(1)	In the third quarter of 2012, the Company began to reclassify the amortization of actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs from deferred compensation to accumulated other comprehensive income on a quarterly basis. Prior to that date, these amounts were reclassified on an annual basis.

The Company recognizes net periodic pension cost, which includes amortization of net actuarial losses and prior service costs, in both selling & administrative expenses and cost of goods and services, depending on the functional area of the underlying employees included in the plans.

Cash flow hedges consist mainly of foreign currency forward and commodity contracts. The Company recognizes the realized gains and losses on its cash flow hedges in the same line item as the hedged transaction, such as revenue, cost of goods and services, or selling & administrative expenses.
