New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] |
Recent Accounting Guidance | NOTE 2: RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE New accounting rules and disclosure requirements can significantly impact our reported results and the comparabilit y of our financial statements. In the second quarter of 2016, we chose to early adopt the authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) requiring acquirers in a business combination to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period that the adjustment amounts are determined and eliminates the requirement to retrospectively account for these adjustments. It also requires additional disclosure about the effects of the adjustments on prior periods. Adoption of this guidance had no impact on our financial reporting. See Note 3 for further discussion regarding our recent business acquisitions. On May 28, 2014, the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board issued a new accounting standard that will supersede virtually all existing revenue recognition guidance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (and International Financial Reporting Standards) which has been subsequently updated to defer the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard by one year. This standard will be effective for us beginning in fiscal 2019. The fundamental principles of the new guidance are that companies should recognize revenue in a manner that reflects the timing of the transfer of services to customers and the amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that a company expects to receive for the goods and services provided. The new guidance establishes a five-step approach for the recognition of revenue. Based on our preliminary assessment, we do not anticipate that the new guidance will have a material impact on our revenue recognition policies, practices or systems. On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued the new lease accounting standard which requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize the expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current practice. The new standard states that a lessee will recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. Expense related to leases determined to be operating leases will be recognized on a straight-line basis, while those determined to be financing leases will be recognized following a front-loaded expense profile in which interest and amortization are presented separately in the income statement. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on our financial reporting, but recognizing the lease liability and related right-of-use asset will significantly impact our balance sheet. These changes will be effective for our fiscal year beginning June 1, 2019 (fiscal 2020), with a modified retrospective adoption method to the beginning of 2018. On November 20, 2015, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update that will require companies to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent on the balance sheet instead of separating deferred taxes into current and noncurrent amounts. This new guidance ha d minimal impact on our accounting and financial reporting, and we chose to early adopt on a retrospective basis in the fourth quarter of 2016. In May 2015, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update that removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy investments for which fair values are estimated using the net asset value practical expedient provided by Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance is effective for entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, with retrospective application to all periods presented. We elected to early adopt this standard, which impacted our fair value disclosures related to retirement benefit plan investments in Note 1 3 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements but did not otherwise impact our financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions. The new guidance requires companies to recognize the income tax effects of awards that vest or are settled as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement as opposed to additional paid-in capital as is current practice. The guidance also provides clarification of the presentation of certain components of share-based awards in the statement of cash flows. Additionally, the guidance allows companies to make a policy election to account for forfeitures either upon occurrence or by estimating forfeitures. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on our financial reporting. These changes will be effective for our fiscal year beginning June 1, 2017 (fiscal 2018). We believe that no other new accounting guidance was adopted or issued during 201 6 that is relevant to the readers of our financial statements.
