Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	1.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Business
	First United Corporation is a Maryland corporation chartered in 1985 and a bank holding company registered under the federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended.  First United Corporation’s primary business is serving as the parent company of First United Bank & Trust, a Maryland trust company (the “Bank”), First United Statutory Trust I (“Trust I”) and First United Statutory Trust II (“Trust II”), both Connecticut statutory business trusts, and First United Statutory Trust III, a Delaware statutory business trust (“Trust III” and together with Trust I and Trust II, the “Trusts”).  The Trusts were formed for the purpose of selling trust preferred securities that qualified as Tier 1 capital.  First United Corporation is also the parent company of First United Insurance Group, LLC, an inactive Maryland limited liability company that engaged in the general insurance agency business.  The Bank has three wholly-owned subsidiaries:  OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., a West Virginia finance company; OakFirst Loan Center, LLC, a Maryland finance company (collectively, the “OakFirst Loan Centers”); and First OREO Trust, a Maryland statutory trust formed for the purposes of servicing and disposing of the real estate that the Bank acquires through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure.  The Bank also owns 99.9% of the limited partnership interests in Liberty Mews Limited Partnership, a Maryland limited partnership formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating low-income housing units in Garrett County, Maryland (“Liberty Mews”). Until March 27, 2013, the Bank also owned a majority interest in Cumberland Liquidation Trust, a Maryland statutory trust formed for the purposes of servicing and disposing of real estate that secured a loan made by another bank and in which the Bank held a participation interest, but this entity was dissolved on such date.
	First United Corporation and its subsidiaries operate principally in four counties in Western Maryland and three counties in West Virginia.
	As used in these Notes, the terms “the Corporation”, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean First United Corporation and, unless the context clearly suggests otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries.
	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) that require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.  Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the assessment  of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) pertaining to investment securities, potential impairment of goodwill, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. For purposes of comparability, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 presentation.  Such reclassifications had no impact on net income or equity.
	The Corporation has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the statement of financial condition date of December 31, 2014 for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these financial statements as prescribed by ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events.
	Principles of Consolidation
	The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation include the accounts of First United Corporation, the Bank,  OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., OakFirst Loan Center, LLC and First OREO Trust.  All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
	First United Corporation determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether the entity is a voting interest entity or a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with GAAP.  Voting interest entities are entities in which the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable the entity to finance itself independently and provides the equity holders with the obligation to absorb losses, the right to receive residual returns and the right to make financial and operating decisions.  The Corporation consolidates voting interest entities in which it has 100%, or at least a majority, of the voting interest.  As defined in applicable accounting standards, a VIE is an entity that either (i) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (ii) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities.  A controlling financial interest in an entity exists when an enterprise has a variable interest, or a combination of variable interests that will absorb a majority of an entity’s expected losses, receive a majority of an entity’s expected residual returns, or both.  The enterprise with a controlling financial interest, known as the primary beneficiary, consolidates the VIE.
	The Corporation accounts for its investment in Liberty Mews, utilizing the effective yield method under guidance that applies specifically to investments in limited partnerships that operate qualified affordable housing projects.  Under the effective yield method, the investor recognizes tax credits as they are allocated and amortizes the initial cost of the investment to provide a constant effective yield over the period that tax credits are allocated to the investor. The effective yield is the internal rate of return on the investment, based on the cost of the investment and the guaranteed tax credits allocated to the investor.  The tax credit allocated, net of the amortization of the investment in the limited partnership, is recognized in the income statement as a component of income taxes attributable to continuing operations.
	Correction of Prior Period Error
	During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company determined that earnings on a life insurance policy were not recorded properly since its purchase in 1986.  The cumulative impact of the error was $.5 million of cash surrender value that built up over time which should have been recorded to non-taxable other income, with an immaterial effect on any one period.  The Company determined that the insurance policy, of which the Company was the owner and beneficiary, had been purchased as a Key Man Whole Life Policy on a former Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The accumulated cash value on the policy was determined to be a Bank Owned Life Insurance asset.  Accordingly, the opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2013 has been adjusted by $.5 million.  Furthermore, the Bank Owned Life Insurance asset at December 31, 2013 on the Consolidated Statement of Condition was adjusted by $.5 million. The correction of this error also affected the Consolidated Statement of Operations and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2013. These corrections were not considered to be material to prior period financial statements.
	At the time the policy was purchased in 1986, the Company contractually agreed to pay an executive supplemental payment to the retired Chief Executive Officer which was later renewed for the longer of his or his spouse’s remaining life.   At that time, a liability for the obligation of the present value of the cash flows being paid should have been recorded.  After evaluating the liability which is scheduled to expire in 2016, management determined that based on the life expectancy calculation, the remaining liability at both December 31, 2014 and 2013  was immaterial and that as such, no liability would be recorded.
	Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk
	Most of the Corporation’s relationships are with customers located in Western Maryland and Northeastern West Virginia.  At December 31, 2014, approximately 12%, or $99 million, of total loans were secured by real estate acquisition, construction and development projects, with $93 million performing according to their contractual terms and $7 million considered to be impaired based on management’s concerns about the borrowers’ ability to comply with present repayment terms. Of the $7 million in impaired loans, $3 million were classified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) performing in accordance with their modified terms, and $4 million were classified as non-performing loans at December 31, 2014.  Additionally, loans collateralized by commercial rental properties represent 11% of the total loan portfolio as of December 31, 2014.  Note 6 discusses the types of securities in which the Corporation invests and Note 7 discusses the Corporation’s lending activities.
	Investments
	The investment portfolio is classified and accounted for based on the guidance of ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.  Securities bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading account securities and reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in net gains/losses in other operating income. Securities purchased with the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and are recorded at amortized cost.  All other investment securities are classified as available-for-sale.  These securities are held for an indefinite period of time and may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for liquidity purposes as part of our overall asset/liability management strategy.  Available-for-sale securities are reported at market value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income included in consolidated statement of comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes.
	The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for the amortization of premiums to the first call date, if applicable, or to maturity, and for the accretion of discounts to maturity, or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security.  Such amortization and accretion is included in interest income from investments.  Interest and dividends are included in interest income from investments.  Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded using the specific identification method.
	Restricted Investment in Bank Stock
	Restricted stock, which represents required investments in the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) and Community Bankers Bank (“CBB”), is carried at cost and is considered a long-term investment.
	Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment in accordance with ASC Industry Topic 942, Financial Services – Depository and Lending, (942-325-35).  Management’s evaluation of potential impairment is based on its assessment of the ultimate recoverability of the cost of the restricted stock rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value.  The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability is influenced by criteria such as (i) the significance of the decline in net assets of the issuing bank as compared to the capital stock amount for that bank and the length of time this situation has persisted, (ii) commitments by the issuing bank to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of that bank, and (iii) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the issuing bank. Management has evaluated the restricted stock for impairment and believes that no impairment charge is necessary as of December 31, 2014.
	The Corporation recognizes dividends on a cash basis.  For the year ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, dividends of $290,677 and $199,500, respectively.
	Loans
	Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or full repayment by the borrower are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balance, adjusted for any deferred fees or costs pertaining to origination. Loans that management has the intent to sell are reported at the lower of cost or fair value determined on an individual basis.
	The segments of the Bank’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance.  The commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. Non-owner occupied CRE loans, which include loans secured by non-owner occupied nonfarm nonresidential properties, generally have a greater risk profile than all other CRE loans, which include loans secured by farmland, multifamily structures and owner-occupied commercial structures.  The acquisition and development (“A&D”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. One-to-four family residential construction loans are generally made to individuals for the acquisition of and/or construction on a lot or lots on which a residential dwelling is to be built.  All other A&D loans are generally made to developers or investors for the purpose of acquiring, developing and constructing residential or commercial structures.  These loans have a higher risk profile because the ultimate buyer, once development is completed, is generally not known at the time of the A&D loan.  The commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers.  The residential mortgage loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes: amortizing term loans, which are primarily first liens, and home equity lines of credit, which are generally second liens.  The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans (direct and indirect) and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts.
	Interest and Fees on Loans
	Interest on loans (other than those on non-accrual status) is recognized based upon the principal amount outstanding.   Loan fees in excess of the costs incurred to originate the loan are recognized as income over the life of the loan utilizing either the interest method or the straight-line method, depending on the type of loan.  Generally, fees on loans with a specified maturity date, such as residential mortgages, are recognized using the interest method.  Loan fees for lines of credit are recognized using the straight-line method.
	A loan is considered to be past due when a payment has not been received for 30 days past its contractual due date.  For all loan segments, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection.  All non-accrual loans are considered to be impaired.  Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance.  Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.  The Corporation’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.
	Generally, consumer installment loans are not placed on non-accrual status, but are charged off after they are 120 days contractually past due.  Loans other than consumer loans are charged-off based on an evaluation of the facts and circumstances of each individual loan.
	Allowance for Loan Losses
	An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio.  The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.
	The Corporation’s methodology for determining the ALL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35, Receivables-Overall-Subsequent Measurement, for loans individually evaluated for impairment and ASC Subtopic 450-20, Contingencies-Loss Contingencies, for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, as well as the Interagency Policy Statements on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and other bank regulatory guidance.   The total of the two components represents the Bank’s ALL.
	The Corporation maintains an ALL on unfunded commercial lending commitments and letters of credit to provide for the risk of loss inherent in these arrangements.  The allowance is determined utilizing a methodology that is similar to that used to determine the ALL, modified to take into account the probability of a draw down on the commitment.  This allowance is reported as a liability on the balance sheet within accrued interest payable and other liabilities.  The balance in the liability account was $51,950 at December 31, 2014 and $49,400 at December 31, 2013.
