to UGI Utilities’ results of operations because UGI Utilities, CPG and PNG receive ratemaking recovery of actual environmental investigation and remediation costs associated with the sites covered by the COAs. This ratemaking recognition reconciles the accumulated difference between historical costs and rate recoveries with an estimate of future costs associated with the sites. From time to time, UGI Utilities is notified of sites outside Pennsylvania on which private parties allege MGPs were formerly owned or operated by UGI Utilities or owned or operated by a former subsidiary. Such parties generally investigate the extent of environmental contamination or perform environmental remediation. Management believes that, under applicable law, UGI Utilities should not be liable in those instances in which a former subsidiary owned or operated an MGP. There could be, however, significant future costs of an uncertain amount associated with environmental damage caused by MGPs outside Pennsylvania that UGI Utilities directly operated, or that were owned or operated by a former subsidiary of UGI Utilities if a court were to conclude that (1) the subsidiary’s separate corporate form should be disregarded, or (2) UGI Utilities should be considered to have been an operator because of its conduct with respect to its subsidiary’s MGP. At March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, neither the undiscounted nor the accrued liability for environmental investigation and cleanup costs for UGI Utilities’ MGP sites outside of Pennsylvania was material. AmeriGas Propane AmeriGas OLP Saranac Lake. By letter dated March 6, 2008, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“DEC”) notified AmeriGas OLP that the DEC had placed property purportedly owned by AmeriGas OLP in Saranac Lake, New York on the New York State Registry of Inactive Hazardous Waste Disposal Sites. A site characterization study performed by the DEC disclosed contamination related to a former MGP. At that time, AmeriGas OLP reviewed the study and researched the history of the site, including the extent of AmeriGas OLP’s ownership. In its written response to the DEC in early 2009, AmeriGas OLP disputed DEC’s contention it was a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) as it did not operate the MGP and appeared to only own a portion of the site. The DEC did not respond to the 2009 communication. In March 2017, the DEC communicated to AmeriGas OLP that the DEC had previously issued three Records of Decision (“RODs”) related to the site and requested additional information regarding AmeriGas OLP’s purported ownership. The selected remedies identified in the RODs total approximately $27.7. Based on public reports, the DEC has commenced implementation of the remediation plan. AmeriGas OLP responded to the DEC’s March 2017 request for ownership information, renewing its challenge to designation as a PRP and identifying potential defenses. In October 2017, the DEC identified a third party PRP with respect to the site. Based on our evaluation of the available information, during the third quarter of Fiscal 2017, the Partnership accrued an environmental remediation liability of $7.5 related to the site. Our share of the actual remediation costs could be significantly more or less than the accrued amount. Other Matters Purported Class Action Lawsuits. Between May and October of 2014, more than 35 purported class action lawsuits were filed in multiple jurisdictions against the Partnership/UGI and a competitor by certain of their direct and indirect customers. The class action lawsuits allege, among other things, that the Partnership and its competitor colluded, beginning in 2008, to reduce the fill level of portable propane cylinders from 17 pounds to 15 pounds and combined to persuade their common customer, Walmart Stores, Inc., to accept that fill reduction, resulting in increased cylinder costs to retailers and end-user customers in violation of federal and certain state antitrust laws. The claims seek treble damages, injunctive relief, attorneys’ fees and costs on behalf of the putative classes. On October 16, 2014, the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred all of these purported class action cases to the Western Division of the United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri (“District Court”). In July 2015, the District Court dismissed all claims brought by direct customers. In June 2017, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit (“Eighth Circuit”) ruled en banc to reverse the dismissal by the District Court, which had previously been affirmed by a panel of the Eighth Circuit. In September 2017, we filed a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari to the U.S. Supreme Court appealing the decision of the Eighth Circuit. The petition was denied in January 2018 and, as a result, the case was transferred back to the District Court for further proceedings. In July 2015, the District Court also dismissed all claims brought by the indirect customers other than those for injunctive relief. The indirect customers filed an amended complaint with the District Court claiming injunctive relief and state law claims under Wisconsin, Maine and Vermont law. In September 2016, the District Court dismissed the amended complaint in its entirety. The indirect customers appealed this decision to the Eighth Circuit. On July 21, 2016, several new indirect customer plaintiffs filed an antitrust class action lawsuit against the Partnership in the Western District of Missouri. The new indirect customer class action lawsuit was dismissed in September 2016 and certain indirect customer plaintiffs appealed the decision, consolidating their appeal with the indirect customer appeal still pending in the Eighth Circuit. The parties submitted briefs in October 2017 to the Eighth Circuit and held oral argument in February 2018. The parties are now awaiting the court’s ruling. We are unable to reasonably estimate the impact, if any, arising from such litigation. We believe we have strong defenses to the claims and intend to vigorously defend against them. In addition to the matters described above, there are other pending claims and legal actions arising in the normal course of our businesses. Although we cannot predict the final results of these pending claims and legal actions, we believe, after consultation with counsel, that the final outcome of these matters will not have a material effect on our financial statements. |

| Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans | Note 11 — Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans In the U.S., we sponsor a defined benefit pension plan for employees hired prior to January 1, 2009, of UGI, UGI Utilities, PNG, CPG and certain of UGI’s other domestic wholly owned subsidiaries (“U.S. Pension Plan”). We also provide postretirement health care benefits to certain retirees and postretirement life insurance benefits to nearly all U.S. active and retired employees. In addition, employees of UGI France SAS and its subsidiaries are covered by certain defined benefit pension and postretirement plans. Net periodic pension expense and other postretirement benefit costs include the following components:
The U.S. Pension Plan’s assets are held in trust and consist principally of publicly traded, diversified equity and fixed income mutual funds and, to a much lesser extent, UGI Common Stock. It is our general policy to fund amounts for U.S. Pension Plan benefits equal to at least the minimum required contribution set forth in applicable employee benefit laws. During the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company made cash contributions to the U.S. Pension Plan of $6.7 and $5.7, respectively. The Company expects to make additional discretionary cash contributions of approximately $6.7 to the U.S. Pension Plan during the remainder of Fiscal 2018. UGI Utilities has established a Voluntary Employees’ Beneficiary Association (“VEBA”) trust to pay retiree health care and life insurance benefits by depositing into the VEBA the annual amount of postretirement benefits costs, if any. The difference between such cash deposits or expense recorded and amounts included in UGI Gas’ and Electric Utility’s rates, if any, is deferred for future recovery from, or refund to, ratepayers. There were no required contributions to the VEBA during the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. We also sponsor unfunded and non-qualified supplemental executive defined benefit retirement plans. Net periodic costs associated with these plans for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, were not material. |

| Fair Value Measurements | Note 12 — Fair Value Measurements Recurring Fair Value Measurements The following table presents on a gross basis our financial assets and liabilities, including both current and noncurrent portions, that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis within the fair value hierarchy, as of March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017:
The fair values of our Level 1 exchange-traded commodity futures and option contracts and non-exchange-traded commodity futures and forward contracts are based upon actively quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities. The remainder of our derivative instruments are designated as Level 2. The fair values of certain non-exchange-traded commodity derivatives designated as Level 2 are based upon indicative price quotations available through brokers, industry price publications or recent market transactions and related market indicators. For commodity option contracts designated as Level 2 that are not traded on an exchange, we use a Black Scholes option pricing model that considers time value and volatility of the underlying commodity. The fair values of our Level 2 interest rate contracts, foreign currency contracts and cross-currency contracts are based upon third-party quotes or indicative values based on recent market transactions. The fair values of investments held in grantor trusts are derived from quoted market prices as substantially all of the investments in these trusts have active markets. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the periods presented. Other Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of other financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (except for current maturities of long-term debt) approximate their fair values because of their short-term nature. We estimate the fair value of long-term debt by using current market rates and by discounting future cash flows using rates available for similar type debt (Level 2). The carrying amount and estimated fair value of our long-term debt (including current maturities but excluding unamortized debt issuance costs) at March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 were as follows:
Financial instruments other than derivative instruments, such as short-term investments and trade accounts receivable, could expose us to concentrations of credit risk. We limit credit risk from short-term investments by investing only in investment-grade commercial paper, money market mutual funds, securities guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies and FDIC insured bank deposits. The credit risk arising from concentrations of trade accounts receivable is limited because we have a large customer base that extends across many different U.S. markets and a number of foreign countries. For information regarding concentrations of credit risk associated with our derivative instruments, see Note 13. Our investment in a private equity partnership is measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Generally this measurement uses Level 3 fair value inputs because the investment does not have a readily available market value. See Note 2 for additional information on this cost method investment. |

| Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Note 13 — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities We are exposed to certain market risks related to our ongoing business operations. Management uses derivative financial and commodity instruments, among other things, to manage these risks. The primary risks managed by derivative instruments are (1) commodity price risk; (2) interest rate risk; and (3) foreign currency exchange rate risk. Although we use derivative financial and commodity instruments to reduce market risk associated with forecasted transactions, we do not use derivative financial and commodity instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The use of derivative instruments is controlled by our risk management and credit policies, which govern, among other things, the derivative instruments we can use, counterparty credit limits and contract authorization limits. Although our commodity derivative instruments extend over a number of years, a significant portion of our commodity derivative instruments economically hedge commodity price risk during the next twelve months. Commodity Price Risk Regulated Utility Operations Natural Gas Gas Utility’s tariffs contain clauses that permit recovery of all of the prudently incurred costs of natural gas it sells to retail core-market customers, including the cost of financial instruments used to hedge PGC. As permitted and agreed to by the PUC pursuant to Gas Utility’s annual PGC filings, Gas Utility currently uses New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”) natural gas futures and option contracts to reduce commodity price volatility associated with a portion of the natural gas it purchases for its retail core-market customers. Gains and losses on Gas Utility’s natural gas futures contracts and natural gas option contracts are recorded in regulatory assets or liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets because it is probable such gains or losses will be recoverable from, or refundable to, customers through the PGC recovery mechanism (see Note 7). Electricity Electric Utility’s DS tariffs permit the recovery of all prudently incurred costs of electricity it sells to DS customers, including the cost of financial instruments used to hedge electricity costs. Electric Utility enters into forward electricity purchase contracts to meet a substantial portion of its electricity supply needs. At March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, all Electric Utility forward electricity purchase contracts were subject to the NPNS exception. In order to reduce volatility associated with a substantial portion of its electricity transmission congestion costs, Electric Utility obtains FTRs through an annual allocation process. Gains and losses on Electric Utility FTRs are recorded in regulatory assets or liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets because it is probable such gains or losses will be recoverable from, or refundable to, customers through the DS mechanism (see Note 7). Non-utility Operations LPG In order to manage market price risk associated with the Partnership’s fixed-price programs, the Partnership uses over-the-counter derivative commodity instruments, principally price swap contracts. In addition, AmeriGas Partners, certain other domestic businesses and our UGI International operations also use over-the-counter price swap and option contracts to reduce commodity price volatility associated with a portion of their forecasted LPG purchases. The Partnership, from time to time, enters into price swap and put option agreements to reduce the effects of short-term commodity price volatility. Also, Midstream & Marketing, from time to time, uses NYMEX futures contracts to economically hedge the gross margin associated with the purchase and anticipated later near-term sale of propane. Natural Gas In order to manage market price risk relating to fixed-price sales contracts for natural gas, Midstream & Marketing enters into NYMEX and over-the-counter natural gas futures and forward contracts and Intercontinental Exchange (“ICE”) natural gas basis swap contracts. In addition, Midstream & Marketing uses NYMEX futures contracts to economically hedge the gross margin associated with the purchase and anticipated later near-term sale of natural gas. UGI International also uses natural gas futures and forward contracts to economically hedge market price risk associated with fixed-price sales contracts with its customers. Electricity In order to manage market price risk relating to fixed-price sales contracts for electricity, Midstream & Marketing enters into electricity futures and forward contracts. Midstream & Marketing also uses NYMEX and over-the-counter electricity futures contracts to economically hedge the price of a portion of its anticipated future sales of electricity from its electric generation facilities. From time to time, Midstream & Marketing purchases FTRs to economically hedge electricity transmission congestion costs associated with its fixed-price electricity sales contracts and from time to time also enters into New York Independent System Operator (“NYISO”) capacity swap contracts to economically hedge the locational basis differences for customers it serves on the NYISO electricity grid. UGI International also uses electricity futures and forward contracts to economically hedge market price risk associated with fixed-price sales and purchase contracts for electricity. Interest Rate Risk UGI France SAS’ and Flaga’s