Comprehensive Income — FASB ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, as amended by FASB ASU No. 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, revises FASB ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, to require that a registrant report comprehensive income in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. The ASUs eliminate the option to present the components of other comprehensive income (OCI) as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. Public entities are required to comply with the new reporting requirements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and interim periods within those years. Calendar year-end companies must adopt the requirements for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or disclosures. Fair value measurements — Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted the accounting standards update that changes the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. Some of the amendments included in this update are intended to clarify the applications of existing fair value measurement requirements. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Our adoption did not have a material effect on the disclosures contained in our notes to the consolidated financial statements.
