Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] |
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS | NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Adopted In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance on the presentation in the financial statements of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance takes into account these losses and carryforwards as well as the intended or likelihood of use of the unrecognized tax benefit in determining the balance sheet classification as an asset or liability. This guidance was effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2014 and did not have a material impact. Issued In April 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of debt issuance costs. The guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This standard is effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2016. The guidance is not expected to have a material effect under our current debt structure. In April 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement. The amendments in this update provide guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license and accounting for the arrangement as capitalized and amortized as an intangible asset or expensed as incurred as a service contract. This standard is effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2016. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
