Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies As of March 31, 2014, the Company's significant accounting policies, which are detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, have not changed materially other than the policies described below. Real estate Capitalization—For real estate projects, the Company begins to capitalize qualified development and construction costs, including interest, real estate taxes, compensation and certain other carrying costs incurred which are specifically identifiable to a development project once activities necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use have commenced. If specific allocation of costs is not practicable, the Company will allocate costs based on relative fair value prior to construction or relative sales value, relative size or other value methods as appropriate during construction. The Company ceases capitalization on the portions substantially completed and ready for their intended use. Dispositions—Revenues from sales of land are recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360-20, Real Estate Sales. Sales of land are recognized for full profit recognition upon closing of the sale transactions, when the profit is determinable, the earnings process is virtually complete, the parties are bound by the terms of the contract, all consideration has been exchanged, any permanent financing for which the seller is responsible has been arranged and all conditions for closing have been performed. Revenues from sales of land are included in "Land sales revenue" and costs of land sales are included in "Land cost of sales" on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. New Accounting Pronouncements In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" ("ASU 2014-08"). This guidance requires disposals of a component of an entity or group of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results to be reported as discontinued operations. Assets and liabilities of a disposal group that includes a discontinued operation must be presented separately in asset and liability sections, respectively, of the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets for each comparative period. Expanded disclosures about the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of discontinued operations are also required. For individually significant disposals that do not qualify as discontinued operations, disclosure of pre-tax income is required. ASU 2014-08 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in previously-issued financial statements. The Company has elected to early adopt ASU 2014-08 beginning with disposals and classifications of assets as held for sale that occurred after December 31, 2013.
