Note 2.  Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards—Adopted

Financial Instruments – Credit Losses—In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued accounting guidance that changes how entities account for credit losses for most financial assets, including the allowance for doubtful accounts for trade receivables, and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance replaces the current incurred loss model with an expected credit loss model that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate credit losses over the lifetime of the asset. We adopted the new standard on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this accounting change did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards—Not Yet Adopted

Income Taxes—In December 2019, the FASB issued accounting changes that simplify the accounting for income taxes as part of the FASB’s overall initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020, or January 1, 2021 for the Company. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform—In March 2020, the FASB issued accounting changes that provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The accounting changes may be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company expects to adopt this guidance for any contracts that are modified as a result of reference rate reform. We are continuing

to evaluate which contracts may be impacted by reference rate reform, but believe our use of these accounting changes will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
