2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K).

 

New Accounting Pronouncements:  In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):  Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (ASU 2013-02).  ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to be reclassified in its entirety to net income.  The amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component.  An entity shall provide this information together, in one location, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or as a separate disclosure in the notes to the financial statements.  The amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.  The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