	Premises and Equipment
	Land is carried at cost.  Premises and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The provision for depreciation for financial reporting has been made by using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 18 to 32 years for buildings and three to 20 years for furniture and equipment. Accelerated depreciation methods are used for income tax purposes.
	Goodwill
	Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired in business combinations.  In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized but is subject to an annual impairment test.
	Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”)
	BOLI policies are recorded at their cash surrender values. Changes in the cash surrender values are recorded as other operating income.
	Other Real Estate Owned
	Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less the cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, with any losses charged to the ALL, establishing a new cost basis.  Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  Changes in the valuation allowance, sales gains and losses, and revenue and expenses from holding and operating properties are all included in net expenses from other real estate owned.
	Income Taxes
	First United Corporation and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.  Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, the deferred tax liability or asset is determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences) and is measured at the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is determined by the change in the net liability or asset for deferred taxes adjusted for changes in any deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
	ASC Topic 740, Taxes, provides clarification on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  We have not identified any income tax uncertainties.
	State corporate income tax returns are filed annually.  Federal and state returns may be selected for examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the states where we file, subject to statutes of limitations.  At any given point in time, the Corporation may have several years of filed tax returns that may be selected for examination or review by taxing authorities.  With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. Federal, State, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2010.
	Interest and penalties on income taxes are recognized as a component of income tax expense.
	Defined Benefit Plans
	The defined benefit pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits. Under the provisions of Topic 715, the defined benefit pension plan and the supplemental executive retirement plan are recognized as liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, and unrecognized net actuarial losses, prior service costs and a net transition asset are recognized as a separate component of other comprehensive loss, net of tax.  Actuarial gains and losses in excess of 10 percent of the greater of plan assets or the pension benefit obligation are amortized over a blend of future service of active employees and life expectancy of inactive participants.  Refer to Note 18 for a further discussion of the pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan obligations.
	Statement of Cash Flows
	Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash and due from banks and interest bearing deposits in banks in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
	Trust Assets and Income
	Assets held in an agency or fiduciary capacity are not the Bank’s assets and, accordingly, are not included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.  Income from the Bank’s trust department represents fees charged to customers and is recorded on an accrual basis.
	Business Segments
	The Corporation operates in one segment, commercial banking, as defined by ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting.  The Corporation in its entirety is managed and evaluated on an ongoing basis by First United Corporation’s Board of Directors and executive management, with no division or subsidiary receiving separate analysis regarding performance or resource allocation.
	Equity Compensation Plan
	At the 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, First United Corporation’s shareholders approved the First United Corporation Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”), which authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, stock units, performance units, dividend equivalents, and other stock-based awards to employees or directors.  The Omnibus Plan reserved 185,000 shares of First United Corporation common stock for issuance under these awards.
	On June 18, 2008, the Board of Directors of First United Corporation adopted a Long-Term Incentive Program (the “LTIP”).  This program was adopted as a sub-plan of the Omnibus Plan to reward participants for increasing shareholder value, align executive interests with those of shareholders, and serve as a retention tool for key executives.  Under the LTIP, participants are granted shares of restricted common stock of First United Corporation.  The amount of an award is based on a specified percentage of the participant’s salary as of the date of grant.  These shares will vest if the Corporation meets or exceeds certain performance thresholds.  No grants of restricted stock were outstanding under the Omnibus Plan at December 31, 2014.
	The Corporation complies with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, in measuring and disclosing stock compensation cost.  The measurement objective in ASC Paragraph 718-10-30-6 requires public companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award.  The cost is recognized in expense over the period in which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period).  The performance-related shares granted in connection with the LTIP are expensed ratably from the date that the likelihood of meeting the performance measures is probable through the end of a three year vesting period.
	Stock-based awards were made to non-employee directors in May 2014 pursuant to First United Corporation’s director compensation policy.  Prior to May 2014, non-employee directors of First United Corporation received an annual retainer comprised of $10,000 in cash and fully-vested shares of common stock valued at $5,000.  Beginning in May 2014, this policy was changed so that each non-employee director now receives annual retainer comprised of $10,000 in cash and 1,000 fully-vested shares of common stock, and each director has the right to elect to receive additional shares of fully-vested common stock in lieu of some or all of the cash portion of his or her retainer.  In 2013 and 2014, a total of 11,304 and 17,779, respectively, fully-vested shares of common stock were issued to directors, which had a fair market value of $7.96 and $8.78 per share, respectively.  Director stock compensation expense was $88,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and $134,060 for the year ended December 31, 2014.
	Stock Repurchases
	Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, shares of capital stock that are repurchased are cancelled and treated as authorized but unissued shares.  When a share of capital stock is repurchased, the payment of the repurchase price reduces stated capital by the par value of that share (currently, $0.01 for common stock and $0.00 for preferred stock), and any excess over par value reduces capital surplus.  There were no stock repurchases in 2014 and 2013.
