BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of General Electric Company (the Company) and all companies that we directly or indirectly control, either through majority ownership or otherwise. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 that discusses our consolidation and financial statement presentation. As used in this report on Form 10-Q (Report), “GE” represents the adding together of all affiliated companies except GE Capital (GE Capital or Financial Services), whose continuing operations are presented on a one-line basis; GE Capital consists of GE Capital Global Holdings, LLC (GECGH) and all of its affiliates; and “Consolidated” represents the adding together of GE and GE Capital with the effects of transactions between the two eliminated. We have reclassified certain prior-period amounts to conform to the current-period presentation. Certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying numbers in millions. Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to the consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations. INTERIM PERIOD PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are unaudited. These statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that we considered necessary to present a fair statement of our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The results reported in these consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 . SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Please refer to Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 for the discussion of our significant accounting policies as well as the additional revenue accounting policy information provided in Note 9, reflective of our adoption of ASC 606. ACCOUNTING CHANGES On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , and the related amendments (ASC 606), which supersedes most previous U.S. GAAP revenue guidance. We elected to adopt the new standard on a retrospective basis to ensure a consistent basis of presentation within our consolidated financial statements for all periods reported. In addition, we elected the practical expedient for contract modifications, which essentially means that the terms of the contract that existed at the beginning of the earliest period presented can be assumed to have been in place since the inception of the contract (i.e., not practical to separately evaluate the effects of all prior contract modifications). ASC 606 requires companies to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer. As a result of the adoption of the standard, we recorded significant changes in the timing of revenue recognition and in the classification between revenues and costs. The financial statement effect of the adoption was a decrease to our previously reported retained earnings as of January 1, 2016 of $4,240 million and a decrease to our previously reported revenues and earnings (loss) from continuing operations of $2,224 million and $2,668 million , respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2017 and $220 million and $1,182 million , respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2016. The effect on our statement of financial position was principally comprised of changes to our contract assets, inventories, deferred taxes, deferred income and progress collections balances resulting in an $8,317 million decrease to previously reported total assets as of December 31, 2017. As discussed in prior filings, some of the impacts of adopting the ASC 606 are: Long-Term Service Agreements - For our long-term service agreements, we will continue to recognize revenue over time using percentage of completion based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. We will also continue to record cumulative effect adjustments resulting from changes to our estimated contract billings or costs (excluding those resulting from contract modifications as discussed below). Our accounting will be impacted by various changes in the new revenue standard including (1) accounting for contract modifications and their related impacts and (2) changes in the accounting scope and term of our contracts. • Modifications - Under the new revenue standard, contract modifications will generally be accounted for as if we entered into a new contract, resulting in prospective recognition of changes to our estimates of contract billings and costs. That is, cumulative effect adjustments will generally no longer be recognized in the period that modifications occur. There was limited guidance for accounting for contract modifications under prior U.S. GAAP. As a result, our previous method of accounting for contract modifications was developed with the objective of accounting for the nature of the contract modifications. Generally, contract modifications were accounted for as cumulative effect adjustments, which reflected an update to the contract margin for the impact of the modification (i.e., changes to estimates of future contract billings and costs); however, modifications that substantially changed the economics of the arrangement were effectively accounted for as a new contract. • Scope and term - The new revenue standard provides more prescriptive guidance on identifying the elements of long-term service type contracts that should be accounted for as separate performance obligations. Application of this guidance, which focuses on understanding the nature of the arrangement, including our customers' discretion in purchasing decisions, has resulted in changes to the scope of elements included in our accounting model for long-term service agreements. For example, significant equipment upgrades offered as part of our long-term service agreements will generally be accounted for as separate performance obligations under the new revenue standard. Also, the term of our contracts is now defined as the shorter of the stated term or the term not subject to customer termination without substantive penalty. Over this contract term, we estimate our revenues and related costs, including estimates of fixed and variable payments related to asset utilization and related costs to fulfill our performance obligations. Historically, our accounting for long-term contracts did not reflect an expectation that a contract would be terminated prior to the stated term, particularly when the probability of termination was considered remote. Under prior U.S. GAAP, while termination rights were considered, more emphasis was placed on expected outcomes (i.e., use of best estimates). For example, we used historical experience with similar types of contracts as well as other evidence (e.g., customer intent, economic compulsion and future plans for operating the asset) to determine the contract term for application of our accounting model. These changes to our long-term service agreement accounting have significantly impacted all of our industrial businesses except for Renewable Energy, Healthcare, and Lighting and were some of the drivers in the reduction of the related contract asset balance of $8,255 million as of December 31, 2017. While these contract asset balances have been reduced due to the accounting changes, the economics and cash impact of these contracts remain unchanged. Aviation Commercial Engines - For Aviation Commercial engines our previous method applied contract-specific estimated margin rates, which included the effect of estimated cost improvements over time, to costs incurred to determine the amount of revenue that should be recognized. The new revenue standard will result in a significant change from our previous long-term contract accounting model. While we will continue to recognize revenue at delivery, each engine is now accounted for as a separate performance obligation, reflecting the contractually stated price and manufacturing cost of each engine. The most significant effect of this change is on our new engine launches, where the cost of earlier production units is higher than the cost of later production units driven by expected cost improvements over the life of the engine program, which will generally result in lower earnings or increased losses on our early program engine deliveries to our customers. The effect of this change reduced the related contract asset balance of $1,755 million as of December 31, 2017. All Other Large Equipment - For the remainder of our equipment businesses, the new revenue standard’s emphasis on transfer of control rather than risks and rewards has resulted in an accelerated timing of revenue recognition versus our previous accounting for certain products. While this change impacts all our businesses, our Renewable Energy business was most significantly impacted on a year over year basis with certain of their products recognized at an earlier point in time compared to historical standards. Our policy under ASC 605 was to defer recognition until all risk had transferred to the customer, which was generally upon product installation or customer acceptance. For these equipment contracts, the customer has control of the equipment in advance of the related installation or acceptance event based on our evaluation of the indicators provided in ASC 606. Consistent with our industry peers, certain of our businesses’ products have transitioned either to a point in time or over time recognition based on the nature of the arrangement. This change in timing of revenue had an effect on inventory, contract assets and progress collections to reflect the transfer of control at an earlier point in time. Refer to our Form 8-K filed on April 13, 2018 for supplemental information on the effect of the adoption of ASC 606 to our financial statements. On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost . The ASU requires the service cost component of the net periodic costs for pension and postretirement plans to be presented in the same line item in the statement of earnings as other employee-related compensation costs. The non-service related costs are now required to be presented separately from the service cost component. This change to the income statement has been reflected on a retrospective basis and had no effect on continuing or net income. The new standard also added guidance requiring entities to exclude these non-service related costs from capitalization in inventory or other internally-developed assets on a prospective basis, which is not expected to have a significant effect. On January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash . The ASU requires the changes in the total of cash and restricted cash to be presented in the statement of cash flows. In addition, when cash and restricted cash are presented on separate lines on the balance sheet, an entity is required to reconcile the totals in the statement of cash flows to the related line items in the balance sheet. While not a direct effect of the adoption of the standard, to simplify the reconciliation of the statement of cash flows to the cash balances presented in our statement of financial position, we have elected to present cash and restricted cash as a single line on the balance sheet, which resulted in an increase of $668 million and $654 million to our previously reported December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 cash balances, respectively. The change to our cash balances and cash flows has been reflected on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory . The ASU eliminates the deferral of the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers other than inventory and was required to be adopted on a modified retrospective basis. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized as they are eliminated in consolidation. This change to our income tax provision has been reflected as a $464 million cumulative catch up adjustment to increase retained earnings as of January 1, 2018 and is not reflected in periods prior to this date. On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The ASU is required to be reflected on a retrospective basis and provides guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments, including requiring cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs be classified as financing activities and payments from a beneficial interest in securitization transactions be classified as investing activities. As part of the adoption, we will reclassify $553 million of cash receipts from our beneficial interest in securitized trade receivables within our consolidated statement of cash flows from cash inflows from operating activities to cash inflows from investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 (no effect to periods prior to 2017). The adoption of the ASU did not have a significant effect on our GE Industrial cash flows. On January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The ASU provides guidance related to the recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities with changes primarily affecting equity investments and disclosure of financial instruments. Under the new guidance, equity investments with readily determinable fair value, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The adoption had an insignificant impact to retained earnings and other comprehensive income. Effective January 1, 2018, we voluntarily changed the cost method of the GE U.S. inventories that were previously measured on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis to first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. We believe the FIFO method is a preferable measure for our inventories as it is expected to better reflect the current value of inventory reported in the consolidated statement of financial position, improve the matching of costs of goods sold with related revenue, and provide for greater consistency and uniformity across our operations with respect to the method of inventory valuation. While this change will also require us to make a conforming change for U.S. income tax purposes, all existing GE businesses previously using LIFO are expected to be in a deflationary cost environment due to the manufacturing life cycle of the products and continuous reduction in the manufacturing costs due to better efficiencies, which would significantly decrease the tax benefit that LIFO would otherwise provide. Prior to the change and as reported in our 2017 10-K, LIFO was used for approximately 32% of GE inventories as of December 31, 2017. As required by U.S. GAAP, we have reflected this change in accounting principle on a retrospective basis resulting in changes to the historical periods presented. The retrospective application of the change resulted in a decrease to our January 1, 2016 retained earnings of $105 million and a decrease to our net loss from continuing operations by $13 million , $28 million and $124 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, and a decrease to our net earnings from continuing operations by $147 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. This change did not affect our previously reported cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities. |

BUSINESSES HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS | NOTE 2. BUSINESSES HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF BUSINESSES HELD FOR SALE On November 13, 2017, the Company announced its intention to exit approximately $20 billion of assets over the next one to two years . Since this announcement, GE has classified various businesses across our Power, Lighting, Aviation and Healthcare segments as held for sale. As these businesses met the criteria for held for sale, we presented these businesses as a single asset and liability in our financial statements and recognized a valuation allowance, if necessary, to recognize the net carrying amount at the lower of cost or fair value, less cost to sell. To date, we have recorded a cumulative pre-tax loss on the planned disposals of $1,132 million ( $1,087 million after-tax), that was primarily recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017. In the first half of 2018, we closed certain of these transactions within our Power and Lighting segments for total net proceeds of $ 2,420 million, recognized a pre-tax gain of $ 238 million in the caption “Other income” in our consolidated Statement of Earnings (Loss) ($ 13 million after-tax) and liquidated $546 million of our previously recorded valuation allowance. These transactions are subject to customary working capital and other post-close adjustments. While we announced the strategic portfolio actions for Transportation, GE Healthcare and BHGE, these businesses have not met the accounting criteria for held for sale classification. That classification will depend on the nature and timing of the transaction.

These intercompany balances included within our held for sale businesses are reported in the GE and GE Capital columns of our financial statements, but are eliminated in deriving our consolidated financial statements. (b) We adjusted the carrying value to fair value less cost to sell for certain held for sale businesses. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Discontinued operations primarily relate to our financial services businesses . Discontinued operations primarily comprise residual assets and liabilities related to our exited U.S. mortgage business (WMC) , our mortgage portfolio in Poland, and trailing liabilities associated with the sale of our GE Capital businesses as a result of the GE Capital Exit Plan (our plan announced in 2015 to reduce the size of our financial services businesses). Results of operations, financial position and cash flows for these businesses are separately reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 19 for further information about indemnifications and further discussion on WMC.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES | NOTE 3. INVESTMENT SECURITIES Substantially all of our investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and comprise mainly investment-grade debt securities supporting obligations to annuitants and policyholders in our run-off insurance operations. We do not have any securities classified as held-to-maturity.

(b) These securities have readily determinable fair values and subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on January 1, 2018, changes in fair value are recorded to earnings. Net unrealized gains (losses) recorded to earnings related to these securities were $293 million and $29 million for the three months ended and $276 million and $29 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Investments with a fair value of $4,268 million and $4,413 million were classified within Level 3 (significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable) at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The remaining investments are substantially all classified within Level 2 (determined based on significant observable inputs). During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were no significant transfers into or out of Level 3 . In addition to equity securities with readily determinable fair value, we hold $594 million of equity securities without readily determinable fair value at June 30, 2018 that are classified within "All other assets" in our Statement of Financial Position and are recorded at cost less impairment and adjusted for observable price changes for identical or similar instruments. We recorded fair value increases of $ 35 million and $43 million to those securities based on observable transactions and impairments of $10 million and $15 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE AND GROSS UNREALIZED LOSSES OF AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE DEBT SECURITIES In loss position for Less than 12 months 12 months or more (In millions) Estimated fair value Gross unrealized losses Estimated Gross June 30, 2018 U.S. corporate $ 5,536 $ (170 ) $ 566 $ (65 ) Non-U.S. corporate 1,043 (33 ) 1,282 (5 ) State and municipal 317 (6 ) 282 (50 ) Mortgage and asset-backed 1,826 (47 ) 384 (19 ) Government and agencies 488 (26 ) 109 (1 ) Total $ 9,210 $ (282 ) $ 2,623 $ (140 ) December 31, 2017 U.S. corporate $ 502 $ (6 ) $ 605 $ (30 ) Non-U.S. corporate 1,169 (4 ) 3,685 (10 ) State and municipal 48 (1 ) 272 (39 ) Mortgage and asset-backed 979 (11 ) 318 (12 ) Government and agencies 395 (2 ) 69 — Total $ 3,093 $ (23 ) $ 4,949 $ (91 ) Unrealized losses are not indicative of the amount of credit loss that would be recognized and at June 30, 2018 are primarily due to increases in market yields subsequent to our purchase of the securities. We presently do not intend to sell the vast majority of our debt securities that are in an unrealized loss position and believe that it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the vast majority of these securities before anticipated recovery of our amortized cost. The methodologies and significant inputs used to measure the amount of credit loss for our debt securities during 2018 have not changed. Total pre-tax, other-than-temporary impairments on debt securities recognized in earnings were an insignificant amount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. CONTRACTUAL MATURITIES OF INVESTMENT IN AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE DEBT SECURITIES (EXCLUDING MORTGAGE AND ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES) (In millions) Amortized cost Estimated fair value Due Within one year $ 1,903 $ 1,910 After one year through five years 3,098 3,192 After five years through ten years 6,268 6,673 After ten years 18,900 21,105 We expect actual maturities to differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to call or prepay certain obligations. Although we generally do not have the intent to sell any specific securities at the end of the period, in the ordinary course of managing our investment securities portfolio, we may sell securities prior to their maturities for a variety of reasons, including diversification, credit quality, yield and liquidity requirements and the funding of claims and obligations to policyholders. Gross realized gains on available-for-sale debt securities were $9 million and $14 million , and gross realized losses were $(3) million and $(2) million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Gross realized gains on available-for-sale debt securities were $22 million and $109 million , and gross realized losses were $(3) million and $(3) million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Proceeds from investment securities sales and early redemptions by issuers totaled $385 million and $701 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively primarily from sales of U.S. Corporate, state and municipal securities and mortgage and asset backed securities and $706 million and $1,774 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively primarily from sales of U.S. Corporate, mortgage and asset backed securities and state and municipal securities. |

CURRENT RECEIVABLES Consolidated(a)(b) GE(c) (In millions) June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 Current receivables $ 21,715 $ 25,282 $ 15,438 $ 15,693 Allowance for losses (918 ) (1,073 ) (901 ) (1,055 ) Total $ 20,797 $ 24,209 $ 14,537 $ 14,638 (a) Included GE industrial customer receivables sold to a GE Capital affiliate and recorded on GE Capital’s balance sheet of $ 7,025 million and $ 10,370 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. The consolidated total included a deferred purchase price receivable of $ 413 million and $ 388 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively, related to our Receivables Facility (described below). (b) In order to manage credit exposure, the Company sells additional current receivables to third parties outside the Receivables Facility, substantially all of which are serviced by the Company. The outstanding balance of these current receivables was $ 2,694 million and $ 2,541 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. Of these balances, $ 1,641 million and $ 1,621 million was sold by GE to GE Capital prior to the sale to third parties at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , our maximum exposure to loss under the limited recourse arrangements is $ 50 million and $ 90 million, respectively. (c) GE current receivables balances at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , before allowance for losses, included $ 10,518 million and $ 10,452 million, respectively, from sales of goods and services to customers. The remainder of the balances primarily relates to supplier advances, revenue sharing programs and other non-income based tax receivables. RECEIVABLES FACILITY The Company has a $ 3,750 million revolving Receivables Facility under which receivables are sold directly to third-party purchasers. The third-party purchasers have no recourse to other assets of the Company in the event of non-payment by the debtors. Where the purchasing entity is a bank multi-seller commercial paper conduit, assets transferred by other parties to that entity form a majority of the entity’s assets. Upon sale of the receivables, we receive proceeds of cash and a deferred purchase price (DPP). The DPP is an interest in specified assets of the purchasers (the receivables sold by GE Capital) that entitles GE Capital to the residual cash flows of those specified assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , GE Industrial sold current receivables of $ 11,355 million to GE Capital, which GE Capital sold immediately to third parties under the Receivables Facility. GE Capital continues to service the current receivables for the purchasers. The Company received total cash collections of $ 11,245 million on previously sold current receivables owed to the purchasing entities. The purchasing entities invested $11,204 million , including $10,009 million of collections to purchase newly originated current receivables from the Company. In addition, the purchase of additional receivables by the purchasing entities increased their DPP obligation to the Company by $94 million and they paid $ 69 million to reduce their DPP obligation. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , the Company recorded a loss of $ 69 million on sales of current receivables to the third party purchasers. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , GE Capital, under the Receivables Facility, serviced $ 3,332 million and $3,222 million of transferred receivables that remain outstanding, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , the purchasers paid GE Capital servicing fees of $16 million. Given the short-term nature of the underlying receivables, discount rates and prepayments are not factors in determining the value of the DPP. Collections on the DPP are presented within Cash flows from investing activities in the GE Capital and consolidated columns in the Statement of Cash Flows. As the performance of the transferred current receivables is similar to the performance of our other current receivables, delinquencies are not expected to be significant. |

At June 30, 2018 , $779 million ( 4.7% ), $387 million ( 2.4% ) and $304 million ( 1.9% ) of financing receivables were over 30 days past due, over 90 days past due and on nonaccrual, respectively. Of the $304 million of nonaccrual financing receivables at June 30, 2018 , the vast majority are secured by collateral and $194 million are currently paying in accordance with the contractual terms. At December 31, 2017 , $550 million ( 2.5% ), $140 million ( 0.6% ) and $252 million ( 1.1% ) of financing receivables were over 30 days past due, over 90 days past due and on nonaccrual, respectively. The recorded investment in impaired loans at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $350 million and $286 million , respectively. The method used to measure impairment for these loans is primarily based on collateral value. At June 30, 2018 , troubled debt restructurings included in impaired loans were $133 million . The GE Capital financing receivables portfolio includes $2,248 million and $4,148 million of current receivables purchased from GE with recourse and $1,100 million and $1,141 million of financing receivables that are guaranteed by GE, of which $248 million and $239 million of these loans are on nonaccrual at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. These nonaccrual loans are impaired and are measured based on market and collateral value at a consolidated level, however, are not impaired loans at GE Capital because of the GE guarantee. Financing receivables that are guaranteed by GE are not included in the GE Capital nonaccrual data and financing receivables purchased from GE with recourse are not included in the GE Capital delinquency and nonaccrual data . In addition to the allowance for loan losses recorded at GE Capital, an additional allowance for loan losses of $160 and $161 million was recorded at GE and on a consolidated level for guaranteed loans at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. In connection with the strategic shift to make GE Capital smaller and more focused, we classified $2,231 million of Energy Financial Services financing receivables as held for sale at December 31, 2017, as we no longer intend to hold these financing receivables for the foreseeable future. The related held for sale balance at June 30, 2018 is $1,986 million . Pre-tax provisions for losses on financing receivables of $14 million and $137 million and write-offs of $14 million and $156 million were recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, respectively to reduce the carrying value of the financing receivables to the lower of cost or fair value, less cost to sell. Additionally, in connection with the GE Capital strategic shift, we classified $1,434 million of Healthcare Equipment Finance financing receivables as held for sale at June 30, 2018, and write-offs of $7 million were recorded at June 30, 2018, to reduce the carrying value of the financing receivables to the lower of cost or fair value, less cost to sell. |

