New Accounting Standards	3. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.” This update amends ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other” to allow entities an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. Under that option, an entity no longer would be required to calculate the fair value of the intangible asset unless the entity determines, based on that qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The amendments in this update are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, which will be fiscal 2014 for Sysco. Early adoption is permitted. Sysco is currently evaluating the impact this update may have on its indefinite-lived intangibles impairment testing. Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This update amends ASC 210, “Balance Sheet,” specifically the disclosure requirements created by ASU 2011-11, “Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” issued by the FASB in December 2011. This update clarifies the scope of these disclosure requirements to be applicable only to derivatives and securities borrowing and lending transactions that are offset in accordance with GAAP or are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The disclosure requirements continue to be effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013, which will be fiscal 2014 for Sysco. Based on the scope clarification of this update, Sysco does not believe it has any financial instruments requiring these disclosures but will continue to evaluate this assessment. Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This update amends ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income,” to require an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net earnings if the amount is being reclassified in its entirety to net earnings. For other amounts that are not being reclassified in their entirety to net earnings, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012, which is fiscal 2014 for Sysco. Sysco is currently evaluating the impact this update will have on its disclosures. Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate(or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-10, “Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate(or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes.” This update amends ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” to permit the Fed Funds Effective Swap rate to be used as a benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes in addition to U.S. Treasury rates and the London Interbank Offered Rate swap rate. The update also removes the restriction on using different benchmark rates for similar hedges. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for new or redesignated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. Sysco will consider all available benchmark interest rates for any new hedging relationships. Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” This update amends ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” to require that in certain cases, an unrecognized tax benefit, or portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented 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 when such items exist in the same taxing jurisdiction. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, which is fiscal 2015 for Sysco. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date, and retrospective application is permitted. Sysco is currently evaluating the impact this update will have on its financial statements.
