NOTE
B– ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In
July 2015,
the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) updated U.S. accounting guidance to simplify the ways businesses measure inventory. Companies that use the
first
-in,
first
-out (FIFO) method or the average cost method will measure inventory at the lower of its cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, minus the cost of completion, disposal, and transportation. Companies will
no
longer consider replacement cost or net realizable value less a normal profit margin when measuring inventory. The guidance was effective for the Company beginning in the quarter ended
June 25, 2017
and did
not
have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
 
In
August 2016,
the FASB issued ASU
2016
-
15,
Statement of Cash Flows (Topic
230
): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force)
”. This update addresses
eight
specific cash flow topics with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice for certain aspects under Topic
230.
ASU
2016
-
15
is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after
December 15, 2017.
The Company elected to early adopt ASU
2016
-
15
during the quarter ending
December 24, 2017.
The adoption of this guidance did
not
have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
