Note 8.     Deferred Finance Costs

 

On December 14, 2011, we entered into a new five-year revolving credit facility and $1.7 million of refinancing costs were capitalized. These are being amortized over the expected life of the revolving credit facility using the effective interest method. Deferred finance costs associated with the previous finance facility became fully amortized in the third quarter of 2011.
