Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]  
Schedule of Recent Accounting Standards Updates
The Company has considered the recent ASUs issued by the FASB summarized below, which could significantly impact its financial statements:
Standards Pending Adoption
 
Description
 
Effective Date
 
Anticipated Impact
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers
 
The standard replaces existing revenue recognition guidance and requires additional financial statement disclosures. The provisions of these updates may be applied through either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach.
 
January 1, 2018
 
The Company has drafted its accounting policy with respect to the standard based on a detailed review of its business and contracts. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard, it does not currently expect that the adoption will have a material impact on its revenues, results of operations or financial position. As required by the standard, the Company expects to make additional disclosures related to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company plans to adopt the standard effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method. The Company continues to evaluate the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.
ASU 2016-02, Leases
 
The standard requires that a lessee recognize on its balance sheet right-of-use assets and corresponding liabilities resulting from leasing transactions, as well as additional financial statement disclosures. Currently, GAAP only requires balance sheet recognition for leases classified as capital leases. The provisions of this update apply to substantially all leased assets, with certain permitted exceptions, and must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach.
 
January 1, 2019
 
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this update. For additional information on the Company’s operating lease commitments, see Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies."
ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost
 
The standard was issued to address the net presentation of the components of net benefit cost. The standard requires that service cost be presented in the same line item as other current employee compensation costs and that the remaining components of net benefit cost be presented in a separate line item outside of any subtotal for income from operations.
 
January 1, 2018
 
The update will result in the retrospective reclassification of the non-service cost components of net benefit cost from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses to other (income) expense, net. There will be no impact on consolidated net income.
In addition to the adoption of ASU 2016-09, "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting," discussed in Note 7, "Income Taxes," the Company adopted the ASUs summarized below in 2017. The effects of the adoption of the ASUs listed below did not significantly impact the Company's financial statements:
Standards Adopted
 
Description
 
Effective Date
ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory

January 1, 2017

January 1, 2017
ASU 2016-07, Simplifying the Transition to Equity Method of Accounting

ASU 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities

January 1, 2019
ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
 
The standard changes the impairment model for most financial instruments to an "expected loss" model. The new model will generally result in earlier recognition of credit losses.
 
January 1, 2020
ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
 
The standard simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments and allows a goodwill impairment charge to be based on the amount of a reporting unit's carrying value in excess of its fair value. This eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill or what is known as "Step 2" under the current guidance.
