Impact of Accounting Changes
Note 10.  Impact of Accounting Changes

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities:  In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11  “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) - Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.”   ASU 2011-11 requires an entity to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement.  ASU 2011-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods.  Retrospective disclosure is required for all comparative periods presented.  The Corporation is assessing the impact of ASU 2011-11 on its disclosures.
 
Goodwill:  In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08 “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Goodwill for Impairment.”   ASU 2011-08 allows an entity the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of the reporting unit.  ASU 2011-08 was effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.  Early adoption was permitted.  The Corporation does not expect an impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
 
Comprehensive Income:  In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) - Presentation of Comprehensive Income.”   ASU 2011-05 requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income.  In December 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12 which defers the effective date of the requirement in ASU 2011-05 to present items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income alongside their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income.  ASU 2011-05 was effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011.  The effect of applying this standard is reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Comprehensive Income.
 
Fair Value Measurements:  In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.”   ASU 2011-04 changed the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  Consequently, the amendments in this update result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (International Financial Reporting Standards).   ASU 2011-04 was effective prospectively during interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011.  Early application by public entities was not permitted.  The effect of applying this standard is included in Note 6. Disclosures about Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities included in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q.
 
Transfers and Servicing:  In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-03 “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) - Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreement.”   ASU 2011-03 removed from the assessment of effective control the criterion relating to the transferor’s ability to repurchase or redeem financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee.  ASU 2011-03 was effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011.  The guidance should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occurred on or after the effective date.  Early adoption was not permitted.  ASU 2011-03 did not have an impact on the Corporation’s financial condition, results of operations, or disclosures.