ACQUISITIONS, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS LM WIND POWER On April 20, 2017 , we acquired LM Wind Power, the Danish maker of rotor blades for approximately $1,700 million. The purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $1,593 million and amortizable intangible assets of $206 million. BAKER HUGHES On July 3, 2017, GE completed the combination of GE’s Oil & Gas business (GE Oil & Gas) with Baker Hughes Incorporated (Baker Hughes). As part of the transaction, GE contributed GE Oil & Gas and $7,498 million in cash in exchange for an ownership interest of approximately 62.5% in the new combined company. The operating assets of the new combined company are held through a partnership named Baker Hughes, a GE company, LLC (BHGE LLC). GE holds an economic interest of approximately 62.5% in this partnership, and Baker Hughes’ former shareholders hold an ownership interest of approximately 37.5% through a newly NYSE listed corporation, Baker Hughes, a GE company (BHGE), which controls the partnership. In turn, GE holds a controlling, voting interest of approximately 62.5% in BHGE through Class B Common Stock, which grants voting rights but no economic rights. Baker Hughes’ former shareholders received one share of BHGE Class A Common Stock and a special one-time cash dividend of $17.50 per share at closing. Total consideration was $24,798 million , including the $7,498 million cash contribution. The Baker Hughes acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination, using the acquisition method. The net assets of Baker Hughes’ contributed businesses were recorded at their fair value, and GE Oil & Gas continues at its historical or carryover basis. We recorded noncontrolling interest of $16,235 million for the approximate 37.5% ownership interest in the combined company held by BHGE’s Class A shareholders. The noncontrolling interest is recorded at fair value for the portion attributable to Baker Hughes and at our historical cost for the portion attributable to GE Oil & Gas. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest associated with the acquired net assets was determined by the publicly traded share price of Baker Hughes at the close of the transaction. The impact of recognizing the noncontrolling interest in GE Oil & Gas resulted in an increase to additional paid in capital of $94 million . In the prior year, we disclosed that the impact of recognizing the noncontrolling interest was a decrease to additional paid in capital of $126 million . The primary reason for the change from prior year is the adoption of ASC 606 in the first quarter of 2018. The tables below present the fair value of the consideration exchanged and the allocation of purchase price to the major classes of assets and liabilities of the acquired Baker Hughes business and the associated fair value of preexisting noncontrolling interest related to the acquired net assets of Baker Hughes. PURCHASE PRICE (In millions) July 3, 2017 Cash consideration $ 7,498 Fair value of the Class A Shares in BHGE issued to Baker Hughes shareholders 17,300 Total consideration for Baker Hughes $ 24,798 IDENTIFIABLE ASSETS ACQUIRED AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED (In millions) July 3, 2017 Cash and cash equivalents $ 4,133 Accounts receivable 2,342 Inventories 1,712 Property, plant, and equipment - net 4,514 Other intangible assets - net 4,005 All other assets 1,335 Accounts payable (1,245 ) Borrowings (3,370 ) Deferred taxes (a) (249 ) All other liabilities (2,487 ) Total identifiable net assets 10,690 Fair value of existing noncontrolling interest (35 ) Goodwill 14,143 Total allocated purchase price $ 24,798 (a) Includes an increase of approximately $980 million primarily related to fair value adjustments to identifiable assets and liabilities (excluding goodwill) partially offset by a tax asset of approximately $553 million associated with the recognition of foreign tax credits. The fair value of intangible assets and related useful lives in the purchase price allocation included: (In millions) Fair value Estimated useful life (in years) Trade name - Baker Hughes $ 2,100 Indefinite life Customer-related 1,240 15 Patents and technology 465 10 Trademarks - Other 45 10 Capitalized software 64 2 In-process research and development 70 Indefinite life Favorable lease contracts 21 10 Total $ 4,005 The above goodwill represents future economic benefits expected to be recognized from combining the operations of GE Oil & Gas and Baker Hughes, including expected future synergies and operating efficiencies. Goodwill resulting from the acquisition has been allocated to our Oil & Gas reporting units, of which $67 million is deductible for tax purposes. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company made measurement period adjustments to reflect facts and circumstances in existence as of the acquisition date. These adjustments resulted in an increase in goodwill of approximately $787 million primarily due to reductions in the fair value of property, plant and equipment of $362 million , equity method investments of $228 million and intangible assets of $123 million , as well as an increase to other liabilities of $315 million primarily related to uncertain tax positions, warranty and other sundry liabilities. The increase in goodwill was partially offset by deferred tax adjustments of $251 million . As a result of the decrease in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a cumulative decrease to depreciation and amortization expense of $33 million . In addition, we reclassified certain legacy Baker Hughes business balances to conform to our presentation. INCOME TAXES BHGE LLC is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, accordingly, does not incur any material current or deferred U.S. federal income taxes. BHGE LLC’s foreign subsidiaries, however, are expected to incur current and deferred foreign income taxes. At closing, GE and BHGE, entered into a Tax Matters Agreement. The Tax Matters Agreement governs the administration and allocation between the parties of tax liabilities and benefits arising prior to, as a result of, and subsequent to the transaction. GE will be responsible for certain taxes related to the formation of the transaction undertaken by GE and Baker Hughes and their respective subsidiaries. We have assumed approximately $33 million of tax obligations of Baker Hughes related to the formation of the transaction. The Tax Matters Agreement will also provide for the sharing of certain tax benefits arising from the transaction. GE will be entitled to 100% of these tax benefits to the extent that GE has borne certain taxes related to the formation of the transaction. Thereafter, these tax benefits will be shared by GE and BHGE in accordance with their ownership of the partnership, which will initially be approximately 62.5% and approximately 37.5% , respectively. INTEGRATION AND ACQUISITION COSTS Integration and acquisition costs of $ 50 million and $ 85 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively and $96 million and $151 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively were expensed as incurred and were reported as selling, general and administrative expenses. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA INFORMATION The following unaudited pro forma information has been presented as if the Baker Hughes transaction occurred on January 1, 2016. This information has been prepared by combining the historical results of the Company and historical results of Baker Hughes. The unaudited pro forma combined financial data for all periods presented were adjusted to give effect to proforma events that i) are directly attributable to the aforementioned transaction, ii) factually supportable, and iii) expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results of operations. The unaudited combined pro forma results do not include any incremental cost savings that may result from the integration. The adjustments are based on information available to the Company at this time. Accordingly, the adjustments are subject to change and the impact of such changes may be material. The unaudited combined pro forma information is for informational purposes only. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the combined company’s results actually would have been had the acquisition been completed as of the beginning of the periods as indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma information does not purport to project the future results of the combined company.

Goodwill balances decreased by $1,504 million in 2018, primarily as a result of the reclassification of the Distributed Power business within our Power segment to Assets of businesses held for sale and currency effects of a stronger U.S. dollar, partially offset by adjustments to the allocation of purchase price associated with our acquisitions of Baker Hughes and LM Wind Power. We perform our annual impairment test of goodwill in the third quarter for all of our reporting units. In addition, to our annual testing, we also test goodwill for impairment between annual impairment testing dates whenever events or circumstances occur, that, in our judgment, could more likely than not reduce the fair value of one or more of our reporting units below its carrying amount. In assessing the possibility that a reporting unit’s fair value has been reduced below its carrying amount due to the occurrence of events or circumstances between annual impairment testing dates, we consider all available evidence, including (i) the results of our impairment testing from the most recent testing date (in particular, the magnitude of the excess of fair value over carrying value observed), (ii) downward revisions to internal forecasts or decreases in market multiples (and the magnitude thereof), if any, and (iii) declines in our market capitalization (and the magnitude and duration of those declines), if any. As a result of this assessment, we performed an interim step-one impairment test at our Power Generation and Grid Solutions reporting units within our Power segment in the second quarter of 2018. The results of the analysis indicated that fair value was in excess of carrying value by approximately 10% for our Power Generation reporting unit and 9% at our Grid Solutions reporting unit. The goodwill associated with our Power Generation and Grid Solutions reporting units was $19,041 million and $4,586 million , respectively, representing approximately 23% and 6% of our total goodwill at June 30, 2018. Also, in the second quarter of 2018, as a result of classifying a significant portion of Healthcare Equipment Finance’s financing receivables as assets held for sale, we performed an interim step-one impairment test at our Industrial Finance reporting unit within our Capital segment. The results of the analysis indicated that fair value was in excess of carrying value by approximately 12% . While the goodwill of this reporting unit is not currently impaired, there could be an impairment in the future as a consequence of the disposition of these financing receivables classified as assets held for sale. The goodwill associated with our Industrial Finance reporting unit was $ 111 million at June 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, we believe goodwill is recoverable for all of our reporting units. However, the Power and Oil & Gas markets continue to be challenging which could result in changes in our projected future earnings and net cash flows at these businesses as a result of sustained declines in macroeconomic or business conditions affecting our reporting units and there can be no assurances that goodwill will not be impaired in future periods. The planned sale of our Distributed Power business is not expected to materially affect the goodwill impairment test results for our Power Generation reporting unit noted above.

Intangible assets subject to amortization decreased by $ 557 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 , primarily as a result of amortization, currency effects of a stronger U.S. dollar and the reclassification of the Distributed Power business to Assets of businesses held for sale, partially offset by the acquisition of a technology intangible asset of $632 million at our Aviation business and the capitalization of new software across several business platforms . GE amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization was $ 540 million and $ 530 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively and $1,141 million and $1,049 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. GE Capital amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization was $ 15 million and $ 14 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively and $ 30 million and $ 34 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
REVENUES | NOTE 9. REVENUES REVENUES FROM THE SALE OF EQUIPMENT PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED OVER TIME We recognize revenue on agreements for the sale of customized goods including power generation equipment, larger oil drilling equipment projects, military development contracts, locomotive units, and long-term construction projects on an over time basis. We recognize revenue using percentage of completion based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. Our estimate of costs to be incurred to fulfill our promise to a customer is based on our history of manufacturing or constructing similar assets for customers and is updated routinely to reflect changes in quantity or pricing of the inputs. We recognize revenue as we customize the customer's equipment during the manufacturing or integration process and obtain right to payment for work performed. We provide for potential losses on any of these agreements when it is probable that we will incur the loss. Our billing terms for these over-time contracts vary, but are generally based on achieving specified milestones. The differences between the timing of our revenue recognized (based on costs incurred) and customer billings (based on contractual terms) results in changes to our contract asset or contract liability positions (see Note 10 for further information). PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED AT A POINT IN TIME We recognize revenue on agreements for non-customized equipment including commercial aircraft engines, healthcare equipment, resource extraction equipment and other goods we manufacture on a standardized basis for sale to the market at a point in time. We recognize revenue at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the good, which is generally no earlier than when the customer has physical possession of the product. We use proof of delivery for certain large equipment with more complex logistics, whereas the delivery of other equipment is estimated based on historical averages of in-transit periods (i.e., time between shipment and delivery). In situations where arrangements include customer acceptance provisions based on seller or customer-specified objective criteria, we recognize revenue when we have concluded that the customer has control of the goods and that acceptance is likely to occur. We generally do not provide for anticipated losses on point in time transactions prior to transferring control of the equipment to the customer. Our billing terms for these point in time equipment contracts vary and generally coincide with delivery to the customer; however, within certain businesses, we receive progress payments from customers for large equipment purchases, which is generally to reserve production slots. REVENUES FROM THE SALE OF SERVICES Consistent with our discussion in the MD&A and the way we manage our businesses, we refer to sales under product services agreements and sales of both goods (such as spare parts and equipment upgrades) and related services (such as monitoring, maintenance and repairs) as sales of “services,” which is an important part of our operations. PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED OVER TIME We enter into long-term product service agreements with our customers primarily within our Aviation, Power, Oil & Gas and Transportation segments. These agreements require us to provide preventative maintenance, overhauls, and standby "warranty-type" services that include certain levels of assurance regarding asset performance and uptime throughout the contract periods, which generally range from 5 to 25 years . We account for items that are integral to the maintenance of the equipment as part of our service related performance obligation, unless the customer has a substantive right to make a separate purchasing decision (e.g., equipment upgrade). We recognize revenue as we perform under the arrangements using percentage of completion based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. Throughout the life of a contract, this measure of progress captures the nature, timing and extent of our underlying performance activities as our stand-ready services often fluctuate between routine inspections and maintenance, unscheduled service events and major overhauls at pre-determined usage intervals. Contract modifications that extend or revise contract terms are not uncommon and generally result in our recognizing the impact of the revised terms prospectively over the remaining life of the modified contract (i.e., effectively like a new contract). Our billing terms for these arrangements are generally based on the utilization of the asset (e.g., per hour of usage) or upon the occurrence of a major maintenance event within the contract, such as an overhaul. The differences between the timing of our revenue recognized (based on costs incurred) and customer billings (based on contractual terms) results in changes to our contract asset or contract liability positions (see Note 10 for further information). Changes in customer utilization can influence the timing and extent of overhauls and other service events over the life of the contract. As a result, the revenue recognized each period is dependent on our estimate of how customers will utilize their assets over the term of the agreement. We generally use a combination of both historical utilization trends as well as forward-looking information such as market conditions and potential asset retirements in developing our revenue estimates. This estimate of customer utilization will impact both the total contract billings and costs to satisfy our obligation to maintain the equipment. In developing our cost estimates, we utilize a combination of our historical cost experience and expected cost improvements. Cost improvements are generally only included in future cost estimates after savings have been observed in actual results or proven to be effective through an extensive regulatory engineering approval process. We also enter into long-term product services agreements in our Healthcare and Renewable Energy segments. Revenues are recognized for these arrangements on a straight line basis consistent with the nature, timing and extent of our services, which primarily relate to routine maintenance and as needed product repairs. Our billing terms for these contracts vary, but we generally invoice periodically as services are provided. PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS SATISFIED AT A POINT IN TIME We sell certain tangible products, largely spare equipment, through our services businesses. We recognize revenues and bill our customers for this equipment at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the good, which is at the point in time we deliver the spare part to the customer.

REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATION As of June 30, 2018, the aggregate amount of the contracted revenues allocated to our unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations was $249,574 million . We expect to recognize revenue as we satisfy our remaining performance obligations as follows: • Equipment - total remaining performance obligation of $50,982 million of which 53% , 71% and 93% is expected to be satisfied within 1 , 2 and 5 years , respectively, and the remaining thereafter. • Service - total remaining performance obligation of $198,592 million of which 17% , 54% , 77% and 88% is expected to be recognized within 1 , 5 , 10 and 15 years , respectively, and the remaining thereafter. • Contract modifications could affect both the timing to complete as well as the amount to be received as we fulfill the related remaining performance obligations. |

(c) Included in this balance are amounts due from customers for the sale of service upgrades, which we collect through higher fixed or usage-based fees from servicing the equipment under long-term product service agreements. Amounts due from these financing arrangements totaled $799 million and $748 million , as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. (d) Represents cost deferral for shipped goods (such as components for wind turbine assembly within our Renewable Energy segment) and labor and overhead costs on time and material service contracts (primarily originating in Power and Aviation) and other costs for which the criteria for revenue recognition has not yet been met. (e) Includes costs incurred prior to production (e.g., requisition engineering) for equipment production contracts, primarily within our Aviation segment, which are allocated ratably to each unit produced. Contract and other deferred assets increased $431 million in 2018, which was largely driven by a change in estimated profitability of $133 million within our long-term product service agreements, primarily due to an increase at Power ( $223 million ) partially offset by a decrease at Aviation ( $140 million ). In addition, revenue in excess of billings on our long-term product service agreements increased $309 million , primarily at Power ( $241 million ), and non-recurring engineering costs increased $223 million , primarily at Aviation ( $138 million ). Our equipment related contract assets decreased $141 million , primarily due to a decrease at Power ($ 510 million), partially offset by increases at Healthcare ( $138 million ), Aviation ( $136 million ) and Transportation ( $132 million ), and deferred inventory costs decreased $126 million due to decreases at Power ( $308 million ) and Oil & Gas ( $114 million ), partially offset by an increase at Renewable Energy ( $338 million ), due to the timing of revenue recognized for work performed relative to the timing of billings.

INVESTMENT CONTRACTS, INSURANCE LIABILITIES AND INSURANCE ANNUITY BENEFITS | NOTE 12. INVESTMENT CONTRACTS, INSURANCE LIABILITIES AND INSURANCE ANNUITY BENEFITS Insurance and investment contract liabilities comprise mainly obligations to policyholders and annuitants in our run-off insurance activities. (In millions) June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 Future policy benefit reserves Long-term care insurance contracts $ 16,380 $ 16,522 Structured settlement annuities with life contingencies and other contracts 9,544 9,448 Shadow adjustments(a) 2,704 4,582 28,628 30,552 Investment contracts 2,482 2,569 Claim reserves(b) 5,233 5,094 Unearned premiums and other 419 372 36,762 38,587 Eliminations (529 ) (451 ) Total $ 36,233 $ 38,136 (a) To the extent that unrealized gains on debt securities supporting our insurance contracts would result in a premium deficiency should those gains be realized, an increase in future policy benefit reserves is recorded, with an offsetting amount recorded in Other comprehensive income, net of taxes. (b) Includes $3,754 million and $3,590 million related to long-term care insurance contracts and $359 million and $364 million related to short-duration contracts, net of eliminations, at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. During 2017, in response to elevated claim experience for a portion of our long-term care insurance contracts that was most pronounced for policyholders with higher attained ages, we initiated a comprehensive review of premium deficiency assumptions across all insurance products, which included reconstructing our future claim cost assumptions for long-term care contracts utilizing trends observed in our emerging experience for older claimant ages and later duration policies. Certain of our long-term care policyholders only recently started to reach the prime claim paying period and our new claim cost assumptions considered the emerging credibility of this claim data. In addition to the adverse impact from the increased expected future claim cost assumptions over a long-term horizon, our premium deficiency assumptions considered mortality, length of time a policy will remain in force and both near-term and longer-term investment return expectations. Future investment yields estimated in 2017 were lower than in previous premium deficiency tests, primarily due to the effect of near-term yields on approximately $14.5 billion of future expected capital contributions. The indicated premium deficiency resulted in a $9,481 million pre-tax charge to earnings in the fourth quarter of 2017. In response to the premium deficiency, our future policy benefit reserves at December 31, 2017 were unlocked and updated to reflect our most recent assumptions. Our future policy benefit reserves are subject to premium deficiency testing at least annually, which we expect to perform in the second half of the year. Any future adverse changes in our assumptions could result in an increase to future policy benefit reserves. Any favorable changes to these assumptions could result in additional margin in our premium deficiency test and higher income over the remaining duration of the portfolio, including higher investment income. Claim reserves included incurred claims of $1,004 million and $975 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, of which $1 million and $32 million related to the recognition of adjustments to prior year claim reserves arising from our periodic reserve evaluation, in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Paid claims were $904 million and $864 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The vast majority of paid claims relate to prior year insured events primarily as a result of the length of time long-term care policyholders remain on claim. When insurance companies cede insurance risk to third parties, such as reinsurers, they are not relieved of their primary obligation to policyholders and cedents. When losses on ceded risks give rise to claims for recovery, we establish allowances for probable losses on such receivables from reinsurers as required. Reinsurance recoverables, net are included in the caption “Other GE Capital receivables” on our consolidated Statement of Financial Position, and amounted to $2,448 million and included $751 million related to ceded claim reserves at June 30, 2018. Reinsurance recoverables amounted to $2,458 million and included $715 million related to ceded claim reserves at December 31, 2017. The vast majority of our remaining net reinsurance recoverables are secured by assets held in a trust for which we are the beneficiary. We recognize reinsurance recoveries as a reduction of the consolidated Statement of Earnings (Loss) caption “Investment contracts, insurance losses and insurance annuity benefits.” Reinsurance recoveries were $56 million and $109 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $117 million and $235 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our run-off insurance subsidiaries are required to prepare statutory financial statements in accordance with statutory accounting practices that differ in certain respects from GAAP. Statutory accounting practices are set forth by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners as well as state laws, regulation and general administrative rules. In the fourth quarter of 2017 we recorded a premium deficiency pre-tax charge to earnings of $9,481 million on a GAAP basis. For statutory accounting purposes, the Kansas Insurance Department approved our request for a permitted statutory accounting practice to recognize the reserve increase over a seven -year period. As a result, GE Capital contributed capital to its insurance subsidiaries of $3.5 billion in the first quarter of 2018 and expects to contribute approximately an additional $11 billion through 2024 subject to ongoing monitoring by the Kansas Insurance Department. GE is required to maintain specified capital levels at these insurance subsidiaries under capital maintenance agreements. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS | NOTE 13. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS We sponsor a number of pension and retiree health and life insurance benefit plans. Principal pension plans are the GE Pension Plan and the GE Supplementary Pension Plan. Principal retiree benefit plans provide health and life insurance benefits to certain eligible participants and these participants share in the cost of the healthcare benefits. Other pension plans include the U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans with pension assets or obligations greater than $50 million . Smaller pension plans and other retiree benefit plans are not material individually or in the aggregate.

INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES Our consolidated effective income tax rates were 29.5% and (13.2)% during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The rate for 2018 was higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to a change in deferred taxes resulting from the decision to execute an internal restructuring to separate the Healthcare business and the cost of the newly enacted base erosion and global intangible income provisions in excess of the benefit from other global activities and dispositions taxed at a rate above the statutory rate. This was partially offset by an adjustment to decrease the 2018 six-month tax rate to be in line with the lower expected full-year rate and U.S. business credits. The rate for 2017 benefited from the tax difference on global activities and U.S. business credits partially offset by an adjustment to increase the 2017 six-month tax rate to be in line with the higher expected full-year rate. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted legislation commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. tax reform”) that lowered the statutory tax rate on U.S. earnings to 21%, taxes historic foreign earnings at a reduced rate of tax, establishes a territorial tax system and enacts new taxes associated with global operations. The impact of enactment of U.S. tax reform has been recorded on a provisional basis as the legislation provides for additional guidance to be issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on several provisions including the computation of the transition tax. Guidance during 2018 could impact the information required for and the calculation of the transition tax charge and could affect decisions that affect the tax on various U.S. and foreign items, which would further impact the final amounts included in the transition charge and impact the revaluation of deferred taxes. In addition, analysis performed and conclusions reached as part of the tax return filing process and additional guidance on accounting for U.S. tax reform could affect the provisional amount. Additionally, as part of tax reform, the U.S. has enacted a minimum tax on foreign earnings (“global intangible low tax income”). We have not made an accounting policy election on the deferred tax treatment and, consequently, we have not made an accrual for the deferred tax aspects of this provision. With the enactment of U.S. tax reform, we recorded, for the period ending December 31, 2017, tax expense of $4,512 million to reflect our provisional estimate of both the transition tax on historic foreign earnings ( $1,155 million including $2,925 million at GE and $(1,770) million at GE Capital) and the revaluation of deferred taxes ( $3,357 million including $1,980 million at GE and $1,377 million at GE Capital). We have not significantly adjusted our provisional estimate of the enactment of U.S. tax reform during the second quarter of 2018 as we continue to analyze information related to our operations as well as new guidance and other aspects of the enacted provisions. Based on our preliminary analysis through the second quarter of the enacted law, including advice from outside advisors, we believe the provisional estimate of the impact of enactment, as recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017 and adjusted during 2018 remains a reasonable estimate of the effects of enactment. We will finalize the impact of enactment during the second half of 2018 based on additional government guidance expected to be issued and additional analysis of our information including the filing of our 2017 tax return. However, there were discrete changes in the provisional estimate identified primarily at Baker Hughes in connection with the measurement period adjustments to purchase price allocation and the associated impact of the change in tax rate on deferred taxes that reduced the provisional amounts recorded by $79 million in the first six months of 2018. Of this benefit, $134 million relates to non-consolidated operations and did not affect net earnings attributable to the company as there is an offsetting adjustment in income from noncontrolling interests. The net remaining cost of $55 million also relates primarily to the revaluation of deferred taxes corresponding to measurement period adjustments to the purchase price allocation for the Baker Hughes acquisition. Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and respective governmental taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in determining our tax expense and in evaluating our tax positions. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date. UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS (In millions) June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 Unrecognized tax benefits $ 5,130 $ 5,449 Portion that, if recognized, would reduce tax expense and effective tax rate(a) 3,745 3,626 Accrued interest on unrecognized tax benefits 860 810 Accrued penalties on unrecognized tax benefits 188 158 Reasonably possible reduction to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits in succeeding 12 months 0-1,300 0-1,100 Portion that, if recognized, would reduce tax expense and effective tax rate(a) 0-1,200 0-900 (a) Some portion of such reduction may be reported as discontinued operations. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently auditing our consolidated U.S. income tax returns for 2012 - 2013 and has begun the audit for 2014-2015. In addition, certain other U.S. tax deficiency issues and refund claims for previous years are still unresolved. It is reasonably possible that a portion of the unresolved items could be resolved during the next 12 months, which could result in a decrease in our balance of "unrecognized tax benefits" - that is, the aggregate tax effect of differences between tax return positions and the benefits recognized in our financial statements. We believe that there are no other jurisdictions in which the outcome of unresolved issues or claims is likely to be material to our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We further believe that we have made adequate provision for all income tax uncertainties. |

See Note 12 for further information. (b) Recorded in "Total revenues" and "Other income" and income taxes in "Benefit (provision) for income taxes" in our consolidated Statement of Earnings (Loss). Currency translation gains and losses on dispositions included zero and $(2) million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and zero and $510 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, in earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes.