long-term debt agreements have interest rates that are generally indexed to short-term market interest rates. UGI France SAS and Flaga have each entered into pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap agreements to hedge the underlying euribor rates and LIBOR rates of interest on their variable-rate term loans. Our domestic businesses’ long-term debt is typically issued at fixed rates of interest. As these long-term debt issues mature, we typically refinance such debt with new debt having interest rates reflecting then-current market conditions. In order to reduce market rate risk on the underlying benchmark rate of interest associated with near- to medium-term forecasted issuances of fixed-rate debt, from time to time we enter into interest rate protection agreements (“IRPAs”). We account for interest rate swaps and IRPAs as cash flow hedges. At March 31, 2018, the amount of net losses associated with interest rate hedges (excluding pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps) expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months is $3.5. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts In order to reduce exposure to foreign exchange rate volatility related to our foreign LPG operations, through September 30, 2016, we entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge a portion of anticipated U.S. dollar-denominated LPG product purchases primarily during the heating-season months of October through March. We account for these foreign currency exchange contracts associated with anticipated purchases of U.S. dollar-denominated LPG as cash flow hedges. At March 31, 2018, the amount of net losses associated with currency rate risk expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months based upon current fair values is $3.7. Beginning October 1, 2016, in order to reduce the volatility in net income associated with our foreign operations, principally as a result of changes in the U.S. dollar exchange rate between the euro and British pound sterling, we have entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The fair value of these forward foreign currency contracts are recorded as assets or liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of these foreign currency exchange contracts are recorded in “Losses on foreign currency contracts, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. From time to time we also enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the volatility of the U.S. dollar value of a portion of our UGI International euro-denominated net investments. We account for these foreign currency exchange contracts as net investment hedges. At March 31, 2018 and 2017, there were no unsettled net investment hedges outstanding. Cross-currency Swaps From time to time, Flaga enters into cross-currency swaps to hedge its exposure to the variability in expected future cash flows associated with the foreign currency and interest rate risk of U.S. dollar-denominated debt. These cross-currency hedges include initial and final exchanges of principal from a fixed euro denomination to a fixed U.S. dollar-denominated amount, to be exchanged at a specified rate, which was determined by the market spot rate on the date of issuance. These cross-currency swaps also include interest rate swaps of a floating U.S. dollar-denominated interest rate to a fixed euro-denominated interest rate. We designate these cross-currency swaps as cash flow hedges. At March 31, 2018, the amount of net losses associated with such cross-currency swaps expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months is not material. Quantitative Disclosures Related to Derivative Instruments The following table summarizes, by derivative type, the gross notional amounts related to open derivative contracts as of March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, and the final settlement date of the Company's open derivative transactions as of March 31, 2018, excluding those derivatives that qualified for the NPNS exception:
Derivative Instrument Credit Risk We are exposed to risk of loss in the event of nonperformance by our derivative instrument counterparties. Our derivative instrument counterparties principally comprise large energy companies and major U.S. and international financial institutions. We maintain credit policies with regard to our counterparties that we believe reduce overall credit risk. These policies include evaluating and monitoring our counterparties’ financial condition, including their credit ratings, and entering into agreements with counterparties that govern credit limits or entering into netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain financial transactions, as deemed appropriate. Certain of these agreements call for the posting of collateral by the counterparty or by the Company in the forms of letters of credit, parental guarantees or cash. Additionally, our commodity exchange-traded futures contracts generally require cash deposits in margin accounts. At March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, restricted cash in brokerage accounts totaled $10.6, $10.3 and $0.3, respectively. Although we have concentrations of credit risk associated with derivative instruments, the maximum amount of loss we would incur if these counterparties failed to perform according to the terms of their contracts, based upon the gross fair values of the derivative instruments, was not material at March 31, 2018. Certain of the Partnership’s derivative contracts have credit-risk-related contingent features that may require the posting of additional collateral in the event of a downgrade of the Partnership’s debt rating. At March 31, 2018, if the credit-risk-related contingent features were triggered, the amount of collateral required to be posted would not be