Recently Adopted Accounting Policies

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update that will simplify the measurement of inventory for companies. The standard differentiates the valuation methods used to measure inventory based on the type of inventory method utilized by a company. Companies using the first-in, first-out method and the average cost method will measure inventory at the net realizable value method to measure inventory. Companies using the last-in, first-out method and the retail method will use the lower of cost or market to measure inventory. The standard was effective for the Company’s first quarter of its 2017 fiscal year. In the first quarter of 2017, the Company adopted this new guidance and it did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

We have substantially completed our evaluation of the impact of the new standard and have determined it will primarily impact our gift card and credit card sales transactions whereby estimated gift card breakage and estimated credit card bad debts will be recognized at the time the initial revenue is recorded. Based on its assessment to date, the Company intends to adopt the full retrospective method in accordance with ASU 606-10-65-1. The Company will finalize our evaluation of the disclosure implications of the standard during the fourth quarter. This standard is not expected to have
