Foreign Currency
Asset and liability accounts of international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at current rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the weighted-average currency rate for the fiscal year. Translation gains and losses of subsidiaries operating in hyperinflationary economies are included in net income in the period incurred. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income in the period incurred. Gains and losses resulting from hedging the value of investments in certain international operations and from translation of balance sheet accounts are recorded directly as a component of other comprehensive income.
Transactions in foreign currencies (including receivables, payables and loans denominated in currencies other than the functional currency) increased net income by $16.1 million in 2008, $1.4 million in 2007, and $1.3 million in 2006. In 2008, transactions in foreign currencies included a foreign currency net gain related to certain intercompany transactions of approximately $9 million. These results exclude the effects of translation of foreign currencies on the Company’s financial statements.
In 2008 and 2007, the Company had no operations in hyperinflationary economies. In 2006, the only hyperinflationary economy in which the Company operated was the Dominican Republic, in which the Company uses the U.S. dollar as the functional currency.
