NOTE B: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-04, (“ASU 2020-04”), Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 was issued to provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is effective as of  March 12, 2020, through  December 31, 2022. The Company has evaluated the provisions of this standard and determined that it is applicable to our line of credit and investment margin account. The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) is the basis for interest charges on outstanding borrowings for our line of credit. During the year 2021, the index for interest charges on the Company’s investment margin accounts was transitioned to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The new index rate did not vary materially from LIBOR at the time of transition. The scheduled discontinuation of LIBOR is not expected to materially alter any provisions of either of these debt instruments, except for the identification of a replacement reference rate for our line of credit. The Company has evaluated the new guidance and does not expect it to have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
