Comprehensive Income Presentation

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of other comprehensive income. This guidance requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. The option to present items of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity was eliminated. In December 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance that defers indefinitely certain requirements from its June 2011 guidance that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income. We adopted this guidance for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Fair Value Measurements Disclosures

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance clarifying how to measure and disclose fair value. This guidance amends the application of the “highest and best use” concept to be used only in the measurement of fair value of nonfinancial assets, clarifies that the measurement of the fair value of equity-classified financial instruments should be performed from the perspective of a market participant who holds the instrument as an asset, clarifies that an entity that manages a group of financial assets and liabilities on the basis of its net risk exposure can measure those financial instruments on the basis of its net exposure to those risks, and clarifies when premiums and discounts should be taken into account when measuring fair value. This guidance also requires new and enhanced disclosures on the quantification and valuation processes for significant unobservable inputs, transfers between Levels 1 and 2, and the categorization of all fair value measurements into the fair value hierarchy, even where those measurements are only for disclosure purposes. We adopted this guidance for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2012. Since this guidance was disclosure-only in nature, and since the Company’s Level 3 fair value measurements were not significant for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2012, the adoption of this updated guidance did not have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
