Loss Contingency [Abstract]
Contingencies	Contingencies Brazilian Tax Assessments Tax on Manufactured Products – minimum pricing rules In December 2012, October 2017 and June 2022, our Brazilian subsidiary, Avon Industrial LTDA (Avon Brazil Manufacturing) received excise tax ("IPI") assessments for the years 2008, 2014 and 2018. As in prior IPI cases that have been resolved in Avon’s favor, the assessments assert that the establishment in 1995 of separate manufacturing and distribution companies in Brazil was done without a valid business purpose, and that Avon Brazil Manufacturing did not observe minimum pricing rules to define the taxable basis of the tax on manufactured products. The structure adopted in 1995 is comparable to that used by many other companies in Brazil. We believe that our Brazilian corporate structure is appropriate, both operationally and legally, and that the assessments are unfounded. These matters are being contested at the administrative level, where proceedings are currently in progress. As of December 31, 2022, the total disputed amount classified as a remote risk of loss was $483. As of December 31, 2021, the total disputed amount of $360 was classified as a reasonably possible risk of loss. The change in classification was a result of enactment of new legislation in Brazil in July 2022 which defined the legal term 'Place of Business', this enactment was in alignment with Avon's argument and resulted as a favorable assessment, whilst the change in the total amount was largely due to the new assessment received in June 2022 and movements in foreign exchange rates. Tax on Manufactured Products – Decree equated certain commercial companies (not subject to IPI taxation) to industrial companies (IPI taxpayers) In May 2015, an executive decree established the levy of IPI on the sales of cosmetic products by Avon Brazil. Avon Brazil filed an objection to this levy on the basis that it is not constitutional since this tax is already paid by Avon Brazil Manufacturing. In December 2016, Avon Brazil received a favorable decision from the Federal District Court regarding this objection. This decision has been appealed by the Brazilian federal tax authority. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the total amount under discussion classified as a reasonably possible risk of loss was $301 and $243, respectively, with the increase being largely a result of higher interest and taxes due, and movements in foreign exchange rates. Brazilian Financial Indemnities As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company has issued a number of guarantees totaling $181 and $157, respectively, which it could be required to make in the event of adverse judgments in a number of lawsuits in Brazil. Talc-Related Litigation The Company has been named a defendant in numerous personal injury lawsuits filed in U.S. courts, alleging that certain talc products the Company sold in the past were contaminated with asbestos. Many of these actions involve a number of co-defendants from a variety of different industries, including manufacturers of cosmetics and manufacturers of other products that, unlike the Company’s products, were designed to contain asbestos. As of December 31, 2022, there were 227 individual active cases pending against the Company, for which associated costs and estimated liabilities have been included in current liabilities of discontinued operations on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, 39 new cases were filed and 23 cases were dismissed, settled or otherwise resolved. During the year ended December 31, 2022, 128 new cases were filed and 52 cases were dismissed, settled or otherwise resolved. In December 2022, one case, captioned Chapman, et al. v. Avon Products, Inc., et al., No. 22STCV05968, resulted in an adverse jury verdict after a trial, with the jury awarding Plaintiffs a total of $36.0 in compensatory damages and $10.3 in punitive damages against Avon. The Company believes it has strong grounds for seeking to overturn the verdict in this case and in January 2023 began the process of appealing the verdict by seeking relief from the trial court. On March 1, 2023, following post-trial arguments, the trial court issued a conditional order reducing the compensatory damages award against Avon to $29.3. If Plaintiffs reject this reduction, there will be a new trial on the compensatory damages portion of the jury’s verdict. Avon will proceed with its appeal of the jury’s verdict in any event. We account for these claims in accordance with our loss contingency accounting policy as set out in Note 1: Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The company believes that the claims asserted against us in all of these cases are without merit and is defending vigorously against these claims and will continue to do so. However, additional similar cases arising out of the use of the Company's talc products are reasonably anticipated. Given the inherent uncertainties of litigation, it is not possible to predict the outcome of all individual cases pending against the Company or potential unasserted claims, and therefore a specific estimate and associated provision is made for a small number of individual cases that have advanced to the later stages of legal proceedings. This estimated liability for claims and associated legal costs incurred to date includes an amount for the Chapman case, however taking into consideration the strong grounds for appeal and seeking to overturn the verdict as noted above, should the Company ultimately lose the case, additional amounts representing a significant portion of the original awarded damages could be incurred. For the remaining filed cases, we record an estimate of exposure loss on an aggregated and ongoing basis, which takes into account the historical outcomes of all cases we have resolved to date. Any adverse outcomes, either in an individual case or in the aggregate, could be material. Future costs to litigate these cases, which we expense as incurred, are not known but may be significant, though some costs will be covered by insurance. Brazilian Labor-Related Litigation On an ongoing basis, the Company is subject to numerous and diverse labor-related lawsuits filed by employees in Brazil. These cases are assessed on an aggregated and ongoing basis based on historical outcomes of similar cases. The claims made are often for significantly larger sums than have historically been paid out by the Company. Our practice continues to be to recognize a liability based on our assessment of historical payments in similar cases. Our best estimate of the probable loss for such cases at December 31, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $10 and $11, respectively. Accordingly, we have recognized a liability for this amount. Other Matters Various other lawsuits and claims, arising in the ordinary course of business or related to businesses previously sold, are pending or threatened against Avon. In management’s opinion, based on its review of the information available at this time, the total cost of resolving such other contingencies at December 31, 2022, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