	Adoption of New Accounting Standards and Effects of New Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-14, Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure, an amendment of ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors.  ASU 2014-14 specifies that a mortgage loan be derecognized and a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; and, at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate to the guarantor and make a claim on  the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under the amount of the claim, which must be a fixed amount determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate.  An entity can elect to adopt the amendments in ASU 2014-14 using either a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method.  ASU 2014-14 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted.  The Corporation is evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-14, but believes that its adoption will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures, an amendment of ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing.  The amendments in ASU 2014-11 require repurchase-to-maturity transactions to be accounted for as secured borrowing transactions on the balance sheet, rather than sales; and for repurchase financing arrangements, require separate accounting for a transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with (or in contemplation of) a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty, which also will generally result in secured borrowing accounting for the repurchase agreement. The ASU also introduces new disclosures to increase transparency about the types of collateral pledged for repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings, and requires a transferor to disclose information about transactions accounted for as a sale in which the transferor retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial assets through an agreement with the transferee.  All entities are required to present changes in accounting for transactions outstanding on the effective date as a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption.  For public entities, the accounting changes and disclosure for certain transactions accounted for as a sale are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. The disclosure for transactions accounted for as secured borrowings is required for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. Earlier application for a public entity is prohibited. The Corporation is evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-11, but believes that its adoption will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which establishes a comprehensive revenue recognition standard for virtually all industries under U.S. GAAP, including those that previously followed industry-specific guidance such as the real estate, construction and software industries.  ASU 2014-09 specifies that an entity shall recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service (i.e. an asset) to a customer.  An asset is transferred when, or as, the customer obtains control of the asset. Entities are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information on the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. An entity can elect to adopt the standards in ASU 2014-09 using either the full retrospective method for which certain practical expedients are available, or a cumulative effect approach.  ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption not permitted.  The Corporation is evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-09, but believes that its adoption will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure,  which provides guidance clarifying when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs that would require a loan receivable to be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. ASU 2014-04 specifies the circumstances when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of the residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, and requires interim and annual disclosure of both the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate that are in the process of foreclosure.  An entity can elect to adopt the amendments in ASU 2014-04 using either a modified or a retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method.  ASU 2014-04 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted.  The Corporation is evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-04, but believes that its adoption will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.
In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects,  which provides amendments and guidance on accounting for investments by a reporting entity in flow-through limited liability entities that manage or invest in affordable housing projects that qualify for the low-income housing tax credit.  The amendments permit reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. The amendments in ASU 2014-01 should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects before the date of adoption may continue to apply the effective yield method for those preexisting investments. Additional disclosure requirements are applicable to all reporting entities, regardless of whether the election is made.  ASU 2014-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. At December 31, 2013, the Corporation had a single investment in a flow-through limited liability entity that invests in an affordable housing project, for which it currently utilizes the effective yield method to account for its investment.  The Corporation is evaluating whether to change its method of accounting as permitted by ASU 2014-01, but believes that the adoption of ASU 2014-01 will not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists,  which provides guidance on financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The ASU is intended to eliminate diversity in practice resulting from a lack of guidance on this topic in current GAAP. Under the ASU, an entity generally must present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for an NOL carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. The Corporation adopted the provisions of ASU 2013-11 effective January 1, 2014. As the Corporation has no unrecognized tax benefits, the adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have any impact on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.

Regulatory Capital Requirements [Abstract]
Regulatory Capital Requirements
	4.Regulatory Capital Requirements
	We require capital to fund loans, satisfy our obligations under the Bank’s letters of credit, meet the deposit withdrawal demands of the Bank’s customers, and satisfy our other monetary obligations.  To the extent that deposits are not adequate to fund our capital requirements, we can rely on a number of funding sources, including an unsecured Fed Funds lines of credit with upstream correspondent banks; secured advances with the FHLB of Atlanta, which are collateralized by eligible one to four family residential mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, commercial real estate loans, and various securities.  Cash may also be pledged as collateral; a secured line of credit with the Fed Discount Window for use in borrowing funds up to 90 days, using municipal securities as collateral; brokered deposits, including CDs and money market funds; and One Way Buy CDARS funding, which is a form of brokered deposits that has become a viable supplement to brokered deposits obtained directly. At December 31, 2014, the Bank had $70.0 million available through unsecured lines of credit with correspondent banks, $26.9 million through a secured line of credit with the Fed Discount Window and approximately $32.7 million at the FHLB.    Management is not aware of any demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that are likely to materially affect our ability to meet our future capital requirements.
	In addition to operational requirements, the Bank and First United Corporation are subject to risk-based capital regulations, which were adopted and are monitored by federal banking regulators.  These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy and are based on an institution’s asset risk profile and off-balance sheet exposures, such as unused loan commitments and stand-by letters of credit.  The regulatory guidelines require that a portion of total capital be Tier 1 capital, consisting of common shareholders’ equity, qualifying portion of trust preferred securities, and perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill and certain other deductions.  The remaining capital, or Tier 2 capital, consists of elements such as subordinated debt, mandatory convertible debt, remaining portion of trust preferred securities, and grandfathered senior debt, plus the ALL, subject to certain limitations.
