2) Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ratified the Emerging Issues Task Force’s (“EITF”) consensus on Issue 03-10, which amends EITF 02-16.  This consensus requires that if certain criteria are met, consideration received by a reseller in the form of reimbursement from a vendor for honoring the vendor’s sales incentives offered to consumers, such as manufacturer’s coupons and rebates offered to consumers, should not be recorded as a reduction of the cost of the reseller’s purchases from the vendor.  The Company adopted EITF 03-10 at the beginning of fiscal 2004.  The adoption of EITF 03-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.”  FIN 46R replaces FIN 46 and addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities. The provisions of FIN 46R are effective for the first reporting period that

ends after December 15, 2003 for variable interests in those entities commonly referred to as special purpose entities.  Application of the provisions of FIN 46R for all other entities is effective for the first reporting period ending after March 15, 2004.  The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
