Note 16.  New Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2011-11

In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11 (“ASU 2011-11”), “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” The amendments in ASU 2011-11 will enhance disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) by requiring improved information about financial and derivative instruments that are either (a) offset in accordance with Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (b) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45. This information will enable users of an entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this update. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and for interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