	Under the current risk-based capital regulations, banking organizations are required to maintain a minimum total risk-based capital ratio (total qualifying capital divided by risk-weighted assets) of 8% (10% for well capitalized banks), including a Tier 1 ratio of at least 4% (6% for well capitalized banks).  The risk-based capital rules have been further supplemented by a leverage ratio, defined as Tier I capital divided by average assets, after certain adjustments.  The minimum leverage ratio is 4% (5% for well capitalized banks) for banking organizations that do not anticipate significant growth and have well-diversified risk (including no undue interest rate risk exposure), excellent asset quality, high liquidity and good earnings, and between 4% and 5% for other institutions depending on their particular condition and growth plans.  Regulators may require higher capital ratios when warranted by the particular circumstances or risk profile of a given banking organization.  In the current regulatory environment, banking organizations must stay well capitalized in order to receive favorable regulatory treatment on acquisition and other expansion activities and favorable risk-based deposit insurance assessments.  Our capital policy establishes guidelines meeting these regulatory requirements and takes into consideration current or anticipated risks as well as potential future growth opportunities.

	As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the most recent notifications from the regulators categorized First United Corporation and the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  On a consolidated basis, all capital ratios increased at December 31, 2014 when compared to December 31, 2013.  The consolidated total risk-based capital ratios include $40.3 million of First United Corporation’s junior subordinated debentures (“TPS Debentures”) which qualified as Tier 1 capital at December 31, 2014 under guidance issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”).
	At the Bank level, the ratios declined slightly from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2014 primarily because of the Bank’s payment in 2014 of approximately $11.0 million in cash dividends to First United Corporation, which were used to pay all accrued interest and to make quarterly interest payments under the TPS Debentures and to pay all deferred and quarterly dividends on outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock.
	On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve approved final rules that substantially amend the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to First United Corporation. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) subsequently approved the same rules. The final rules implement the “Basel III” regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and are effective January 1, 2015.
	The Basel III capital rules include new risk-based capital and leverage ratios, which will be phased in from 2015 to 2019, and which refine the definition of what constitutes “capital” for purposes of calculating those ratios. The new minimum capital level requirements applicable to the Corporation under the final rules will be: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%); (iii) a total capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from current rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions. The final rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” above the new regulatory minimum capital requirements, which must consist entirely of common equity Tier 1 capital. The capital conservation buffer will be phased-in over four years beginning on January 1, 2016, as follows: the maximum buffer will be 0.625% of risk-weighted assets for 2016, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018, and 2.5% for 2019 and thereafter. This will result in the following minimum ratios beginning in 2019: (a) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.0%, (b) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5%, and (c) a total capital ratio of 10.5%. Under the final rules, institutions are subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if its capital level falls below the buffer amount. These limitations establish a maximum percentage of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.
	The Basel III capital final rules also implement revisions and clarifications consistent with Basel III regarding the various components of Tier 1 capital, including common equity, unrealized gains and losses, as well as certain instruments that will no longer qualify as Tier 1 capital, some of which will be phased out over time. Under the final rules, the effects of certain accumulated other comprehensive items are not excluded; however, banking organizations like the Corporation and the Bank that are not considered “advanced approaches” banking organizations may make a one-time permanent election to continue to exclude these items. The Corporation and the Bank expect to make this election in their first quarter 2015 regulatory filings in order to avoid significant variations in the level of capital depending upon the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the fair value of the Corporation’s available-for-sale securities portfolio.  Additionally, the final rules provide that small depository institution holding companies with less than $15 billion in total assets as of December 31, 2009 (which includes the Corporation) will be able to permanently include non-qualifying instruments that were issued and included in Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital prior to May 19, 2010 in additional Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital until they redeem such instruments or until the instruments mature.
	The Basel III capital rules also contain revisions to the prompt corrective action framework, which is designed to place restrictions on insured depository institutions if their capital levels begin to show signs of weakness. These revisions also take effect January 1, 2015. Under the prompt corrective action requirements, which are designed to complement the capital conservation buffer, insured depository institutions will be required to meet the following capital level requirements in order to qualify as “well capitalized”: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8% (increased from 6%); (iii) a total capital ratio of 10% (unchanged from current rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5% (increased from 4%).
	The Basel III capital rules set forth certain changes for the calculation of risk-weighted assets.  These changes include (i) an increased number of credit risk exposure categories and risk weights; (ii) an alternative standard of creditworthiness consistent with Section 939A of the Dodd-Frank Act; (iii) revisions to recognition of credit risk mitigation; (iv) rules for risk weighting of equity exposures and past due loans; (v) revised capital treatment for derivatives and repo-style transactions.
	We believe that we would be in compliance with the requirements as set forth in the final rules.
