New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] |
New accounting standards | New accounting standards Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity In April 2014, the FASB issued guidance related to the definition and reporting of discontinued operations. The guidance changed the definition of discontinued operations to include only disposals of a component or group of components that represent a strategic shift and that have a major effect on an entity's operations or financial results. The guidance also expands the disclosure requirements for transactions that meet the definition of a discontinued operation, and also requires entities to disclose information about individually significant components that are disposed of or held for sale that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2015, and is to be applied prospectively for all disposals or components initially classified as held for sale after the effective date, with early adoption permitted. The adoption required additional disclosures for the Company's discontinued operations, however it did not impact the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance provides for a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry specific guidance. This guidance was to be effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. In July 2015, the FASB approved a decision to defer the effective date one year and allow entities to early adopt. With this decision, the guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. Entities will have the option of using either a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach to adopting the guidance. Under the modified approach, an entity would recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance with an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. In addition, the modified approach will require additional disclosures. The Company is evaluating the effects the adoption of the new revenue guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position, cash flows and disclosures, as well as its method of adoption. Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance on simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs in the financial statements. This guidance requires entities to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction to the related debt liability. The amortization of these costs will be reported as interest expense. The guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2016, and is to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption of this guidance is permitted, however the Company has not elected to do so. The guidance will require a reclassification of the debt issuance costs on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, but will not impact the Company's results of operations or cash flows. Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or its Equivalent) In May 2015, the FASB issued guidance on fair value measurement and disclosure requirements removing the requirement to include investments in the fair value hierarchy for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient. The new guidance also removes the requirement to make certain disclosures for all investments that are eligible to be measured at net asset value using the practical expedient, and rather limits those disclosures to investments for which the practical expedient has been elected. This guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effects the adoption of the new guidance will have on its disclosures, however it will not impact the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance regarding inventory that is measured using the first-in, first-out or average cost method. The guidance does not apply to inventory measured using the last-in, first-out or the retail inventory method. The guidance requires inventory within its scope to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, which is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. These amendments more closely align GAAP with International Financial Reporting Standards. This guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2017, and should be applied prospectively with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is evaluating the effects the adoption of the new guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
