Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]


Note 2			Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance simplifying the test for goodwill impairment. The new guidance eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, instead requiring an entity to recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. This guidance is effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We do not currently expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance amending existing guidance for the accounting of credit losses on financial instruments. Under the new guidance, the valuation allowance for credit losses is expected to be incurred over the financial asset’s contractual term. We reviewed the new credit loss standard and determined that it applies to our accounts receivable, which are typically of short duration and for which we have not historically experienced significant credit losses. This guidance is effective for us in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 with a cumulative effect of adoption recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings. We are in the process of evaluating the effect that this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
