Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted [Text Block] | 4. NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Comprehensive Income The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220)—Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”), effective January 1, 2012 and applied retrospectively, which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (Topic 820)—Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2011-04”), effective January 1, 2012 and applied retrospectively, which provides a consistent definition of fair value and ensures that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for level 3 fair value measurements (as defined in note 14 below). The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not materially impact the fair value measurements of our assets and/or liabilities. Testing Goodwill for Impairment The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)—Testing Goodwill for Impairment (“ASU 2011-08”), effective January 1, 2012, which allows entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not materially impact the carrying value of our recorded goodwill. The Company will perform its next annual goodwill impairment testing on December 31, 2012. Recent Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (“ASU 2012-02”) to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. ASU 2012-02 allows an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If an entity concludes that this is the case, it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount. ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 and early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2012-02 to materially impact the carrying value of our recorded indefinite-lived intangible assets.
