Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Forestar Group Inc., all subsidiaries, ventures and other entities in which we have a controlling interest. We account for our investment in other entities in which we have significant influence over operations and financial policies using the equity method. We eliminate all material intercompany accounts and transactions. Noncontrolling interests in consolidated pass-through entities are recognized before income taxes. We prepare our unaudited interim financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission requirements for interim financial statements. As a result, they do not include all the information and disclosures required for complete financial statements. However, in our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items unless otherwise noted. We make estimates and assumptions about future events. Actual results can, and probably will, differ from those we currently estimate including those principally related to allocating costs to real estate, measuring long-lived assets for impairment, oil and gas revenue accruals, capital expenditure and lease operating expense accruals associated with our oil and gas production activities, oil and gas reserves and depletion of our oil and gas properties. These interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. For further information, please read the financial statements included in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. |

New Accounting Pronouncements or Change in Accounting Principle [Line Items] | |
New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements | New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements Pending Accounting Standards In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard becomes effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In July 2015, the FASB decided to defer the effective date of the new standard by one year. This proposed deferral would result in the new standard being effective after December 15, 2017. We have not yet selected a transition method and we are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (Topic 810) , requiring entities to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. The revised consolidation model: (1) modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) or voting interest entities, (2) eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (3) affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, and (4) provides a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in certain legal entities. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The updated standard may be applied retrospectively or using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The updated standard is not expected to materially impact our financial position or disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (Subtopic 350-40), in order to provide clarification on whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a software license is included, the customer should account for the license consistent with its accounting of other software licenses. If a software license is not included, the arrangement should be accounted for as a service contract. The update is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our financial position and disclosures. In June 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Updates. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the codification and are generally categorized as follows: Amendments Related to Differences between Original Guidance and the Codification; Guidance Clarification and Reference Corrections; Simplification; and, Minor Improvements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to impact our financial position or results of operations. |

Our estimated costs of assets for which we expect to be reimbursed by utility and improvement districts were $87,516,000 at second quarter-end 2015 and $65,212,000 at year-end 2014 , including $44,063,000 at second quarter-end 2015 and $31,913,000 at year-end 2014 related to our Cibolo Canyons project near San Antonio, Texas. In first six months 2015 , we have collected $ 7,154,000 in reimbursements that were previously submitted to these districts. At second quarter-end 2015, our inception to-date submitted and approved reimbursements for the Cibolo Canyons project were $65,438,000 of which we collected $33,552,000 . These costs are principally for water, sewer and other infrastructure assets that we have incurred and submitted or will submit to utility or improvement districts for approval and reimbursement. We expect to be reimbursed by utility and improvement districts when these districts achieve adequate tax basis or otherwise have funds available to support payment. |

In second quarter 2015, we recognized non-cash impairment charges of $20,903,000 on our unproved leasehold interests and $25,035,000 on our proved properties principally due to a significant decline in oil prices, drilling results, a change in our plans to develop acreage and increased likelihood that these non-core oil and gas assets in Oklahoma, Nebraska and Kansas will be sold. Impairment charges are included in cost of oil and gas producing activities on our income statement. Dry hole costs in first six months 2015 were $ 9,752,000 , which includes a $ 9,674,000 charge in second quarter 2015 primarily associated with an exploratory well in Oklahoma. In addition, in second quarter 2015 we expensed $ 917,000 of capitalized costs related to pre-drilling activities associated with non-core oil and gas properties in Oklahoma. In first six months 2015 , we recorded a net gain of $854,000 on the sale of 17,168 net mineral acres leased from others in Nebraska and North Dakota and the disposition of 2 gross ( 1 net) producing oil and gas wells in Nebraska and Oklahoma for total proceeds of $2,524,000 . |

At second quarter-end 2015 , we were in compliance with the financial covenants of these agreements. At second quarter-end 2015 , our senior secured credit facility provides for a $300,000,000 revolving line of credit maturing May 15, 2017 (with two one-year extension options). The revolving line of credit may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The revolving line of credit includes a $100,000,000 sublimit for letters of credit, of which $14,816,000 is outstanding at second quarter-end 2015 . Total borrowings under our senior secured credit facility (including the face amount of letters of credit) may not exceed a borrowing base formula. At second quarter-end 2015 , we had $285,184,000 in net unused borrowing capacity under our senior secured credit facility. Under the terms of our senior secured credit facility, at our option we can borrow at LIBOR plus 4.0 percent or at the alternate base rate plus 3.0 percent . The alternate base rate is the highest of (i) KeyBank National Association’s base rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5 percent or (iii) 30 day LIBOR plus 1 percent . Borrowings under the senior secured credit facility are or may be secured by (a) mortgages on the timberland, high value timberland and portions of raw entitled land, as well as pledges of other rights including certain oil and gas operating properties, (b) assignments of current and future leases, rents and contracts, (c) a security interest in our primary operating account, (d) a pledge of the equity interests in current and future material operating subsidiaries and most of our majority-owned joint venture interests, or if such pledge is not permitted, a pledge of the right to distributions from such entities, and (e) a pledge of certain reimbursements payable to us from special improvement district tax collections in connection with our Cibolo Canyons project.

