Significant Accounting Policies |
Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement |
Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement As of March 31, 2012, we had sold accounts receivable of $58.1 million and recorded a retained beneficial interest of $8.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the fees and interest paid under a receivables purchase agreement were not significant.
Goodwill |
Goodwill During the three months ended March 31, 2012, based on our ongoing fair value assessment of certain of our 2011 acquisitions, we reclassified $2.9 million in goodwill from our aviation segment to our land segment and increased aviation segment goodwill by $1.8 million as a result of the reclassification of $1.1 million from identifiable intangible assets and a $0.7 million purchase price adjustment. We had an additional goodwill increase of $0.2 million as a result of foreign currency translation adjustments of our Brazilian subsidiary in our marine segment.
Extinguishment of Liability |
Extinguishment of Liability In the normal course of business, we accrue liabilities for fuel and services received for which invoices have not yet been received. These liabilities are derecognized, or extinguished, if either (i) payment is made to relieve our obligation for the liability or (ii) we are legally released from our obligation for the liability, such as when our legal obligations with respect to such liabilities lapse or otherwise no longer exist. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we derecognized vendor liability accruals in the amount of $3.5 million, as compared to $0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011, which is reflected as a reduction of cost of revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
