Note 10 - Adoption of New Accounting Standards

 

 

Update Number 2011-04 – Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. This update to Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) results in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amendments in this update explain how to measure fair value. They do not require additional fair value measurements and are not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices outside of financial reporting. The amendments in this update are to be applied prospectively and are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Bancorp has adopted this update as of January 1, 2012. Adoption had not resulted in any changes in valuation techniques nor related inputs. Note 11 - Fair Value contains expanded disclosure of the level in the fair value hierarchy of inputs that are used in estimating and measuring fair value.

 

Update Number 2011-05 – Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This accounting standard update was issued to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate the convergence of U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Current U.S. GAAP allows the Bancorp to present other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. This accounting standard update eliminates that option and requires consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and the statement of comprehensive income. The requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements are effective for public entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and will be applied retrospectively. A Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income has been included as part of the company’s unaudited financial statements, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Update Number 2011-12 – Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): 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. This update to Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) defers the requirement to present items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income separately with their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income. The deferral supersedes only the paragraphs pertaining to how and where reclassification adjustments are presented. The amendments in this update are effective for public entities for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011.
