DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract] |
Revenue Recognition, Sales of Goods [Policy Text Block] | Sales Sales and revenues are presented net of sales taxes and other related taxes.
Fair value of financial instruments | Fair value of financial instruments The Company records all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, and other accruals at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short term or stated rates. Investments in marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value. The 6.875% senior secured notes due 2020 (senior secured notes due 2020) and 5.625% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2017 (convertible notes) are carried at cost of $400.0 million and $60.2 million at September 30, 2015, respectively. The fair value of the senior secured notes due 2020 at September 30, 2015, as obtained through an independent pricing source, was approximately $358.0 million.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of estimates The policies utilized by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and require management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amount 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. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates and assumptions.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Issued Accounting Standards In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This update amends existing guidance to require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No 2015-11, "Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." This update provides that an entity should measure inventory with the scope of the update at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Comparability of Prior Year Financial Data, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Reclassification Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Reclassifications included changes in classification from selling, general and administrative to cost of sales of $1.7 million and $6.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. During the second quarter of 2015, the Company identified a subsidiary investment which was improperly classified as an intercompany liability. As a result of the correction of this item, the Company reclassified currency translation in other comprehensive income to currency exchange in other income. The nine months ended September 30, 2015, included $3.1 million in currency exchange related to this correction. Titan concluded that this amount is immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