Other indebtedness principally represents $47,388,000 of senior secured loans for two multifamily properties, our 257 -unit multifamily project in Austin and our 354 -unit multifamily property near Dallas. The combined carrying value of these two multifamily properties is $86,137,000 at second quarter-end 2015 . At second quarter-end 2015 and year-end 2014 , we have $13,331,000 and $15,168,000 in unamortized deferred financing fees which are included in other assets.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value | Fair Value Fair value is the exchange price that would be the amount received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. In arriving at a fair value measurement, we use a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable. The three levels of inputs used to establish fair value are the following: • Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; • Level 2 — Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and • Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis principally include real estate assets, oil and gas properties, assets held for sale, goodwill and other intangible assets, which are measured for impairment. In second quarter 2015 , we recognized proved oil and gas property non-cash impairment charges of $25,035,000 principally due to a significant decline in oil prices, declining well performance and an increased likelihood that these non-core oil and gas assets in Oklahoma, Nebraska and Kansas will be sold. The fair value of these properties was determined using Level 3 inputs and the income valuation method. We used a discount rate of 10 percent as of second quarter-end 2015 which is commensurate with our risk and current market conditions associated with realizing the expected cash flows projected for these investments. In first six months 2015 , we recognized non-cash asset impairment charges of $729,000 , of which $504,000 was recognized in first quarter 2015 related to a residential development with golf course and country club property located near Fort Worth which was sold in April 2015 and $225,000 was recognized in second quarter 2015 related to one owned project near Atlanta. Fair value of the one owned project near Atlanta was determined based on the present value of future estimated cash flows expected from these properties.

