15. Foreign Currency Translation

The accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity of $23,682 and $36,387 at December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2012, respectively, includes the cumulative foreign currency adjustments of $(11,325) and $(27,229), respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries, and also includes the change in fair values of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements that are designated as hedges and the change in fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities.

All foreign countries where the Company has operations are non-highly inflationary and the local currency is the same as the functional currency in all of the locations. Thus, any fluctuation in the currency results in a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Below is a summary of the impact of translating the September 30, 2012 financial statements of certain of the Company’s international subsidiaries:
