Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Note 13: Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard that requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The new standard supersedes virtually all existing authoritative accounting guidance on revenue recognition and requires additional disclosures and greater use of estimates and judgments. During July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the revenue recognition guidance by one year, thus making the new accounting standard effective for our fiscal 2019. We are currently reviewing our contracts and other revenue streams as they relate to this guidance. At this time, we believe we will ultimately choose the modified retrospective approach to implementing the new standard when it becomes effective for our fiscal 2019, but we are still assessing the overall impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and financial statement disclosures. In January 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with the fair value changes to be recognized through net income. This standard does not apply to investments that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or that result in consolidation of the invested entity. We currently hold equity investments that are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, and we recognize the fair value changes through other comprehensive income (loss) as unrealized gains (losses). Based on the fair value of our unrealized loss as of April 30, 2016, adoption of this standard would be immaterial to our consolidated financial statements. Adoption of this standard will be required for our fiscal 2019 financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard requiring all operating leases that a lessee enters into to be recorded on its balance sheet. The lessee will record an asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a liability for the contractual lease payments. This guidance is effective for our fiscal 2020. We are currently reviewing our leases and gathering the necessary information and tools to adopt this guidance when it becomes effective for our fiscal 2020. We are still assessing the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard focused on simplifying the accounting for share-based payments. The guidance includes changes to the accounting for income taxes related to share-based payments as well as changes to the presentation of these tax impacts on the statement of cash flows. This guidance will be applicable for our fiscal 2018. We are still assessing the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that amends current guidance on other-than-temporary impairments of available-for-sale debt securities. This amended guidance requires the use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses on these assets when the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset. This standard also removes the evaluation of the length of time that a security has been in a loss position to avoid recording a credit loss. We are required to adopt this standard for our fiscal 2021 and apply it through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. We are assessing the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that provides guidance on the classification of eight cash receipts and cash payments issues on the statement of cash flows. The intent of this standard is to help reduce diversity in practice regarding cash flow presentation. This guidance will be applicable for our fiscal 2018. We do not believe that adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our statement of cash flows presentation. In October 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of assets other than inventory when the transfer occurs. This guidance will be applicable for our fiscal 2019. We are still assessing the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that requires the statement of cash flows to explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amount generally described as restricted cash. Amounts generally described as restricted cash should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance will be applicable for our fiscal 2019. We do not believe that adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our statement of cash flows presentation. In January 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard clarifying the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to evaluating whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition. This guidance will be applicable for our fiscal 2019. We are still assessing the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In January 2017, the FASB issued a new accounting standard simplifying the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill test. An entity should now perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. This guidance will be applicable for our fiscal 2021. We are still assessing the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