	In January 2009, pursuant to the TARP CPP, First United Corporation sold 30,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock and a Warrant to purchase 326,323 shares of its common stock, having an exercise price of $13.79 per share, to the Treasury for an aggregate purchase price of $30 million.  The proceeds from this transaction count as Tier 1 capital and the Warrant qualifies as tangible common equity.  Information about the terms of these securities is provided in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements.
	The terms of the Series A Preferred Stock call for the payment, if declared by the Board of Directors of First United Corporation, of cash dividends on February 15th, May 15th, August 15th and November 15th of each year.  On November 15, 2010, at the request of the Reserve Bank, the Board of Directors of First United Corporation voted to suspend quarterly cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock beginning with the dividend payment due November 15, 2010.  During the suspension, dividends of $.4 million per dividend period continued to accrue.  In April 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Reserve Bank to terminate this deferral by making the quarterly dividend payment due to the Treasury in May 2014 and paying all unpaid dividends that accrued during the suspension period.  Cumulative deferred dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock of approximately $6.5 million were paid on May 15, 2014.  In July 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Reserve Bank to make the quarterly dividend payment due in August 2014.  A dividend payment of $.7 million was paid on August 15, 2014.   In November 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Reserve Bank to make the quarterly dividend payment due in November 2014.  A dividend payment of $.7 million was paid on November 15, 2014.  In January 2015, First United Corporation received approval from the Federal Reserve Bank to make the quarterly dividend due in February 2015.  A dividend payment of $.7 million was paid to the new holders on February 17, 2015.  Until further notice from the Reserve Bank, First United Corporation is required to obtain the Reserve Bank’s prior approval before making any future quarterly dividend payment.  In considering a request for approval, the Reserve Bank will consider, among other things, the Corporation’s financial condition and its quarterly results of operations.  In addition, First United Corporation’s ability to make future quarterly dividend payments on the Series A Preferred Stock will depend in large part on its receipt of dividends from the Bank, the declaration and payment of which, as discussed above, are subject to the prior approval of the FDIC and the Maryland Commissioner.  If First United Corporation and/or the Bank do not obtain the regulatory approvals required for a particular quarterly dividend, then First United Corporation would have to again suspend quarterly dividend payments, which would result in a prohibition against paying any dividends or other distributions on the outstanding shares of First United Corporation’s common stock during the suspension period.
	At the request of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (the “Reserve Bank”) in December 2010, First United Corporation’s Board of Directors elected to defer quarterly interest payments under the TPS Debentures beginning with the payments due in March 2011.  In February 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Reserve Bank to terminate this deferral by making the quarterly interest payments due to the Trusts in March 2014 and paying all deferred interest for prior quarters.  In connection with this deferral termination, deferred interest of approximately $1.024 million as well as $77,166 of current interest was paid to Trust I on March 17, 2014, deferred interest of approximately $2.048 million as well as $154,325 in current interest was paid to Trust II on March 17, 2014, and deferred interest of approximately $3.763 million as well as $266,650 in current interest was paid to Trust III on March 15, 2014.  In April 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Federal Reserve Bank to make the quarterly interest payments due in June 2014, and interest of $78,604 was paid to Trust I on June 17, 2014, $157,202 in interest was paid to Trust II on June 17, 2014, and $266,650 in interest was paid to Trust III on June 16, 2014.  In July 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Federal Reserve Bank to make the quarterly interest payments due in September 2014 and interest of $78,572 was paid to Trust I on September 17, 2014, $157,136 in interest was paid to Trust II on September 17, 2014, and $266,650 in interest was paid to Trust III on September 15, 2014.  In November 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Federal Reserve Bank to make the quarterly interest payments due in December 2014 and interest of $77,783 was paid to Trust I on December 17, 2014, $155,558 in interest was paid to Trust II on December 17, 2014, and $266,650 in interest was paid to Trust III on December 15, 2014.  In January 2015, First United Corporation received approval from the Federal Reserve Bank to make the quarterly interest payments due in March 2015.  Until further notice from the Reserve Bank, First United Corporation is required to obtain the Reserve Bank’s prior approval before making any future interest payments under the TPS Debentures.  In considering a request for approval, the Reserve Bank will consider, among other things, the Corporation’s financial condition and its quarterly results of operations.   In addition to this pre-approval requirement, First United Corporation’s ability to make future quarterly interest payments under the TPS Debentures will depend in large part on its receipt of dividends from the Bank, and the Bank may make dividend payments only with the prior approval of FDIC and the Maryland Commissioner of Financial Regulation (the “Maryland Commissioner”).  As a result of these limitations, no assurance can be given that First United Corporation will make the quarterly interest payments due under the TPS Debentures in any future quarter.  In the event that First United Corporation and/or the Bank do not receive the approvals necessary for First United Corporation to make future quarterly interest payments, First United Corporation will have to again elect to defer interest payments.  The terms of the TPS Debentures permit First United Corporation to elect to defer payments of interest for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods, provided that no event of default exists under the TPS Debentures at the time of the election.  An election to defer interest payments is not considered a default under the TPS Debentures.
