Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] |
Investments in Affiliated Companies [Text Block] | Investments in Affiliated Companies The company owns a 50% interest in two joint ventures with Marubun Corporation (collectively “Marubun/Arrow”) and a 50% interest in one other joint venture. These investments are accounted for using the equity method. One investment previously accounted for under the equity method no longer qualifies for equity method accounting as a result of the company's ownership percentage decreasing in 2019 as well as the company relinquishing its board representation. This investment will now be accounted for as an equity investment measured at cost, less any impairment, adjusted for changes resulting from observable price changes. Changes in the carrying value of this investment will be recorded in “Gain (loss) on investments, net” in the company’s consolidated statements of operations. The following table presents the company's investment in the following joint ventures at December 31:
|  | 2019 |  | 2018
Marubun/Arrow |  | $ | 76,574 |  |  | $ | 73,253 |
Other |  | 10,368 |  |  | 10,440 |
|  | $ | 86,942 |  |  | $ | 83,693 |
The equity in earnings (losses) of affiliated companies for the years ended December 31 consists of the following:
|  | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
Marubun/Arrow |  | $ | 3,066 |  |  | $ | 5,543 |  |  | $ | 6,842 |
Other |  | (5,831 | ) |  | (7,875 | ) |  | (3,418 | )
|  | $ | (2,765 | ) |  | $ | (2,332 | ) |  | $ | 3,424 |
Under the terms of various joint venture agreements, the company is required to pay its pro-rata share of the third party debt of the joint ventures in the event that the joint ventures are unable to meet their obligations. At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the company's pro-rata share of this debt was approximately $1,700 and $2,860, respectively. The company believes there is sufficient equity in each of the joint ventures to meet the obligations.
