Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Accounting Policies | Accounting Policies In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the cash flows for the same six-month periods, and the financial position at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and except as otherwise discussed such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year and do not contain information included in the company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2012. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC’s rules and regulations dealing with interim financial statements. However, the company believes that the disclosures made in the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K. All dollar amounts, except share and per share amounts, are in millions of dollars throughout the tables included in these notes unless otherwise indicated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current presentation. During the third quarter of 2012 the company identified errors related to its deferred tax liability and goodwill accounts that originated in connection with certain acquisitions five to eleven years ago, resulting in an understatement of these accounts, and a cumulative overstatement of income tax expense. During the fourth quarter of 2012, the company also identified a classification error between goodwill and accumulated other comprehensive income accounts with respect to pensions and postretirement health and other benefits in relation to a certain acquisition completed in 2008. In addition, the company had previously identified an error related to the overstatement of inventory in the Crane segment that had been corrected as an out-of-period adjustment in the second quarter of 2012. The company does not believe these errors to be material to the company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows for any of the company’s previously filed annual or quarterly financial statements. The company has revised the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein and revisions have been reflected in past filings containing affected financial information to correct for these errors. These revisions impacted the condensed consolidated financial statements as follows (Note: The figures noted below have not been adjusted for the results of the Jackson business, which has been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See further detail at Note 2, "Discontinued Operations."): (a) Decrease to cost of sales and increase to earnings from continuing operations before taxes on earnings of $4.0 million and $2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. (b) Increase to provision for taxes on income of $1.2 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively and increase to net earnings and net earnings attributable to Manitowoc of $2.8 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. (c) Increase to basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations and basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to Manitowoc common shareholders for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 of $0.02.