	First United Corporation’s Board of Directors suspended the payment of dividends on the common stock in December 2010 when it approved the above-mentioned deferral of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock, and this suspension remains in effect.

Management systematically evaluates securities for impairment on a quarterly basis.  Based upon application of accounting guidance for subsequent measurement in ASC Topic 320 (ASC Section 320-10-35), management assesses whether (i) the Corporation has the intent to sell a security being evaluated and (ii) it is more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery.  If neither applies, then declines in the fair values of securities below their cost that are considered other-than-temporary declines are split into two components.  The first is the loss attributable to declining credit quality.  Credit losses are recognized in earnings as realized losses in the period in which the impairment determination is made.  The second component consists of all other losses, which are recognized in other comprehensive loss.  In estimating OTTI losses, management considers (a) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (b) adverse conditions specifically related to the security, an industry, or a geographic area, (c) the historic and implied volatility of the fair value of the security, (d) changes in the rating of the security by a rating agency, (e) recoveries or additional declines in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date, (f) failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, and (g) the payment structure of the debt security and the likelihood of the issuer being able to make payments that increase in the future.  Management also monitors cash flow projections for securities that are considered beneficial interests under the guidance of ASC Subtopic 325-40, Investments – Other – Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, (ASC Section 325-40-35).
Management believes that the valuation of certain securities is a critical accounting policy that requires significant estimates in preparation of its consolidated financial statements.  Management utilizes an independent third party to prepare both the impairment valuations and fair value determinations for its collateralized debt obligation (“CDO “) portfolio consisting of pooled trust preferred securities.  Based on management’s review of the third party evaluations, management believes that there were no material differences in the valuations between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
U.S. Government Treasuries – Available for Sale - Two U.S. government treasuries have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months as of December 31, 2014.  The securities are of the highest investment grade and the Corporation does not intend to sell them, and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell them before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.  Accordingly, management does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.  There were no U.S. government treasuries in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.
U.S. Government Agencies – Available for Sale – There were no U.S. government agencies in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months as of December 31, 2014.  There were three U.S. government agencies in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.  The securities are of the highest investment grade and the Corporation does not intend to sell them, and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell them before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.  Accordingly, management does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.
Residential Mortgage-Backed Agencies – Available for Sale - There were no residential mortgage-backed agencies in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months as of December 31, 2014.  There were three residential mortgage-backed agency securities in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.  The securities are of the highest investment grade and the Corporation does not intend to sell them, and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.  Accordingly, management does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Agencies – Available for Sale – There were two commercial mortgage-backed agencies in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months as of December 31, 2014.  There was one commercial mortgage-backed agency security in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.  The securities are of the highest investment grade and the Corporation does not intend to sell them, and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell them before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.  Accordingly, management does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.
Collateralized Mortgage-Obligations – Available for Sale – There were no collateralized mortgage-obligation securities in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months as of December 31, 2014.  In addition, there were no collateralized mortgage-obligation securities in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.
Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions – Available for Sale - No obligations of state and political subdivisions securities have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months at December 31, 2014.  There were four securities that have been in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.  These investments are of investment grade as determined by the major rating agencies and management reviews the ratings of the underlying issuers and performs an in-depth credit analysis on the securities.  Management believes that this portfolio is well-diversified throughout the United States, and all bonds continue to perform according to their contractual terms.  The Corporation does not intend to sell these investments and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.  Accordingly, management does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.
Collateralized Debt Obligations – Available for Sale - The $12.9 million in unrealized losses greater than 12 months at December 31, 2014 relates to 14 pooled trust preferred securities that are included in the CDO portfolio.  See Note 24 for a discussion of the methodology used by management to determine the fair values of these securities.  Based upon a review of credit quality and the cash flow tests performed by the independent third party, management determined that there were no securities that had credit-related non-cash OTTI charges during 2014.  The unrealized losses on the remaining securities in the portfolio are primarily attributable to continued depression in market interest rates, marketability, liquidity and the current economic environment.
U.S. Government Agencies – Held to Maturity – There were no U.S. government agencies in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2014.
Residential Mortgage-Backed Agencies – Held to Maturity – There were two residential mortgage-backed agencies in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months as of December 31, 2014.  The Corporation has the intent and ability to hold the investments to maturity.  Accordingly, management does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.  There were no residential mortgage-backed agencies in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Agencies – Held to Maturity – There were no commercial mortgage-backed agencies in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2014.
Collateralized Mortgage-Obligations – Held to Maturity - There were no collateralized mortgage obligations in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2014.
Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions – Held to Maturity – No obligations of state and political subdivisions securities have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months at December 31, 2014. There was one obligations of state and political subdivisions security that has been in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more.  This bond is a Tax Increment Fund (TIF) bond.  Management performs an in-depth credit analysis on this security. The Corporation has the intent and ability to hold the investment to maturity.  Accordingly, management does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.
