Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
General | Basis of Presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ASGN Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("ASGN" or the "Company"). The results of operations for acquired companies are included in the consolidated results of the Company from the date of acquisition (see Note 6. Acquisitions). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. In addition, retrospective reclassifications have been made to prior period consolidated financial statements and disclosures to present the Oxford Global Resources business unit (the "Oxford business") as discontinued operations (see Note 4. Discontinued Operations). Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures included herein relate to our continuing operations. Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Those estimates determined to be most critical to the preparation of the financial statements are discussed below in Note 2. Summary of Critical and Significant Accounting Policies — Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
