NOTE 9. New Pronouncements

In July 2012, the FASB issued an update to Topic 350 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other of the Accounting Standards Codification. The objective of this update is to simplify how entities test indefinite lived intangibles for impairment. The amendments in the update permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative test described in Topic 350. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2013 as required, and the adoption did not impact our consolidated financial statements.