(g) On January 1, 2018, we adopted several new accounting standards on a modified retrospective basis. Cumulative impact of these changes was recorded in the opening retained earnings and it increased our retained earnings by $500 million , primarily due to an increase of $464 million related to ASU 2016-16. See Note 1 for further information. SHARES OF GE PREFERRED STOCK On January 20, 2016, we issued $5,694 million of GE Series D preferred stock following an exchange offer for existing GE series A, B and C. The Series D preferred stock bear a fixed interest rate of 5.00% through January 21, 2021 and floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 3.33% thereafter. The Series D preferred stock are callable on January 21, 2021. Following the exchange offer, $250 million of GE Series A, B and C preferred stock still remain outstanding with an initial average fixed dividend rate of 4.07% . The total carrying value of GE preferred stock at June 30, 2018 was $5,495 million and will increase to $5,944 million through periodic accretion. Dividends on GE preferred stock are payable semi-annually, in June and December and accretion is recorded on a quarterly basis. Dividends on GE preferred stock totaled $185 million , including cash dividends of $147 million , and $182 million , including cash dividends of $147 million , in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively and $222 million , including cash dividends of $147 million , and $216 million , including cash dividends of $147 million , in the six months ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. In conjunction with the 2016 exchange of the GE Capital preferred stock into GE preferred stock and the exchange of Series A, B and C preferred stock into Series D preferred stock, GE Capital issued preferred stock to GE for which the amount and terms mirrored the GE preferred stock held by external investors ( $5,495 million carrying value at June 30, 2018). On July 1, 2018, GE Capital and GE exchanged the existing Series D preferred stock issued to GE for new Series D preferred stock which is mandatorily convertible into GE Capital common stock on January 21, 2021. The cash dividend on the new GE Capital preferred stock will equal the cash dividend and accretion on the GE Series D preferred stock through January 21, 2021, at which time the GE Capital preferred stock will convert to GE Capital common stock. The exchange of GE Capital Series D preferred stock has no impact on the GE Series D preferred stock, which remains callable for $5,694 million on January 21, 2021 or thereafter on dividend payment dates. Additionally, there were no changes to the existing Series A, B or C preferred stock issued to GE. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS Noncontrolling interests in equity of consolidated affiliates include common shares in consolidated affiliates and preferred stock issued by our affiliates. CHANGES TO NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS Three months ended June 30 Six months ended June 30 (In millions) 2018 2017 2018 2017 Beginning balance $ 17,228 $ 1,639 $ 17,468 $ 1,663 Net earnings (loss) (15 ) 14 52 20 Dividends (81 ) (22 ) (164 ) (31 ) Other(a) (446 ) 2 (669 ) (18 ) Ending balance at June 30 $ 16,685 $ 1,634 $ 16,685 $ 1,634 (a) Includes impact of AOCI, acquisitions, dispositions and BHGE stock repurchases. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS Redeemable noncontrolling interests presented in our Statement of Financial Position include common shares issued by our affiliates that are redeemable at the option of the holder of those interests. As part of the Alstom acquisition in 2015, we formed three joint ventures in grid technology, renewable energy, and global nuclear and French steam power. Noncontrolling interests in these joint ventures hold certain redemption rights. Our retained earnings is adjusted for subsequent changes in the redemption value of the noncontrolling interest in these entities to the extent that the redemption value exceeds the carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest. Alstom holds redemption rights with respect to its interest in the grid technology and renewable energy joint ventures, which, if exercised, would require us to purchase all of their interest during September 2018 or September 2019. Alstom also holds similar redemption rights for the global nuclear and French steam power joint venture that are exercisable during the first quarter of 2021 or the first quarter of 2022. The redemption price would generally be equal to Alstom's initial investment plus annual accretion of 3% for the grid technology and renewable energy joint ventures and plus annual accretion of 2% for the nuclear and French steam power joint venture, with potential upside sharing based on an EBITDA multiple. Alstom also holds additional redemption rights in other limited circumstances as well as a call option to require GE to sell all of its interests in the renewable energy joint venture at the higher of fair value or Alstom's initial investment plus annual accretion of 3% during the month of May in the years 2017 through 2019 and also upon a decision to IPO the joint venture. GE holds a call option on Alstom's interest in the global nuclear and French steam power joint venture at the same amount as Alstom's redemption price in the event that Alstom exercises its put option in the grid technology or renewable energy joint ventures. GE also has call options on Alstom's interest in the three joint ventures in other limited circumstances. In addition, the French Government holds a preferred interest in the global nuclear and French steam power joint venture, giving it certain protective rights. In January 2018, Alstom informed us that they intend to exercise their redemption rights with respect to the grid technology and renewable energy joint ventures in September 2018. Pursuant to an agreement signed between Alstom and GE in May 2018, if Alstom exercises its redemption rights in September 2018 with respect to the grid technology and renewable energy joint ventures, GE will be deemed to have exercised its option to acquire Alstom’s interest in the nuclear and French steam power joint venture. The price that GE would be required to pay, would be €1,832 million for the grid technology joint venture, €638 million for the renewable energy joint venture, and €125 million for the nuclear and French steam power joint venture. The transfer of all interests would occur in October 2018.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, pursuant to the two-class method, as a result of excess dividends in respect to the current period earnings, losses were not allocated to the participating securities. (b) Included an insignificant amount of dividend equivalents in each of the periods presented. F or the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , approximately 411 million and 33 million of outstanding stock awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect was antidilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, approximately 407 million and 26 million of outstanding stock awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect was antidilutive. Earnings per share amounts are computed independently for earnings from continuing operations, loss from discontinued operations and net earnings. As a result, the sum of per-share amounts from continuing operations and discontinued operations may not equal the total per-share amounts for net earnings. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | NOTE 17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following table provides information about assets and liabilities not carried at fair value. The table excludes finance leases, equity investments without readily determinable fair value and non-financial assets and liabilities. Substantially all of the assets discussed below are considered to be Level 3. The vast majority of our liabilities’ fair value can be determined based on significant observable inputs and thus considered Level 2. Few of the instruments are actively traded and their fair values must often be determined using financial models. Realization of the fair value of these instruments depends upon market forces beyond our control, including marketplace liquidity.

(c) Included $ 650 million and $ 696 million of accrued interest in estimated fair value at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. (d) Fair values exclude interest rate and currency derivatives designated as hedges of borrowings. Had they been included, the fair value of borrowings at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 would have been reduced by $ 1,255 million and $ 1,754 million, respectively. (e) Included $ 485 million and $ 731 million of accrued interest in estimated fair value at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively.

