14. Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued ASU No. 2011-05, "
Comprehensive
Income (ASC Topic 220):
Presentation of
Comprehensive Income" ("ASU 2011-05"), which amends
current comprehensive income guidance. This accounting
update eliminates the option to present the components of other
comprehensive income as part of the statement of
shareholders equity. Instead the Company must
report comprehensive income in either a single continuous
statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections,
net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but
consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 will be effective
during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15,
2011. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No.
2011-12,
"Deferral of
the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of
Reclassification of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive
Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05" ("ASU
2011-12"). ASU 2011-12 defers the requirement in ASU 2011-05 to
present reclassification adjustments for each component of
accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") in both other
comprehensive income and net income on the face of the financial
statements and the presentation of reclassification adjustments
is not required in interim periods. We expect to continue to
present amounts reclassified out of AOCI on the face of the
financial statements or disclose those amounts in the notes to
the financial statements. The effective dates of ASU 2011-12 are
consistent with the effective dates of ASU 2011-05, which is
effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2011. Adoption of these standards is not expected to
have a material impact on the Companys consolidated
financial statements.
In
September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08,
Goodwill and
Other (Topic 350)
Testing
Goodwill for Impairment. The new guidance permits an
entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether
it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting
unit is less than its carrying amount before applying the
two-step goodwill impairment model that is currently in place.
If it is determined through the qualitative assessment that
a reporting unit's fair value is more likely than not greater
than its carrying value, the remaining impairment steps would be
unnecessary. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing
companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment.
The
new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill
impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2011. We do not expect the adoption of ASU
2011-08 will have a material impact on the consolidated financial
statements.
In
May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04,
Fair Value
Measurement (ASC Topic820):
Amendments to
Archive Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements
in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04), which
clarifies existing fair value measurement and disclosure
requirements, amends certain fair value measurement principles,
and requires additional disclosures about fair value
measurements. ASU 2011-04 will be effective during the
interim and annual periods beginning after December 15,
2011. Early adoption is not
permitted. Adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Companys consolidated
financial statements.
