New Accounting Standards |
New Accounting Standards | Note 2. New accounting standards From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”). In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans - General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plan.” ASU 2018-14 amends ASC 715 to add, remove, and modify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The ASU’s changes to disclosures aim to improve the effectiveness of ASC 715’s disclosure requirements under the FASB’s disclosure framework project. ASU 2018-14 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 (fiscal year 2022 for Woodward). ASU 2018-14 does not impact the interim disclosure requirements of ASC 715. The amendments in ASU 2018-14 should be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. Woodward expects to adopt the new and modified disclosures requirements of this new guidance in fiscal year 2022. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2018-02 allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the enactment of tax reform under H.R.1, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Titles II and V of the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2018” (the “Tax Act”) (also known as “The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”), and provides guidance on the disclosure requirements regarding the stranded tax effects. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal year 2020 for Woodward), and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 may be applied retrospectively in the period of adoption to all periods in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Act is recognized or may be applied as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Woodward is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of the new guidance and has not yet elected the method of adoption it will apply. Woodward expects to adopt the new guidance under ASU 2018-02 in fiscal year 2020. Upon adoption, if Woodward elects to reclassify under ASU 2018-02, a portion of accumulated other comprehensive earnings would be reclassified to retained earnings. In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.” ASU 2017-07 requires that the service cost component of net periodic benefit costs from defined benefit and other postretirement benefit plans be included in the same statement of earnings captions as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the covered employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are presented in the statement of earnings separately from service costs. ASU 2017-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017 (fiscal year 2019 for Woodward). Following adoption, only service costs will be eligible for capitalization into manufactured inventories, which should reduce diversity in practice. The amendments of ASU 2017-07 must be applied retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net periodic benefit costs from defined benefit and other postretirement benefit plans in the statement of earnings and prospectively, on and after the effective date, for the capitalization of the service cost component into manufactured inventories. Woodward adopted the new guidance effective October 1, 2018 and concluded it had no impact on net earnings. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2017-07, only the service component of net periodic benefit costs from defined benefit and other postretirement benefit plans are included in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. All other net periodic benefit costs, other than interest cost, are included in other expense (income), net. The interest cost component of net periodic benefit costs is included in interest expense as Woodward believes it is more similar to the elements within interest expense than other expense (income), net, which combines several elements that are heterogeneous (see Note 17, Other (income) expense, net.), thus improving consistency for users of the financial statements. The following table shows the impact of retrospectively applying this guidance to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the three and six-months ended March 31, 2018. ﻿

﻿ ﻿ ﻿ In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory.” ASU 2016-16 eliminates the current U.S. GAAP exception deferring the tax effects of intercompany asset transfers (other than inventory) until the transferred asset is sold to a third party or otherwise recovered through use. After adoption of ASU 2016-16, Woodward will recognize the tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers in the buyer’s and seller’s tax jurisdictions when the transfer occurs, even though the pre-tax effects of these transactions are eliminated in consolidation. ASU 2016-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 (fiscal year 2019 for Woodward), including interim periods within the year of adoption. Woodward adopted the new guidance on October 1, 2018. Modified retrospective adoption is required with any cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The cumulative impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-16 of $1,005 was recognized at the date of adoption as a decrease to both retained earnings and other current assets at the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 adds a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model to U.S. GAAP that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Modified retrospective adoption is required with any cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 (fiscal year 2021 for Woodward), including interim periods within the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal year 2020 for Woodward), including interim periods within those fiscal years. Woodward expects to adopt the new guidance in fiscal year 2021. Woodward does not expect the application of the CECL impairment model to have a significant impact on Woodward’s allowance for uncollectible amounts for accounts receivable and notes receivable from municipalities. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The purpose of ASU 2016-02 is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities except for short-term leases on the balance sheet, and provide additional disclosure information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 modifies the definition of a lease to clarify that an arrangement contains a lease when such arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (fiscal year 2020 for Woodward), including interim periods within the year of adoption. Woodward will adopt the new guidance on October 1, 2019, the first day of fiscal year 2020. Originally under ASU 2016-02, an organization was required upon adoption to recognize and measure leases beginning in the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach and restate the financial statements for all periods presented. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements,” which amends ASU 2016-02 to provide organizations with a new (and optional) transition method permitting the recognition of a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings on the date of adoption, rather than requiring retrospective restatement of prior periods. Woodward expects to elect the new transition method resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings on October 1, 2019. Woodward is currently assessing the impact this guidance may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including which of its existing lease arrangements will be impacted by the new guidance. In anticipation of adopting ASU 2016-02 on October 1, 2019, Woodward has developed a comprehensive project plan and established a cross-functional global project team. The project plan includes reviewing various forms of leases, analyzing the optional practical expedients available in ASC 2016-02, and updating Woodward’s business processes and controls to meet the requirements of ASU 2016-02, as necessary. Woodward expects the most significant effects of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will be the recognition of operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheets and changes to the accounting for the Company’s loss reserve on contractual lease commitments. Rent expense for all operating leases in fiscal year 2018, none of which was recognized on the balance sheet, was $8,348. As of September 30, 2018, future minimum rental payments required under operating leases, none of which were recognized on the balance sheet, were $26,020.