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING FORMS OF HEDGING In this section we explain the hedging methods we use and their effects on our financial statements. Cash flow hedges – We use cash flow hedging primarily to reduce or eliminate the effects of foreign exchange rate changes on purchase and sale contracts in our industrial businesses and to convert foreign currency debt that we have issued in our financial services business back to our functional currency. As part of our ongoing effort to reduce borrowings, we may repurchase debt that was in a cash flow hedge accounting relationship. At the time of determining that the debt cash flows are probable of not occurring any related OCI will be released to earnings. Fair value hedges – These derivatives are used to hedge the effects of interest rate and currency exchange rate changes on debt that we have issued. Net investment hedges – We invest in foreign operations that conduct their financial services activities in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We hedge the currency risk associated with those investments primarily using non-derivative instruments such as debt denominated in a foreign currency and short-term currency exchange contracts under which we receive U.S. dollars and pay foreign currency. Economic hedges – These derivatives are not designated as hedges from an accounting standpoint (and therefore we do not apply hedge accounting to the relationship) but otherwise serve the same economic purpose as other hedging arrangements. We use economic hedges when we have exposures to currency exchange risk for which we are unable to meet the requirements for hedge accounting or when changes in the carrying amount of the hedged item are already recorded in earnings in the same period as the derivative making hedge accounting unnecessary. Even though the derivative is an effective economic hedge, there may be a net effect on earnings in each period due to differences in the timing of earnings recognition between the derivative and the hedged item. NOTIONAL AMOUNT OF DERIVATIVES The notional amount of a derivative is the number of units of the underlying (for example, the notional principal amount of the debt in an interest rate swap). The notional amount is used to compute interest or other payment streams to be made under the contract and is a measure of our level of activity. We generally disclose derivative notional amounts on a gross basis. The majority of the outstanding notional amount of $147 billion at June 30, 2018 is related to managing interest rate and currency risk between financial assets and liabilities in our financial services business. The remaining derivative notional amount primarily relates to hedges of anticipated sales and purchases in foreign currency, commodity purchases and contractual terms in contracts that are considered embedded derivatives. The table below provides additional information about how derivatives are reflected in our financial statements. Derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value exclusive of interest earned or owed on interest rate derivatives, which is presented separately on our Statement of Financial Position. Cash collateral and securities held as collateral represent assets that have been provided by our derivative counterparties as security for amounts they owe us (derivatives that are in an asset position). FAIR VALUE OF DERIVATIVES June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 (In millions) Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities Derivatives accounted for as hedges Interest rate contracts $ 1,452 $ 267 $ 1,862 $ 148 Currency exchange contracts 181 93 160 70 1,632 360 2,021 218 Derivatives not accounted for as hedges Interest rate contracts 37 2 93 8 Currency exchange contracts 1,514 2,864 1,111 2,043 Other contracts 74 108 139 91 1,625 2,975 1,343 2,143 Gross derivatives recognized in statement of financial position Gross derivatives 3,257 3,334 3,364 2,361 Gross accrued interest 273 (12 ) 469 (38 ) 3,530 3,322 3,833 2,323 Amounts offset in statement of financial position Netting adjustments(a) (2,044 ) (2,043 ) (1,457 ) (1,456 ) Cash collateral(b) (955 ) (763 ) (1,529 ) (578 ) (2,999 ) (2,807 ) (2,986 ) (2,034 ) Net derivatives recognized in statement of financial position Net derivatives 530 515 847 289 Amounts not offset in statement of financial position Securities held as collateral(c) (102 ) — (405 ) — Net amount $ 429 $ 515 $ 441 $ 289 Derivatives are classified in the captions "All other assets" and "All other liabilities" and the related accrued interest is classified in "Other GE Capital receivables" and "All other liabilities" in our Statement of Financial Position. (a) The netting of derivative receivables and payables is permitted when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists. Amounts include fair value adjustments related to our own and counterparty non-performance risk. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the cumulative adjustment for non-performance risk was $(1) million and $(1) million , respectively. (b) Excluded excess cash collateral received and posted of $218 million and $425 million at June 30, 2018 , respectively, and $10 million and $255 million at December 31, 2017 , respectively. Excess cash collateral posted includes initial margin for cleared trades. (c) Excluded excess securities collateral received of $7 million and $16 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , respectively. EFFECTS OF DERIVATIVES ON EARNINGS All derivatives are marked to fair value on our balance sheet, whether they are designated in a hedging relationship for accounting purposes or are used as economic hedges. Three months ended June 30 Six months ended June 30 (In millions) Effect on hedging instrument Effect on underlying Effect on earnings (a) Effect on hedging instrument Effect on underlying Effect on earnings 2018 Cash flow hedges $ (161 ) $ 162 $ — $ (19 ) $ 20 $ 1 Fair value hedges (225 ) 195 (30 ) (922 ) 866 (56 ) Net investment hedges(b) 816 (810 ) 6 213 (205 ) 8 Economic hedges(c) (1,248 ) 1,244 (3 ) (783 ) 670 (113 ) Total $ (27 ) $ (160 ) 2017 Cash flow hedges $ 34 $ (34 ) $ — $ 56 $ (56 ) $ — Fair value hedges (57 ) 2 (56 ) (282 ) 164 (118 ) Net investment hedges(b) (487 ) 490 3 (1,050 ) 1,063 13 Economic hedges(c) 979 (1,180 ) (200 ) 641 (956 ) (315 ) Total $ (253 ) $ (420 ) The amounts in the table above generally do not include associated derivative accruals in income or expense. (a) For cash flow and fair value hedges, the effect on earnings is primarily related to ineffectiveness. For net investment hedges, the effect on earnings is related to ineffectiveness and spot-forward differences. (b) Both non-derivatives and derivatives hedging instruments are included. The carrying value of non-derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges was $(20,750) million and $(24,232) million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Total pre-tax reclassifications from CTA to gain (loss) was zero and $59 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Total pre-tax reclassifications from CTA to gain (loss) included zero and $59 million recorded in discontinued operations at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. (c) Net effect is substantially offset by the change in fair value of the hedged item that will affect earnings in future periods. Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in a separate component of equity (referred to below as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, or AOCI) and are recorded in earnings in the period in which the hedged transaction occurs. The table below summarizes this activity by hedging instrument. CASH FLOW HEDGE ACTIVITY Gain (loss) recognized in AOCI Gain (loss) reclassified for the three months ended June 30 for the three months ended June 30 (In millions) 2018 2017 2016 2018 2017 2016 Interest rate contracts $ (3 ) $ 3 $ 12 $ (4 ) $ (6 ) $ (26 ) Currency exchange contracts (158 ) 32 1 (68 ) 71 40 Commodity contracts — (2 ) (1 ) — — (1 ) Total(a) $ (162 ) $ 34 $ 12 $ (72 ) $ 65 $ 14 CASH FLOW HEDGE ACTIVITY Gain (loss) recognized in AOCI Gain (loss) reclassified for the six months ended June 30 for the six months ended June 30 (In millions) 2018 2017 2016 2018 2017 2016 Interest rate contracts $ (7 ) $ 2 $ 31 $ (6 ) $ (15 ) $ (55 ) Currency exchange contracts (13 ) 54 (77) (1 ) 79 (13 ) Commodity contracts — — — — — (3 ) Total(a) $ (20 ) $ 56 $ (45 ) $ (7 ) $ 64 $ (71 ) (a) Gain (loss) is recorded in "GE Capital revenues from services", "Interest and other financial charges", "Sales of goods", "Cost of goods sold" and "Other costs and expenses" in our Statement of Earnings when reclassified. The total pre-tax amount in AOCI related to cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions was a $80 million gain at June 30, 2018 . We expect to transfer $61 million loss to earnings as an expense in the next 12 months contemporaneously with the earnings effects of the related forecasted transactions. In the six mo nths ended June 30, 2018, 2017 a nd 2016 , we recognized insignificant gains and losses related to hedged forecasted transactions and firm commitments that did not occur by the end of the originally specified period. At June 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the maximum term of derivative instruments that hedge forecasted transactions was 14 years , 15 years and 16 years , respectively. For cash flow hedges, the amount of ineffectiveness in the hedging relationship and amount of the changes in fair value of the derivatives that are not included in the measurement of ineffectiveness were insignificant for each reporting period. COUNTERPARTY CREDIT RISK Fair values of our derivatives can change significantly from period to period based on, among other factors, market movements and changes in our positions. We manage counterparty credit risk (the risk that counterparties will default and not make payments to us according to the terms of our agreements) on an individual counterparty basis. Where we have agreed to netting of derivative exposures with a counterparty, we net our exposures with that counterparty and apply the value of collateral posted to us to determine the exposure. We actively monitor these net exposures against defined limits and take appropriate actions in response, including requiring additional collateral. As discussed above, we have provisions in certain of our master agreements that require counterparties to post collateral (typically, cash or U.S. Treasury securities) when our receivables due from the counterparties, measured at current market value, exceeds specified limits. The fair value of such collateral was $1,057 million at June 30, 2018 , of which $955 million was cash and $102 million was in the form of securities held by a custodian for our benefit. Under certain of these same agreements, we post collateral to our counterparties for our derivative obligations, the fair value of cash collateral posted was $763 million at June 30, 2018 . At June 30, 2018 , our exposures to counterparties (including accrued interest), net of collateral we hold, was $358 million . This excludes exposures related to embedded derivatives. Additionally, our master agreements typically contain mutual downgrade provisions that provide the ability of each party to require termination if the long-term credit rating of the counterparty were to fall below A-/A3 or other ratings levels agreed upon with the counterparty. In certain of these master agreements, each party also has the ability to require termination if the short-term rating of the counterparty were to fall below A-1/P-1. Our master agreements also typically contain provisions that provide termination rights upon the occurrence of certain other events, such as a bankruptcy or events of default by one of the parties. If an agreement was terminated under any of these circumstances, the termination amount payable would be determined on a net basis and could also take into account any collateral posted. The net amount of our derivative liability, after consideration of collateral posted by us and outstanding interest payments was $463 million at June 30, 2018 . This excludes exposure related to embedded derivatives. |

Variable Interest Entities [Abstract] | |
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES | NOTE 18. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES A VIE is an entity that has one of three characteristics: (1) it is controlled by someone other than its shareowners or partners, (2) its shareowners or partners are not economically exposed to the entity's earnings (for example, they are protected against losses), or (3) it was thinly capitalized when it was formed. In the normal course of business we become involved with VIEs either because we help create them or we invest in them. Our VIEs either provide goods and services to customers or provide financing to third parties for the purchase of GE goods and services. If we control the VIE, we consolidate it and provide disclosure below. However, if the VIE is a business and use of its assets is not limited to settling its liabilities, ongoing disclosures are not required. CONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES Our most significant consolidated VIEs are four joint ventures used to complete acquisitions. The newest of these, BHGE LLC was formed as part of the Baker Hughes transaction. BHGE LLC owns the operating assets of GE Oil & Gas and Baker Hughes. BHGE LLC is a VIE as we hold an economic interest of approximately 62.5% in the partnership, but we hold no voting or participating rights through our direct economic ownership. BHGE LLC is a SEC Registrant with separate filing requirements with the SEC and its separate financial information can be obtained from www.sec.gov. The remaining three joint ventures were formed as part of the Alstom acquisition. These joint ventures include grid technology, renewable energy, and global nuclear and French steam power and have combined assets, liabilities and redeemable non-controlling interest as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 of $15,200 million , $9,927 million and $3,019 million and $16,344 million , $11,463 million and $3,065 million , respectively. These joint ventures are considered VIEs because the equity held by Alstom does not participate fully in the earnings of the ventures due to contractual features allowing Alstom to sell their interests back to GE (see Note 14 for further information). We consolidate these joint ventures because we control all their significant activities. These joint ventures are in all other respects regular businesses and are therefore exempt from ongoing disclosure requirements for consolidated VIEs provided below. The table below provides information about consolidated VIEs that are subject to ongoing disclosure requirements. Substantially all of these entities were created to help our customers finance the purchase of GE goods and services or to purchase GE customer notes receivable arising from sales of GE goods and services. These entities have no features that could expose us to losses that could significantly exceed the difference between the consolidated assets and liabilities. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF CONSOLIDATED VIEs GE Capital (In millions) GE Customer Notes receivables(a) Other(b) Total June 30, 2018 Assets Financing receivables, net $ — $ — $ 1,003 $ 1,003 Current receivables 76 418 — 494 Other assets 524 1,012 1,271 2,807 Total $ 600 $ 1,429 $ 2,274 $ 4,304 Liabilities Borrowings $ 44 $ — $ 1,154 $ 1,198 Non-recourse borrowings — 610 14 624 Other liabilities 257 663 584 1,504 Total $ 301 $ 1,274 $ 1,751 $ 3,326 December 31, 2017 Assets Financing receivables, net $ — $ — $ 792 $ 792 Current receivables 59 570 — 630 Investment securities — — 918 918 Other assets 586 1,182 1,920 3,688 Total $ 646 $ 1,752 $ 3,630 $ 6,028 Liabilities Borrowings $ 39 $ — $ 1,027 $ 1,066 Non-recourse borrowings — 669 16 685 Other liabilities 345 1,021 1,525 2,891 Total $ 384 $ 1,690 $ 2,568 $ 4,642 (a) Two funding vehicles established to purchase customer notes receivable from GE, one of which is partially funded by third-party debt. (b) In January 2018, ownership of the equity shares of Electric Insurance Company ("EIC") were distributed to GE Capital by a bankruptcy trustee. We have previously reported EIC as a VIE because we received a 100% beneficial interest in the assets, liabilities and operations of EIC, related to an interim distribution in 2001. As EIC is now a consolidated voting interest entity we removed EIC from our VIE disclosure. In 2017, $1,470 million of assets and $959 million of liabilities were included related to EIC. Total revenues from our consolidated VIEs were $164 million and $256 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and $338 million and $508 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Related expenses consisted primarily of cost of goods and services of $60 million and $83 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and $133 million and $178 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Where we provide servicing for third-party investors, we are contractually permitted to commingle cash collected from customers on financing receivables sold to third-party investors with our own cash prior to payment to third-party investors, provided our short-term credit rating does not fall below A-1/P1. These third-party investors also owe us amounts for purchased financial assets and scheduled interest and principal payments. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the amounts of commingled cash owed to the third-party investors were $ 23 million and $ 61 million, respectively. UNCONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES We become involved with unconsolidated VIEs primarily through assisting in the formation and financing of the entity. We do not consolidate these entities because we do not have power over decisions that significantly affect their economic performance. Our investments in unconsolidated VIEs, at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $4,987 million and $5,833 million , respectively. Substantially all of these investments are held by Energy Financial Services. Obligations to make additional investments in these entities are not significant. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES, PRODUCT WARRANTIES AND OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 19. COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES, PRODUCT WARRANTIES AND OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES COMMITMENTS The GE Capital Aviation Services (GECAS) business in GE Capital has placed multiple-year orders for various Boeing, Airbus and other aircraft manufacturers with list prices approximating $ 35,930 million and secondary orders with airlines for used aircraft of approximately $ 3,171 million at June 30, 2018 . In our Aviation segment, we have committed to provide financing assistance of $ 2,834 million of future customer acquisitions of aircraft equipped with our engines. GUARANTEES Our guarantees are provided in the ordinary course of business. We underwrite these guarantees considering economic, liquidity and credit risk of the counterparty. We believe that the likelihood is remote that any such arrangements could have a significant adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. We record liabilities for guarantees at estimated fair value, generally the amount of the premium received, or if we do not receive a premium, the amount based on appraisal, observed market values or discounted cash flows. Any associated expected recoveries from third parties are recorded as other receivables, not netted against the liabilities. At June 30, 2018 , we were committed under the following guarantee arrangements beyond those provided on behalf of VIEs. See Note 18. Credit Support. We have provided $ 1,731 million of credit support on behalf of certain customers or associated companies, predominantly joint ventures and partnerships, using arrangements such as standby letters of credit and performance guarantees. These arrangements enable these customers and associated companies to execute transactions or obtain desired financing arrangements with third parties. Should the customer or associated company fail to perform under the terms of the transaction or financing arrangement, we would be required to perform on their behalf. Under most such arrangements, our guarantee is secured, usually by the asset being purchased or financed, or possibly by certain other assets of the customer or associated company. The length of these credit support arrangements parallels the length of the related financing arrangements or transactions. The liability for such credit support was $ 77 million at June 30, 2018 . Indemnification Agreements – Continuing Operations. We have agreements that require us to fund up to $ 230 million at June 30, 2018 under residual value guarantees on a variety of leased equipment. Under most of our residual value guarantees, our commitment is secured by the leased asset. The liability for these indemnification agreements was $ 6 million at June 30, 2018 . At June 30, 2018 , we also had $ 2,006 million of other indemnification commitments, substantially all of which relate to representations and warranties in sales of businesses or assets. The liability for these indemnification commitments was $ 259 million at June 30, 2018 . Indemnification Agreements – Discontinued Operations. At June 30, 2018 , we provided specific indemnifications to buyers of GE Capital’s assets that, in the aggregate, represent substantially all of the maximum potential claim of $ 2,599 million . The majority of these indemnifications relate to the sale of businesses and assets under the GE Capital Exit Plan. We have recorded related liabilities of $ 333 million , which incorporates our evaluation of risk and the likelihood of making payments under the indemnities. The recognized liabilities represent the estimated fair value of the indemnities when issued as adjusted for any subsequent probable and estimable losses. In addition, in connection with the 2015 public offering and sale of Synchrony Financial, GE Capital indemnified Synchrony Financial and its directors, officers, and employees against the liabilities of GECC's businesses other than historical liabilities of the businesses that are part of Synchrony Financial's ongoing operations. Contingent Consideration. These are agreements to provide additional consideration to a buyer or seller in a business combination if contractually specified conditions related to the acquisition or disposition are achieved. Amount of contingent consideration was insignificant at June 30, 2018 . PRODUCT WARRANTIES We provide for estimated product warranty expenses when we sell the related products. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information – mostly historical claims experience – claims costs may differ from amounts provided.

OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES LEGAL MATTERS WMC. During the fourth quarter of 2007, we completed the sale of WMC, our U.S. mortgage business. WMC substantially discontinued all new loan originations by the second quarter of 2007, and was never a loan servicer. In connection with the sale, WMC retained certain representation and warranty obligations related to loans sold to third parties prior to the disposal of the business and contractual obligations to repurchase previously sold loans that had an early payment default. All claims received by WMC for early payment default have either been resolved or are no longer being pursued. The remaining active claims have been brought by securitization trustees or administrators seeking recovery from WMC for alleged breaches of representations and warranties on mortgage loans that serve as collateral for residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS). At June 30, 2018, such claims consisted of $307 million of individual claims generally submitted before the filing of a lawsuit (compared to $462 million at December 31, 2017) and $875 million of additional claims asserted against WMC in litigation without making a prior claim (Litigation Claims) (compared to $3,198 million at December 31, 2017). The total amount of these claims, $1,182 million , reflects the purchase price or unpaid principal balances of the loans at the time of purchase and does not give effect to pay downs or potential recoveries based upon the underlying collateral, which in many cases are substantial, nor to accrued interest or fees. WMC believes that repurchase claims brought based upon representations and warranties made more than six years before WMC was notified of the claim would be disallowed in legal proceedings under applicable law and the June 11, 2015 decision of the New York Court of Appeals in ACE Securities Corp. v. DB Structured Products, Inc., on the statute of limitations period governing such claims. Reserves related to repurchase claims made against WMC were $294 million at June 30, 2018, reflecting a net decrease to reserves in the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $122 million due to settlements. The reserve estimate takes into account recent settlement activity and is based upon WMC’s evaluation of the remaining exposures as a percentage of estimated lifetime mortgage loan losses within the pool of loans supporting each securitization for which timely claims have been asserted in litigation against WMC. Settlements in prior periods reduced WMC’s exposure on claims asserted in certain securitizations and the claim amounts reported above give effect to these settlements. During the first quarter of 2018, we also recorded a reserve of $1,500 million in connection with the U.S. Department of Justice's (DOJ) ongoing investigation regarding potential violations of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) by WMC and GE Capital discussed in Legal Proceedings. This charge was recorded in the first quarter based upon our estimate of the loss contingency at that time, including the status of our settlement discussions with the DOJ in the first quarter and an assessment of prior settlements reached in similar matters. There were no changes to this estimate in the second quarter of 2018. ROLLFORWARD OF THE RESERVE RELATED TO REPURCHASE CLAIMS Three months ended June 30 Six months ended June 30 (In millions) 2018 2017 2018 2017 Balance, beginning of period $ 342 $ 626 $ 416 $ 626 Provision 5 10 5 10 Claim resolutions / rescissions (53 ) — (127 ) — Balance, end of period $ 294 $ 636 $ 294 $ 636 Given the significant litigation activity and WMC’s continuing efforts to resolve the lawsuits involving claims made against WMC, it is difficult to assess whether future losses will be consistent with WMC’s past experience. Adverse changes to WMC’s assumptions supporting the reserve may result in an increase to these reserves. WMC estimates a range of reasonably possible loss from $0 to approximately $500 million over its recorded reserve at June 30, 2018. This estimate involves significant judgment and may not reflect the range of uncertainties and unpredictable outcomes inherent in litigation, including the matters discussed in Legal Proceedings and potential changes in WMC’s legal strategy. This estimated range of reasonably possible loss excludes any possible loss associated with an adverse court decision on the applicable statute of limitations, as well as any additional loss beyond the amount of our current reserve for the FIRREA investigation, as we are unable at this time to develop such a meaningful estimate. With respect to the FIRREA investigation, this inability to develop a meaningful estimate of any additional loss beyond the amount of our current reserve reflects, among other factors, the wide variety and broad range of penalties and other sanctions incurred by various financial institutions in proceedings and settlements involving claims made under FIRREA by the DOJ, and the possibility WMC will file for bankruptcy in the event of a finding of liability in the TMI case discussed in Legal Proceedings. In the event of a WMC bankruptcy, GE Capital would be required to reassess its WMC consolidation analysis depending upon the specific facts and circumstances at that time, which might result in GE Capital no longer consolidating WMC’s assets and liabilities in its financial statements. In that circumstance, GE and GE Capital at that time would have to assess their direct exposure, if any, for purposes of determining their respective WMC-related loss contingencies. It is possible, however, that the ultimate liability of GE Capital and/or WMC could be higher than our current reserve if a negotiated settlement of the FIRREA investigation cannot be reached at a level commensurate with the reserve, or if we face adverse litigation outcomes if a negotiated settlement cannot be reached. Adverse court decisions, including in cases not involving WMC, could result in new claims and lawsuits on additional loans. However, WMC continues to believe that it has defenses to the claims asserted in litigation, including, for example, based on causation and materiality requirements and applicable statutes of limitations. It is not possible to predict the outcome or impact of these defenses and other factors, any of which could materially affect the amount of any loss ultimately incurred by WMC on these claims. WMC has also received indemnification demands, nearly all of which are unspecified, from depositors/underwriters/sponsors of RMBS in connection with lawsuits brought by RMBS investors concerning alleged misrepresentations in the securitization offering documents to which WMC is not a party, or, in two cases, involving mortgage loan repurchase claims made against RMBS sponsors. WMC believes that it has defenses to these demands. To the extent WMC is required to repurchase loans, WMC’s loss also would be affected by several factors, including pay downs, accrued interest and fees, and the value of the underlying collateral. The reserve and estimate of possible loss reflect judgment, based on currently available information, and a number of assumptions, including economic conditions, claim and settlement activity, pending and threatened litigation, court decisions regarding WMC’s legal defenses, indemnification demands, government activity, and other variables in the mortgage industry. Actual losses arising from claims against WMC could exceed these amounts and additional claims and lawsuits could result if actual claim rates, governmental actions, litigation and indemnification activity, adverse court decisions, actual settlement rates or losses WMC incurs on repurchased loans differ from its assumptions. Adverse developments under any of these scenarios, or a finding of liability in the TMI case discussed above, could be in an amount exceeding the total value of WMC's assets and could result in WMC filing for bankruptcy. Alstom legacy matters . On November 2, 2015, we acquired the Thermal, Renewables and Grid businesses from Alstom. Prior to the acquisition, the seller was the subject of two significant cases involving anti-competitive activities and improper payments: (1) in January 2007, Alstom was fined €65 million by the European Commission for participating in a gas insulated switchgear cartel that operated from 1988 to 2004 (that fine was later reduced to €59 million ), and (2) in December 2014, Alstom pled guilty in the United States to multiple violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and paid a criminal penalty of $772 million . As part of GE’s accounting for the acquisition, we established a reserve amounting to $858 million for legal and compliance matters related to the legacy business practices that were the subject of these and related cases in various jurisdictions. At June 30, 2018, this reserve balance was $921 million . The increase is primarily driven by foreign currency movements. Regardless of jurisdiction, the allegations relate to claimed anti-competitive conduct or improper payments in the pre-acquisition period as the source of legal violations and/or damages. Given the significant litigation and compliance activity related to these matters and our ongoing efforts to resolve them, it is difficult to assess whether the disbursements will ultimately be consistent with the reserve established. The estimation of this reserve involved significant judgment and may not reflect the full range of uncertainties and unpredictable outcomes inherent in litigation and investigations of this nature. Damages sought may include disgorgement of profits on the underlying business transactions, fines and/or penalties, interest, or other forms of resolution. Factors that can affect the ultimate amount of losses associated with these matters include the way cooperation is assessed and valued, prosecutorial discretion in the determination of damages, formulas for determining fines and penalties, the duration and amount of legal and investigative resources applied, and political and social influences within each jurisdiction, among other considerations. Actual losses arising from claims in these matters could exceed the amount provided. At this time, we are unable to develop a meaningful estimate of the range of reasonably possible additional losses for this exposure. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Our operations, like operations of other companies engaged in similar businesses, involve the use, disposal and cleanup of substances regulated under environmental protection laws. We are involved in numerous remediation actions to clean up hazardous wastes as required by federal and state laws. Liabilities for remediation costs exclude possible insurance recoveries and, when dates and amounts of such costs are not known, are not discounted. When there appears to be a range of possible costs with equal likelihood, liabilities are based on the low end of such range. It is reasonably possible that our environmental remediation exposure will exceed amounts accrued. However, due to uncertainties about the status of laws, regulations, technology and information related to individual sites, such amounts are not reasonably estimable. For further information, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 . |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
SEGMENT OPERATIONS | SEGMENT OPERATIONS REVENUES AND PROFIT Segment revenues include sales of products and services related to the segment. Segment profit is determined based on internal performance measures used by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to assess the performance of each business in a given period. In connection with that assessment, the CEO may exclude matters, such as charges for restructuring, rationalization and other similar expenses, acquisition costs and other related charges, technology and product development costs, certain gains and losses from acquisitions or dispositions, and litigation settlements or other charges, for which responsibility preceded the current management team. Subsequent to the Baker Hughes transaction, restructuring and other charges are included in the determination of segment profit for our Oil & Gas segment. See the Corporate Items and Eliminations section within this MD&A for additional information about costs excluded from segment profit. Segment profit excludes results reported as discontinued operations and material accounting changes other than those applied retrospectively. Segment profit also excludes the portion of earnings or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of consolidated subsidiaries, and as such only includes the portion of earnings or loss attributable to our share of the consolidated earnings or loss of consolidated subsidiaries. Segment profit excludes or includes interest and other financial charges, non-operating benefit costs, income taxes, and preferred stock dividends according to how a particular segment’s management is measured: • Interest and other financial charges, income taxes, non-operating benefit costs and GE preferred stock dividends are excluded in determining segment profit for the industrial segments. • Interest and other financial charges, income taxes, non-operating benefit costs and GE Capital preferred stock dividends are included in determining segment profit (which we sometimes refer to as “net earnings”) for the Capital segment. Other income is included in segment profit for the industrial segments. Certain corporate costs, such as shared services, employee benefits, and information technology, are allocated to our segments based on usage. A portion of the remaining corporate costs is allocated based on each segment’s relative net cost of operations.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of General Electric Company (the Company) and all companies that we directly or indirectly control, either through majority ownership or otherwise. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 that discusses our consolidation and financial statement presentation. As used in this report on Form 10-Q (Report), “GE” represents the adding together of all affiliated companies except GE Capital (GE Capital or Financial Services), whose continuing operations are presented on a one-line basis; GE Capital consists of GE Capital Global Holdings, LLC (GECGH) and all of its affiliates; and “Consolidated” represents the adding together of GE and GE Capital with the effects of transactions between the two eliminated. |
