Accounting Policies |
A. | In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly its financial position as at September 30, 2013 and the results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012 was derived from audited financial statements.
Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements. In the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, assets and liabilities related to the 2013 discontinued operations have been separately presented at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The results of operations related to the 2013 discontinued operations have been separately stated in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. In the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, cash flows from discontinued operations are not separately classified. Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Company identified an error related to the classification of cash and cash investments. Foreign short-term bank deposits with terms ranging from three months to twelve months were incorrectly classified as cash and cash investments rather than short-term bank deposits. The statement of cash flows as of September 30, 2012 and the balance sheet at December 31, 2012 have been revised. Other historic periods will be revised, as detailed below, in our future filings. These classification errors were not considered material to any prior period financial statements. The following table presents the impact of the revisions on the Company’s previously issued consolidated balance sheets (in millions).

Cash and cash investments |  | $ | 1,351 |  |  | $ | 1,040 |
