Accounting Changes [Text Block] | 2. Change in Presentation of Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows GAAP permits the direct or indirect methods of computing cash flows. Beginning with our fiscal 2014 annual report on Form 10-K, we elected to change the presentation of our cash flow statements from the direct to indirect method of computing cash flows. We believe the indirect method is preferable because:
§ | it provides a more straight-forward presentation of the reconciliation between consolidated net income and consolidated cash flows;
§ | it helps financial statement users to better understand how non-cash transactions are factors of consolidated net income but not sources of consolidated cash flows; and
§ | it helps financial statement users to better understand the different linkages among our consolidated financial statements.
Consequently, we have recast our prior-year condensed consolidated statements of cash flows to conform to the fiscal 2015 presentation under the indirect method.