RECLASSIFICATION | We have reclassified certain prior-period amounts to conform to the current-period presentation. |
ACCOUNTING CHANGES | ACCOUNTING CHANGES On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , and the related amendments (ASC 606), which supersedes most previous U.S. GAAP revenue guidance. We elected to adopt the new standard on a retrospective basis to ensure a consistent basis of presentation within our consolidated financial statements for all periods reported. In addition, we elected the practical expedient for contract modifications, which essentially means that the terms of the contract that existed at the beginning of the earliest period presented can be assumed to have been in place since the inception of the contract (i.e., not practical to separately evaluate the effects of all prior contract modifications). ASC 606 requires companies to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer. As a result of the adoption of the standard, we recorded significant changes in the timing of revenue recognition and in the classification between revenues and costs. The financial statement effect of the adoption was a decrease to our previously reported retained earnings as of January 1, 2016 of $4,240 million and a decrease to our previously reported revenues and earnings (loss) from continuing operations of $2,224 million and $2,668 million , respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2017 and $220 million and $1,182 million , respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2016. The effect on our statement of financial position was principally comprised of changes to our contract assets, inventories, deferred taxes, deferred income and progress collections balances resulting in an $8,317 million decrease to previously reported total assets as of December 31, 2017. As discussed in prior filings, some of the impacts of adopting the ASC 606 are: Long-Term Service Agreements - For our long-term service agreements, we will continue to recognize revenue over time using percentage of completion based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. We will also continue to record cumulative effect adjustments resulting from changes to our estimated contract billings or costs (excluding those resulting from contract modifications as discussed below). Our accounting will be impacted by various changes in the new revenue standard including (1) accounting for contract modifications and their related impacts and (2) changes in the accounting scope and term of our contracts. • Modifications - Under the new revenue standard, contract modifications will generally be accounted for as if we entered into a new contract, resulting in prospective recognition of changes to our estimates of contract billings and costs. That is, cumulative effect adjustments will generally no longer be recognized in the period that modifications occur. There was limited guidance for accounting for contract modifications under prior U.S. GAAP. As a result, our previous method of accounting for contract modifications was developed with the objective of accounting for the nature of the contract modifications. Generally, contract modifications were accounted for as cumulative effect adjustments, which reflected an update to the contract margin for the impact of the modification (i.e., changes to estimates of future contract billings and costs); however, modifications that substantially changed the economics of the arrangement were effectively accounted for as a new contract. • Scope and term - The new revenue standard provides more prescriptive guidance on identifying the elements of long-term service type contracts that should be accounted for as separate performance obligations. Application of this guidance, which focuses on understanding the nature of the arrangement, including our customers' discretion in purchasing decisions, has resulted in changes to the scope of elements included in our accounting model for long-term service agreements. For example, significant equipment upgrades offered as part of our long-term service agreements will generally be accounted for as separate performance obligations under the new revenue standard. Also, the term of our contracts is now defined as the shorter of the stated term or the term not subject to customer termination without substantive penalty. Over this contract term, we estimate our revenues and related costs, including estimates of fixed and variable payments related to asset utilization and related costs to fulfill our performance obligations. Historically, our accounting for long-term contracts did not reflect an expectation that a contract would be terminated prior to the stated term, particularly when the probability of termination was considered remote. Under prior U.S. GAAP, while termination rights were considered, more emphasis was placed on expected outcomes (i.e., use of best estimates). For example, we used historical experience with similar types of contracts as well as other evidence (e.g., customer intent, economic compulsion and future plans for operating the asset) to determine the contract term for application of our accounting model. These changes to our long-term service agreement accounting have significantly impacted all of our industrial businesses except for Renewable Energy, Healthcare, and Lighting and were some of the drivers in the reduction of the related contract asset balance of $8,255 million as of December 31, 2017. While these contract asset balances have been reduced due to the accounting changes, the economics and cash impact of these contracts remain unchanged. Aviation Commercial Engines - For Aviation Commercial engines our previous method applied contract-specific estimated margin rates, which included the effect of estimated cost improvements over time, to costs incurred to determine the amount of revenue that should be recognized. The new revenue standard will result in a significant change from our previous long-term contract accounting model. While we will continue to recognize revenue at delivery, each engine is now accounted for as a separate performance obligation, reflecting the contractually stated price and manufacturing cost of each engine. The most significant effect of this change is on our new engine launches, where the cost of earlier production units is higher than the cost of later production units driven by expected cost improvements over the life of the engine program, which will generally result in lower earnings or increased losses on our early program engine deliveries to our customers. The effect of this change reduced the related contract asset balance of $1,755 million as of December 31, 2017. All Other Large Equipment - For the remainder of our equipment businesses, the new revenue standard’s emphasis on transfer of control rather than risks and rewards has resulted in an accelerated timing of revenue recognition versus our previous accounting for certain products. While this change impacts all our businesses, our Renewable Energy business was most significantly impacted on a year over year basis with certain of their products recognized at an earlier point in time compared to historical standards. Our policy under ASC 605 was to defer recognition until all risk had transferred to the customer, which was generally upon product installation or customer acceptance. For these equipment contracts, the customer has control of the equipment in advance of the related installation or acceptance event based on our evaluation of the indicators provided in ASC 606. Consistent with our industry peers, certain of our businesses’ products have transitioned either to a point in time or over time recognition based on the nature of the arrangement. This change in timing of revenue had an effect on inventory, contract assets and progress collections to reflect the transfer of control at an earlier point in time. Refer to our Form 8-K filed on April 13, 2018 for supplemental information on the effect of the adoption of ASC 606 to our financial statements. On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost . The ASU requires the service cost component of the net periodic costs for pension and postretirement plans to be presented in the same line item in the statement of earnings as other employee-related compensation costs. The non-service related costs are now required to be presented separately from the service cost component. This change to the income statement has been reflected on a retrospective basis and had no effect on continuing or net income. The new standard also added guidance requiring entities to exclude these non-service related costs from capitalization in inventory or other internally-developed assets on a prospective basis, which is not expected to have a significant effect. On January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash . The ASU requires the changes in the total of cash and restricted cash to be presented in the statement of cash flows. In addition, when cash and restricted cash are presented on separate lines on the balance sheet, an entity is required to reconcile the totals in the statement of cash flows to the related line items in the balance sheet. While not a direct effect of the adoption of the standard, to simplify the reconciliation of the statement of cash flows to the cash balances presented in our statement of financial position, we have elected to present cash and restricted cash as a single line on the balance sheet, which resulted in an increase of $668 million and $654 million to our previously reported December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 cash balances, respectively. The change to our cash balances and cash flows has been reflected on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory . The ASU eliminates the deferral of the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers other than inventory and was required to be adopted on a modified retrospective basis. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized as they are eliminated in consolidation. This change to our income tax provision has been reflected as a $464 million cumulative catch up adjustment to increase retained earnings as of January 1, 2018 and is not reflected in periods prior to this date. On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The ASU is required to be reflected on a retrospective basis and provides guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments, including requiring cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs be classified as financing activities and payments from a beneficial interest in securitization transactions be classified as investing activities. As part of the adoption, we will reclassify $553 million of cash receipts from our beneficial interest in securitized trade receivables within our consolidated statement of cash flows from cash inflows from operating activities to cash inflows from investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 (no effect to periods prior to 2017). The adoption of the ASU did not have a significant effect on our GE Industrial cash flows. On January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The ASU provides guidance related to the recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities with changes primarily affecting equity investments and disclosure of financial instruments. Under the new guidance, equity investments with readily determinable fair value, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The adoption had an insignificant impact to retained earnings and other comprehensive income. Effective January 1, 2018, we voluntarily changed the cost method of the GE U.S. inventories that were previously measured on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis to first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. We believe the FIFO method is a preferable measure for our inventories as it is expected to better reflect the current value of inventory reported in the consolidated statement of financial position, improve the matching of costs of goods sold with related revenue, and provide for greater consistency and uniformity across our operations with respect to the method of inventory valuation. While this change will also require us to make a conforming change for U.S. income tax purposes, all existing GE businesses previously using LIFO are expected to be in a deflationary cost environment due to the manufacturing life cycle of the products and continuous reduction in the manufacturing costs due to better efficiencies, which would significantly decrease the tax benefit that LIFO would otherwise provide. Prior to the change and as reported in our 2017 10-K, LIFO was used for approximately 32% of GE inventories as of December 31, 2017. As required by U.S. GAAP, we have reflected this change in accounting principle on a retrospective basis resulting in changes to the historical periods presented. The retrospective application of the change resulted in a decrease to our January 1, 2016 retained earnings of $105 million and a decrease to our net loss from continuing operations by $13 million , $28 million and $124 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, and a decrease to our net earnings from continuing operations by $147 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Estimated Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities | The following table provides information about assets and liabilities not carried at fair value. The table excludes finance leases, equity investments without readily determinable fair value and non-financial assets and liabilities. Substantially all of the assets discussed below are considered to be Level 3. The vast majority of our liabilities’ fair value can be determined based on significant observable inputs and thus considered Level 2. Few of the instruments are actively traded and their fair values must often be determined using financial models. Realization of the fair value of these instruments depends upon market forces beyond our control, including marketplace liquidity.
