Restructuring, Acquisition, And Other [Abstract] |
RESTRUCTURING, ACQUISITION AND OTHER | RESTRUCTURING, ACQUISITION AND OTHER ACCOUNTING POLICY We define restructuring costs as employee costs associated with the targeted restructuring of our employee base, or other costs associated with significant changes in either the scope of business activities or the manner in which business is conducted. Acquisition and integration costs are directly attributable to investigating or completing an acquisition or to integrating an acquired business. Other costs are costs that, in management's judgment about their nature, should be segregated from ongoing operating expenses. JUDGMENTS We make significant judgments in determining the appropriate classification of costs to be included in "restructuring, acquisition and other". RESTRUCTURING, ACQUISITION AND OTHER COSTS
