This amendment clarifies ASC Topic 740 Income Taxes by explicitly providing guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit (UTB) when a net operating loss carry forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry forward exists. Prior to ASU No 2013-11, there was diversity in the presentation of the UTB. ASU No 2013-11 requires the Company to present a UTB, or a portion of a UTB, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position, or if the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the UTB should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the UTB and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date.  The amendments in this update do not require new recurring disclosures. ASU No 2013-11 is effective for fiscal year and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013 and early adoption is permitted.  ASU No 2013-11 is applied prospectively to all UTBs that exist at the effective date. The adoption of the accounting principles of this update is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.   In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments in this update require an entity to disclose significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income by the respective line items of net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. These amendments are effective for the Company prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this accounting update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaDisclosure of the adoption of new accounting pronouncements that may impact the entity's financial reporting.No definition available.false0Recent Accounting StandardsfalseRecent Accounting StandardsUnKnownUnKnownUnKnownUnKnowntruefalsefalseSheethttp://irvine-sensors.com/role/RecentAccountingStandards12