The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature or variable interest rates. We determine the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments using quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Net Income per Share | Net Income (Loss) per Share Basic and diluted earnings per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines net income per share for each class of common stock and participating security. We have determined that our 6.00% tangible equity units (Units) are participating securities. Per share amounts are computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during each period. In periods with a net loss, no such adjustment is made to earnings as the holders of the participating securities have no obligation to fund losses. Due to a net loss in second quarter and first six months 2015, as the effect of potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive, basic and diluted loss per share are the same. The computations of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows: Second Quarter First Six Months 2015 2014 2015 2014 (In thousands) Numerator: Consolidated net income (loss) $ (34,318 ) $ 14,748 $ (42,555 ) $ 23,755 Less: Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interest (189 ) 74 (110 ) (599 ) Earnings (loss) available for diluted earnings per share $ (34,507 ) $ 14,822 $ (42,665 ) $ 23,156 Less: Undistributed net income allocated to participating securities — (2,689 ) — (4,205 ) Earnings (loss) available to common shareholders for basic earnings per share $ (34,507 ) $ 12,133 $ (42,665 ) $ 18,951 Denominator: Weighted average common shares outstanding — basic 34,278 35,458 34,223 35,407 Weighted average common shares upon conversion of participating securities (a) — 7,857 — 7,857 Dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock and equity-settled awards — 373 — 426 Total weighted average shares outstanding — diluted 34,278 43,688 34,223 43,690 Anti-dilutive awards excluded from diluted weighted average shares 10,829 2,503 10,786 2,277 ___________________ (a) Our earnings per share calculation reflects the weighted average shares issuable upon settlement of the prepaid stock purchase contract component of our 6.00% tangible equity units, issued November 27, 2013. The actual number of shares we may issue upon settlement of the stock purchase contract will be between 6,547,800 shares (the minimum settlement rate) and 7,857,000 shares (the maximum settlement rate) based on the applicable market value, as defined in the purchase contract agreement associated with issuance of the Units. We intend to settle the principal amount of our convertible senior notes (Convertible Notes) in cash upon conversion with only the amount in excess of par value of the Convertible Notes to be settled in shares of our common stock. Therefore, our calculation of diluted net income per share using the treasury stock method includes only the amount, if any, in excess of par value of the Convertible Notes. As such, the Convertible Notes have no impact on diluted net income per share until the price of our common stock exceeds the $24.49 conversion price of the Convertible Notes. The average price of our common stock in second quarter 2015 did not exceed the conversion price which resulted in no additional diluted outstanding shares. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Our effective tax rate was 38 percent in second quarter 2015 and 37 percent in first six months 2015 . Our effective tax rate for first six months 2015 includes a one percent benefit for noncontrolling interests and a two percent detriment for a state valuation allowance and share-based compensation benefits that will not be realized. Our effective tax rate was 35 percent in second quarter 2014 and first six months 2014 , which included a one percent benefit for noncontrolling interests. Our effective tax rates also include the effect of state income taxes, nondeductible items and benefits of percentage depletion. We have not provided a valuation allowance for our federal deferred tax asset and the majority of our state deferred tax assets because, although realization is not assured, we believe it is more likely than not they will be recoverable in future periods based on considerations including taxable income in prior carryback years, future reversals of existing temporary differences, tax planning strategies and future taxable income. The amount of deferred tax assets considered recoverable, however, could be reduced if estimates of future taxable income are reduced due to additional oil and gas restructuring costs or other factors. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Litigation We are involved in various legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of doing business and believe that adequate reserves have been established for any probable losses. We do not believe that the outcome of any of these proceedings should have a significant adverse effect on our financial position, long-term results of operations or cash flows. However, it is possible that charges related to these matters could be significant to our results or cash flows in any one accounting period. Environmental Environmental remediation liabilities arise from time to time in the ordinary course of doing business, and we believe we have established adequate reserves for any probable losses that we can reasonably estimate. We own 288 acres near Antioch, California, portions of which were sites of a former paper manufacturing operation that are in remediation. We have received certificates of completion on all but one 80 acre tract, a portion of which includes subsurface contamination. We estimate the remaining cost to complete remediation activities will be approximately $332,000 , which is included in other accrued expenses. It is possible that remediation or monitoring activities could be required in addition to those included within our estimate, but we are unable to determine the scope, timing or extent of such activities. We have asset retirement obligations related to the abandonment and site restoration requirements that result from the acquisition, construction and development of oil and gas properties. We record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Accretion expense related to the asset retirement obligation and depletion expense related to capitalized asset retirement cost is included in cost of oil and gas producing activities on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. At second quarter-end 2015 and year-end 2014, our asset retirement obligation was $1,926,000 and $1,807,000 , which is included in other liabilities. Oil and Gas Restructuring Costs In connection with review of strategic alternatives with respect to our oil and gas business that was announced in December 2014, we offered retention bonuses to key personnel provided they remain our employees through December 2015 . We are expensing retention bonus costs over the retention period. In first six months 2015, we incurred severance expenses related to staff reductions, paid a portion of the December 2014 accrual under written severance agreements and incurred costs associated with closure of our Fort Worth office. Office closure costs include a $1,750,000 lease termination charge and $391,000 for write off of leasehold improvements which were partially offset by a deferred lease credit of $364,000 . These restructuring costs are included in other operating expense on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. We may incur additional costs related to our strategic initiatives associated with lowering capital expenditures and operating costs associated with our oil and gas business. The following table summarizes activity related to liabilities associated with our oil and gas restructuring activities in first six months 2015: Employee-Related Costs Lease Termination Charge Total (In thousands) Balance at year-end 2014 $ (2,367 ) $ — $ (2,367 ) Additions (1,574 ) (1,750 ) (3,324 ) Payments 2,038 1,750 3,788 Balance at second quarter-end 2015 $ (1,903 ) $ — $ (1,903 ) |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information We manage our operations through three segments: real estate, oil and gas and other natural resources. Real estate secures entitlements and develops infrastructure on our lands for single-family residential and mixed-use communities, and manages our undeveloped land, commercial and income producing properties, primarily a hotel and our multifamily investments. Oil and gas is an independent oil and gas exploration, development and production operation and manages our owned and leased mineral interests. Other natural resources manages our timber, recreational leases and water resource initiatives. Total assets allocated by segment are as follows: Second Year-End 2015 2014 (In thousands) Real estate $ 689,409 $ 654,774 Oil and gas 295,759 342,703 Other natural resources 20,074 22,531 Assets not allocated to segments (a) 187,077 238,191 $ 1,192,319 $ 1,258,199 _________________________ (a) Assets not allocated to segments at second quarter-end 2015 principally consist of cash and cash equivalents of $98,761,000 and a net deferred tax asset of $65,327,000 . Assets not allocated to segments at year-end 2014 principally consist of cash and cash equivalents of $170,127,000 and a net deferred tax asset of $40,624,000 . We evaluate performance based on segment earnings (loss) before unallocated items and income taxes. Segment earnings (loss) consist of operating income, equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated ventures, gain on sales of assets, interest income on loans secured by real estate and net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Items not allocated to our business segments consist of general and administrative expense, share-based and long-term incentive compensation, gain on sale of strategic timberland, interest expense and other corporate non-operating income and expense. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1—Basis of Presentation . Our revenues are derived from U.S. operations and all of our assets are located in the U.S. In second quarter 2015 , no single customer accounted for more than ten percent of our total revenues.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities We participate in real estate ventures for the purpose of acquiring and developing residential, multifamily and mixed-use communities in which we may or may not have a controlling financial interest. Generally accepted accounting principles require consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (VIEs) in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest and is the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the VIE activities that most significantly impact economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb the VIE losses and right to receive benefits that are significant to the VIE. We examine specific criteria and use judgment when determining whether we are the primary beneficiary and must consolidate a VIE. We perform this review initially at the time we enter into venture agreements and continuously reassess to see if we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE. At second quarter-end 2015 , we have four VIEs. We account for these VIEs using the equity method and we are not the primary beneficiary. Although we have certain rights regarding major decisions, we do not have the power to direct the activities that are most significant to the economic performance of these VIEs. At second quarter-end 2015 , these VIEs have total assets of $73,836,000 , substantially all of which represent developed and undeveloped real estate, and total liabilities of $87,046,000 , which includes $30,075,000 of borrowings classified as current maturities. These amounts are included in the summarized balance sheet information for ventures accounted for using the equity method in Note 7—Investment in Unconsolidated Ventures . At second quarter-end 2015 , our investment in these VIEs is $9,682,000 and is included in investment in unconsolidated ventures. In first six months 2015 , we contributed $74,000 to these VIEs. Our maximum exposure to loss related to one of these VIEs is estimated at $3,843,000 , which exceeds our investment as we have a nominal general partner interest and could be held responsible for its liabilities. The maximum exposure to loss represents the maximum loss that we could be required to recognize assuming all the ventures’ assets (principally real estate) are worthless, without consideration of the probability of a loss or of any actions we may take to mitigate any such loss. |

