Recent Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract] |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13), “Measurement of Credit Losses (Topic 326) on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the existing incurred impairment model for trade receivables with an expected loss model which requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate expected credit loss estimates. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of November 1, 2020, which had no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Effective There is no recent accounting guidance not yet effective that is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements when adopted.
