Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract]  
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") related to how a reporting entity must report its going-concern uncertainties in their financial statements. The new standard requires that management perform interim and annual assessments of its ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of its financial statements. We would be required to provide certain disclosure if there is "substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern." According to the FASB, this update is meant to enhance the timeliness, clarity, and consistency of related disclosure and improve convergence with International Financial Reporting Standards, which emphasize management's responsibility for performing the going concern assessment. The amendment in this ASU will be effective for us beginning the first day of our 2017 fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on our financial disclosures, but don't expect this ASU to have a significant effect.2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (continued)In June 2014, the FASB issued an ASU related to stock compensation. The new standard requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. The update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the periods for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for us beginning the first interim period of our 2016 fiscal year and can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on our financial condition, result of operations and cash flows.In May 2014, the FASB issued an ASU in the form of a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede existing revenue guidance. The ASU's core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard outlines a five step model, whereby revenue is recognized as performance obligations within a contract are satisfied. The standard also requires new, expanded disclosures regarding revenue recognition. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for us beginning the first day of our 2017 fiscal year. Early adoption is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We have not yet selected a transition method. We are evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
