16. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Presentation of Comprehensive Income" (ASU 2011-05).  The provisions of ASU 2011-05 require 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.  If two separate statements are presented, the statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income.  ASU 2011-05 became effective for us in the quarter ended December 31, 2012.  The adoption of ASU 2011-05 changed the way we present comprehensive income as we now present comprehensive income in a separate statement immediately following the income statement rather than the prior annual presentation of comprehensive income within the statement of equity and quarterly presentation of comprehensive income within the footnotes to the financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in ASU 2011-05" (ASU 2011-12).  The provisions of ASU 2011-12 supersede the requirement of ASU 2011-05 to present the effect of reclassification adjustments on the face of the financial statements where net income is presented, by component of net income, and on the face of the financial statements where other comprehensive income is presented, by component of other comprehensive income.  ASU 2011-12 became effective for us in the quarter ended December 31, 2012.  The adoption of ASU 2011-12 did not have a material effect on our financial statements as we did not have any reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income.
