Recent And New Accounting Pronouncements [Policy Text Block]

In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and International Financial Reporting Standards. The guidance changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012. We do not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income in an entity's financial statements. The guidance requires that comprehensive income be presented either in one continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements presenting the components of net income and its total, the components of other comprehensive income and its total, and total comprehensive income. The guidance also requires that reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income be presented in both the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income. The guidance is effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012. We do not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment (“ASU 2011-08”)permitting the assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether events and circumstances lead to the conclusion that it is necessary to perform the traditional two-step impairment test. Under ASU 2011-08, entities testing goodwill for impairment now have the option to perform a qualitative assessment before having to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. If an entity determines, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of the reporting unit is more-likely-than-not less than the carrying amount, the existing two-step quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required. This update is effective for us on October 1, 2012. We do not believe that the adoption of this provision will have a material impact on ourconsolidated financial statements.
