Pushdown Accounting [Policy Text Block]      
HHLP’s May 31, 2018 acquisition of TLI was accounted for by HHLP using business combination accounting. Under this method, the purchase price paid by the investor group was assigned to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date based on their fair value. The Company elected to apply "pushdown" accounting by applying the guidance permitted under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805 Business Combinations. By the application of pushdown accounting, the Company’s assets, liabilities and equity were accordingly adjusted to fair value on May 31, 2018 which generated both intangible assets and Value of Business Acquired (“VOBA”). Determining the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Due to the application of pushdown accounting, TL’s financial statements and footnote disclosures are presented in two distinct periods to indicate the application of two different bases of accounting. The periods prior to June 1, 2018 are identified herein as “Predecessor,” while the periods subsequent to HHLP’s acquisition of TLI are identified as “Successor.” As a result of the change in the basis of accounting from historical GAAP to reflect HHLP’s purchase cost, the financial statements for the Predecessor period are not comparable to the Successor periods.
