Notes to Financial Statements [Abstract]

1.	Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Roper Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Roper" or the "Company") for all periods presented.

Roper's management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. You should read these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with Roper's consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in its 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report") filed on February 25, 2011 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