material. Offsetting Derivative Assets and Liabilities Derivative assets and liabilities are presented net by counterparty on the condensed consolidated balance sheets if the right of offset exists. We offset amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral or the obligation to return cash collateral against amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty. Our derivative instruments include both those that are executed on an exchange through brokers and centrally cleared and over-the-counter transactions. Exchange contracts utilize a financial intermediary, exchange or clearinghouse to enter, execute or clear the transactions. Over-the-counter contracts are bilateral contracts that are transacted directly with a third party. Certain over-the-counter and exchange contracts contain contractual rights of offset through master netting arrangements, derivative clearing agreements and contract default provisions. In addition, the contracts are subject to conditional rights of offset through counterparty nonperformance, insolvency or other conditions. In general, most of our over-the-counter transactions and all exchange contracts are subject to collateral requirements. Types of collateral generally include cash or letters of credit. Cash collateral paid by us to our over-the-counter derivative counterparties, if any, is reflected in the table below to offset derivative liabilities. Cash collateral received by us from our over-the-counter derivative counterparties, if any, is reflected in the table below to offset derivative assets. Certain other accounts receivable and accounts payable balances recognized on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with our derivative counterparties are not included in the table below but could reduce our net exposure to such counterparties because such balances are subject to master netting or similar arrangements. Fair Value of Derivative Instruments The following table presents the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities by type, as well as the effects of offsetting, as of March 31, 2018, September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017:
Effect of Derivative Instruments The following tables provide information on the effects of derivative instruments on the condensed consolidated statements of income and changes in AOCI for the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the amounts of derivative gains or losses representing ineffectiveness and the amounts of gains or losses recognized in income as a result of excluding derivatives from ineffectiveness testing were not material. We are also a party to a number of other contracts that have elements of a derivative instrument. These contracts include, among others, binding purchase orders, contracts that provide for the purchase and delivery, or sale, of energy products, and service contracts that require the counterparty to provide commodity storage, transportation or capacity service to meet our normal sales commitments. Although certain of these contracts have the requisite elements of a derivative instrument, these contracts qualify for NPNS exception accounting because they provide for the delivery of products or services in quantities that are expected to be used in the normal course of operating our business and the price in the contract is based on an underlying that is directly associated with the price of the product or service being purchased or sold. |

| Segment Information | Note 15 — Segment Information Our operations comprise four reportable segments generally based upon products or services sold, geographic location and regulatory environment: (1) AmeriGas Propane; (2) UGI International; (3) Midstream & Marketing; and (4) UGI Utilities. Corporate & Other principally comprise (1) net expenses of UGI’s captive general liability insurance company and UGI’s corporate headquarters facility, and UGI’s unallocated corporate and general expenses and interest income. In addition, Corporate & Other includes net gains and losses on commodity and certain foreign currency derivative instruments not associated with current-period transactions (including such amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests) because such items are excluded from profit measures evaluated by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in assessing our reportable segments’ performance or allocating resources. Corporate & Other assets principally comprise cash and cash equivalents of UGI and its captive insurance company, and UGI corporate headquarters’ assets. The accounting policies of our reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report. We evaluate AmeriGas Propane’s performance principally based upon the Partnership’s earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization as adjusted for the effects of gains and losses on commodity derivative instruments not associated with current-period transactions and other gains and losses that competitors do not necessarily have (“Partnership Adjusted EBITDA”). Although we use Partnership Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate AmeriGas Propane’s profitability, it should not be considered as an alternative to net income (as an indicator of operating performance) or as an alternative to cash flow (as a measure of liquidity or ability to service debt obligations) and is not a measure of performance or financial condition under GAAP. Our definition of Partnership Adjusted EBITDA may be different from that used by other companies. Our CODM evaluates the performance of our other reportable segments principally based upon their income before income taxes excluding gains and losses on commodity and certain foreign currency derivative instruments not associated with current-period transactions, as previously mentioned.