Cash-settled stock appreciation rights have a ten -year term, generally become exercisable ratably over four years and provide for accelerated or continued vesting upon retirement, death, or disability or if there is a change in control. Equity-settled awards granted to employees in the first six months 2015 include market-leveraged stock units (MSUs) and stock options. Equity-settled MSUs will be settled in common stock based upon our stock price performance over three years from the date of grant. Stock options have a ten -year term, generally become exercisable ratably over four years and provide for accelerated or continued vesting upon retirement, death, or disability or if there is a change in control. Equity-settled awards in the form of restricted stock units granted to our directors are fully vested at the time of grant and are issued upon retirement. The fair value of awards granted to retirement eligible employees expensed at the date of grant was $517,000 and $760,000 in first six months 2015 and 2014 . Unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to non-vested equity-settled awards, restricted stock and stock options is $8,843,000 at second quarter-end 2015 . In first six months 2015 and 2014 , we issued 157,201 and 162,380 shares out of our treasury stock associated with vesting of stock-based awards or exercise of stock options, net of 48,636 and 51,681 shares withheld having a value of $723,000 and $972,000 for payroll taxes in connection with vesting of stock-based awards or exercise of stock options. Long-Term Incentive Compensation In first six months 2015 , we granted $587,000 of long-term incentive compensation in the form of deferred cash compensation. Deferred cash will be paid out after the earlier of three years or the employee's retirement eligibility date and the expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period. The accrued liability was $154,000 at second quarter-end 2015 and is included in other liabilities. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Forestar Group Inc., all subsidiaries, ventures and other entities in which we have a controlling interest. We account for our investment in other entities in which we have significant influence over operations and financial policies using the equity method. We eliminate all material intercompany accounts and transactions. Noncontrolling interests in consolidated pass-through entities are recognized before income taxes. We prepare our unaudited interim financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission requirements for interim financial statements. As a result, they do not include all the information and disclosures required for complete financial statements. However, in our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items unless otherwise noted. We make estimates and assumptions about future events. Actual results can, and probably will, differ from those we currently estimate including those principally related to allocating costs to real estate, measuring long-lived assets for impairment, oil and gas revenue accruals, capital expenditure and lease operating expense accruals associated with our oil and gas production activities, oil and gas reserves and depletion of our oil and gas properties. These interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. For further information, please read the financial statements included in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. |
New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements | New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements Pending Accounting Standards In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard becomes effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In July 2015, the FASB decided to defer the effective date of the new standard by one year. This proposed deferral would result in the new standard being effective after December 15, 2017. We have not yet selected a transition method and we are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (Topic 810) , requiring entities to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. The revised consolidation model: (1) modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) or voting interest entities, (2) eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (3) affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, and (4) provides a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in certain legal entities. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The updated standard may be applied retrospectively or using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The updated standard is not expected to materially impact our financial position or disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (Subtopic 350-40), in order to provide clarification on whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a software license is included, the customer should account for the license consistent with its accounting of other software licenses. If a software license is not included, the arrangement should be accounted for as a service contract. The update is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our financial position and disclosures. In June 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Updates. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the codification and are generally categorized as follows: Amendments Related to Differences between Original Guidance and the Codification; Guidance Clarification and Reference Corrections; Simplification; and, Minor Improvements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to impact our financial position or results of operations. |
