New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] |
New Accounting Pronouncements | NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS: Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements In July 2015, the FASB issued an update that requires inventory to be measured at the lower of either cost or net realizable value. When evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is lower than its cost, the difference will be recognized as a loss in earnings in the period in which it occurs. Quanta adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2017, and the adoption of the update did not have a significant impact on Quanta’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued an update that amends the accounting for share-based payments in several key areas, including the treatment and cash flow presentation of tax effects related to the settlement of share-based payments and the accounting for forfeitures of share-based awards. The new guidance requires companies with share-based payments to record all tax effects related thereto at settlement (or expiration) through income tax expense on the statement of operations rather than through additional paid-in capital (APIC) within equity. This update also requires excess tax benefits to be classified as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows rather than reclassified as a financing activity and requires cash paid by an employer when withholding shares for the employee portion of taxes to be presented as a financing activity. The update also allows companies to either account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur or to estimate forfeitures. This guidance is required to be applied prospectively except for the classification of cash related to tax withholding, which requires retrospective application. Quanta adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2017 and will continue to estimate forfeitures of share-based payments. Quanta anticipates increased volatility of income tax expense after adoption of this guidance, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 recorded income tax benefits of $0.1 million and $5.0 million related to the settlement of share-based awards. APIC was not adjusted for amounts recorded prior to 2017, and therefore Quanta’s retained earnings were not affected by the adoption of this guidance. Additionally, $1.2 million and $7.2 million were reclassified from operating activities to financing activities on the statements of cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 associated with cash paid by Quanta to satisfy tax withholding obligations for share-settled awards. Further, the presentation of excess tax benefits on the statements of cash flows is now shown as cash flows from operating activities rather than in financing activities. The excess tax benefits reclassified to operating activities for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were $0.1 million. In October 2016, the FASB issued an update that amends the consolidation guidance related to how a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a VIE should treat indirect interests in the VIE held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. A reporting entity has an indirect interest in a VIE if it has a direct interest in a related party that, in turn, has a direct interest in the VIE. Quanta adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017, and the adoption of the update did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued an update that supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, as well as some cost recognition guidance. The update requires that the recognition of revenue related to the transfer of goods or services to customers reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This update also requires new qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, information about contract balances and performance obligations, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In July 2015, the FASB affirmed its proposal to defer the effective date until fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2017. The guidance can be applied on a full retrospective or modified retrospective basis whereby the entity records a cumulative effect of initially applying this update at the date of initial application. Quanta is currently evaluating the potential impact of this update on its consolidated financial statements and anticipates adopting the update using the modified retrospective transition method, which may result in a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded in retained earnings. While Quanta is still evaluating the requirements of this update, it currently does not expect the update to materially affect its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. This preliminary conclusion is based on Quanta’s belief that it will generally continue to recognize revenues from long-term service contracts over time as services are performed and the underlying obligation to the customer is fulfilled. Quanta has identified and is in the process of implementing changes to its processes and internal controls to meet the reporting and disclosure requirements of this update and will adopt this update effective January 1, 2018. In January 2016, the FASB issued an update that addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Quanta is evaluating the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt the new standard by January 1, 2018. In February 2016, the FASB issued an update that requires companies to recognize on the balance sheet the contractual right to use assets and liabilities corresponding to the rights and obligations created by lease contracts. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. While Quanta continues to evaluate the effect of the standard on its consolidated financial statements, it is anticipated that the adoption of the standard will materially impact its statement of financial position. In June 2016, the FASB issued an update that will change the way companies measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The update will require companies to use an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost and to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amounts. The update will also require disclosure of information regarding how a company developed its allowance, including changes in the factors that influenced management’s estimate of expected credit losses and the reasons for those changes. Companies will apply this standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Quanta is currently evaluating the potential impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance by January 1, 2020. In August 2016, the FASB issued an update intended to standardize the classification of certain transactions on the statement of cash flows. These transactions include contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies and distributions received from equity method investments. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and requires application using a retrospective transition method. Quanta is currently evaluating the potential impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance by January 1, 2018. In October 2016, the FASB issued an update that will require a reporting entity to recognize the tax expense from the sale of an asset in the seller’s tax jurisdiction when the transfer occurs, even though the pre-tax effects of that transaction are eliminated in consolidation. Any deferred tax asset that arises in the buyer’s jurisdiction would also be recognized at the time of the transfer. The new guidance will not apply to intra-entity transfers of inventory. The income tax consequences from the sale of inventory from one member of a consolidated entity to another will continue to be deferred until the inventory is sold to a third party. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The modified retrospective method will be required for transition to the new guidance, with a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded in retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Quanta is currently evaluating the potential impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance by January 1, 2018. In November 2016, the FASB issued an update intended to standardize the classification of restricted cash and cash equivalents transactions on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The retrospective transition method will be required for this new guidance. Quanta is currently evaluating the potential impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance by January 1, 2018. In January 2017, the FASB issued an update intended to clarify whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. When substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired or disposed of is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the asset or group is not a business. The update will require, among other things, that to be considered a business, a set of assets and activities must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output. Additionally, the update will remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements in order to consider the set of assets and activities a business, will provide more stringent criteria for sets without outputs and will narrow the definition of output. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and the prospective transition method will be required for this new guidance. Quanta is currently evaluating the potential impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance by January 1, 2018. Also in January 2017, the FASB issued an update intended to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating the second step in the current two-step goodwill impairment test. The update will require an entity to perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity will recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if applicable. Additionally, the update will eliminate the requirement that a reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount perform a qualitative assessment and the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test and will instead require disclosure of the amount of goodwill allocated to each reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount of net assets. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The prospective transition method will be required for this new guidance. Quanta is currently evaluating the potential impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt this guidance by January 1, 2020. In May 2017, the FASB issued an update providing guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. A modification should be accounted for unless the following characteristics of the award are unchanged: the fair value, the vesting conditions and the classification as an equity instrument or a liability instrument. The update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is required to be applied prospectively. Quanta is evaluating the impact of the new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt the new standard by January 1, 2018.