(a)The following table provides a reconciliation of Partnership Adjusted EBITDA to AmeriGas Propane income before income taxes:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) |
6 Months Ended |
|---|---|
Mar. 31, 2018 | |
| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Earnings Per Common Share | Earnings Per Common Share. Basic earnings per share attributable to UGI Corporation shareholders reflect the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share attributable to UGI Corporation include the effects of dilutive stock options and common stock awards. |
| Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments. Derivative instruments are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at their fair values, unless the derivative instruments qualify for the normal purchase and normal sale (“NPNS”) exception. The accounting for changes in fair value depends upon the purpose of the derivative instrument and whether it is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting. Certain of our derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. For cash flow hedges, changes in the fair values of the derivative instruments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”), to the extent effective at offsetting changes in the hedged item, until earnings are affected by the hedged item. We discontinue cash flow hedge accounting if occurrence of the forecasted transaction is determined to be no longer probable. Hedge accounting is also discontinued for derivatives that cease to be highly effective. Unrealized gains and losses on substantially all of the commodity derivative instruments used by UGI Utilities (for which NPNS has not been elected) are included in regulatory assets or liabilities because it is probable such gains or losses will be recoverable from, or refundable to, customers. From time to time, we also enter into net investment hedges. Gains and losses on net investment hedges that relate to our foreign operations are included in AOCI until such foreign net investment is sold or liquidated. Beginning October 1, 2016, in order to reduce the volatility in net income associated with our foreign operations, principally as a result of changes in the U.S. dollar exchange rate between the euro and British pound sterling, we have entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. Because these contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, realized and unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in “(Losses) gains on foreign currency contracts, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash flows from derivative instruments, other than certain cross-currency swaps and net investment hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from the interest portion of our cross-currency hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from operating activities while cash flows from the currency portion of such hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from net investment hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from investing activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. |
| Impairment of Cost Basis Investments | Impairment of Cost Basis Investments. We reduce the carrying values of our cost basis investments when we determine that a decline in fair value is other than temporary. In March 2017, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $7.0 associated with an other-than-temporary impairment of our investment in a private equity partnership that invests in renewable energy companies. This loss is reflected in “Other operating income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2017. |
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes. UGI’s consolidated effective income tax rate, defined as total income taxes as a percentage of income (loss) before income taxes, includes amounts associated with noncontrolling interests in the Partnership, which principally comprises AmeriGas Partners and AmeriGas OLP. AmeriGas Partners and AmeriGas OLP are not directly subject to federal income taxes. As a result, UGI’s consolidated effective income tax rate is affected by the amount of income (loss) before income taxes attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Partnership not subject to income taxes. |
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and costs. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events, historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results may be different from these estimates and assumptions. |
| Reclassifications | Reclassifications. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation. |
| Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted | Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted Other Comprehensive Income. In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This ASU provides that the stranded tax effects in AOCI resulting from the TCJA may be reclassified to retained earnings, at the election of the entity, in the period of adoption. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (Fiscal 2020). Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance. Derivatives and Hedging. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, “Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” This ASU amends and simplifies existing guidance to allow companies to more accurately present the economic effects of risk management activities in the financial statements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (Fiscal 2020). Early adoption is permitted. For cash flow and net investment hedges as of the adoption date, the guidance requires a modified retrospective approach. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance is required only prospectively. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance and determining the period in which the new guidance will be adopted. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Costs. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, “Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.” This ASU requires entities to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic benefit costs and present it with compensation costs for related employees in the income statement. The other components are required to be presented elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations. The amendments in this ASU permit only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable. For entities subject to rate regulation, however, the ASU recognized that in the event a regulator continues to require capitalization of all net periodic benefit costs prospectively, the difference would result in the recognition of a regulatory asset or liability. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (Fiscal 2019) with a retrospective adoption for income statement presentation and a prospective adoption for capitalization. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance. Restricted Cash. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash.” This ASU provides guidance on the classification of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in the ASU are required to be adopted on a retrospective basis. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (Fiscal 2019). Early adoption is permitted. We currently expect to adopt this ASU effective October 1, 2018. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance. Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases." This ASU amends existing guidance to require entities that lease assets to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases on the balance sheet. The new guidance also requires additional disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows from leases. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 (Fiscal 2020). Early adoption is permitted. Lessees must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its financial statements from the adoption of the new guidance and determining the period in which the new guidance will be adopted but anticipates an increase in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Revenue Recognition. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” (“ASU 2014-09”) The guidance provided under this ASU, as amended, supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance included in the ASC. ASU 2014-09 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance is effective for the Company for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (Fiscal 2019) and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of the new guidance using an integrated approach which includes evaluating differences in the amount and timing of revenue recognition from applying the requirements of the new guidance, reviewing its accounting policies and practices, and assessing the need for changes to its processes, accounting systems and design of internal controls. The Company has completed the assessment of a significant number of its contracts with customers under the new guidance to determine the effect of the adoption of the new guidance. Although the Company has not completed its assessment of the impact of the new guidance, the Company does not expect its adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company continues to monitor developments associated with certain utility industry specific guidance for possible impacts on the recognition of revenue by UGI Utilities. The Company anticipates that it will adopt the new standard using the modified retrospective transition method effective October 1, 2018. |
