Income Taxes

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which eliminates exceptions for intraperiod tax allocation and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences and clarifies the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period.


The new guidance is effective for us in the first quarter of 2022.


The application of this guidance did not impact our financial statements or related disclosures.

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional practical expedients and exceptions in the application of GAAP principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates being discontinued as a result of reference rate reform.


Optional expedients are available for adoption from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022.


For any contracts that reference LIBOR, we are currently assessing how this standard may be applied to specific contract modifications through December 31, 2022.
Variable Lease Payments

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842) - Lessors - Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments, which requires lessors to classify leases as operating leases if they have variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate and would have selling losses if they were classified as finance leases.


The new guidance is effective for us in the first quarter of 2022.


We do not expect the new guidance to have a significant impact on our financial statements or related disclosures.