Management systematically evaluates securities for impairment on a quarterly basis.  Based upon application of Topic 320 (ASC Section 320-10-35), management must assess whether (i) we have the intent to sell the security and (ii) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery.  If neither applies, then declines in the fair value of securities below their cost that are considered other-than-temporary declines are split into two components.  The first is the loss attributable to declining credit quality.  Credit losses are recognized in earnings as realized losses in the period in which the impairment determination is made.  The second component consists of all other losses.  The other losses are recognized in other comprehensive income.  In estimating OTTI charges, management considers (a) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (b) adverse conditions specifically related to the security, an industry, or a geographic area, (c) the historic and implied volatility of the security, (d) changes in the rating of a security by a rating agency, (e) recoveries or additional declines in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date, (f) failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest payments, and (g) the payment structure of the debt security and the likelihood of the issuer being able to make payments that increase in the future.  Due to the duration and the significant market value decline in the pooled trust preferred securities held in our portfolio, we performed more extensive testing on these securities for purposes of evaluating whether or not an OTTI has occurred.
The market for these securities as of December 31, 2014 is not active and markets for similar securities are also not active.  The inactivity was evidenced in 2008 first by a significant widening of the bid-ask spread in the brokered markets in which these securities trade and then by a significant decrease in the volume of trades relative to historical levels.  The new issue market is also inactive, as no new CDOs have been issued since 2007.  There are currently very few market participants who are willing to transact for these securities.  The market values for these securities, or any securities other than those issued or guaranteed by the Treasury, are very depressed relative to historical levels.  Therefore, in the current market, a low market price for a particular bond may only provide evidence of stress in the credit markets in general rather than being an indicator of credit problems with a particular issue.  Given the conditions in the current debt markets and the continued absence of observable transactions in the secondary and new issue markets, management has determined that (i) the few observable transactions and market quotations that are available are not reliable for the purpose of obtaining fair value at December 31, 2014, (ii) an income valuation approach technique (i.e. present value) that maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizes the use of observable inputs will be equally or more representative of fair value than a market approach, and (iii) the CDO segment is appropriately classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy because management determined that significant adjustments were required to determine fair value at the measurement date.
Management utilizes an independent third party to assist the Corporation with both the evaluations of OTTI and the fair value determinations for our CDO portfolio.  Management believes that there were no material differences in the impairment evaluations and pricing between December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014.
The approach of the third party to determine fair value involved several steps, including detailed credit and structural evaluation of each piece of collateral in each bond, default, recovery and prepayment/amortization probabilities for each piece of collateral in the bond, and discounted cash flow modeling.  The discount rate methodology used by the third party combines a baseline current market yield for comparable corporate and structured credit products with adjustments based on evaluations of the differences found in structure and risks associated with actual and projected credit performance of each CDO being valued.  Currently, there is an active and liquid trading market only for stand-alone trust preferred securities.  Therefore, adjustments to the baseline discount rate are also made to reflect the additional leverage found in structured instruments.
On December 10, 2013, to implement Section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Act, the Treasury, the federal banking regulators including FDIC, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted the Volcker Rule.  The Volcker Rule prohibits a banking institution from acquiring or retaining an “ownership interest” in a “covered fund”.  A “covered fund” is (i) an entity that would be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, but for the exemptions contained in Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of that Act, (ii) a commodity pool with certain characteristics, and/or (iii) a non-US entity with certain characteristics that is sponsored or owned by a banking entity located or organized in the US.  The term “ownership interest” is defined as “any equity, partnership, or other similar interest.”
On January 14, 2014, the five regulatory agencies changed provisions of the Volcker Rule and published a list of CDOs that were exempt under the rule.  After our review of the exempt list, management identified 15 of our 18 holdings that were exempt from the rule.
The 3 remaining holdings owned that were not included on the exempt list were invested in I-Preferred Term Securities I and I-Preferred Term Securities IV.  The underlying issuers of these bonds were primarily insurance companies and not financial institutions.  Since these securities were not included on the published list of exempt CDOs, management needed to determine whether or not these holdings constitute an “ownership interest” as defined above.  To make this determination, management conducted a thorough review of the Indentures and Offering Memorandums for each of these bonds.
The bonds do not represent an equity or partnership interest.  Under the Volcker Rule, an interest will be an “other similar interest” if it exhibits one or more of seven specified characteristics identified in the Volcker Rule on a current, future, or contingent basis.  Based upon review of the legal documents for I-Preferred Term Securities I and I-Preferred Term Securities IV, the Corporation determined that neither of these bonds exhibit any of these seven characteristics.  Accordingly, the Corporation determined that neither of these bonds meet the definition of an “ownership interest” as defined in the Volcker Rule and that, therefore, as of December 31, 2014, the Corporation has the current intent and ability to hold these bonds until maturity.
The following table presents a cumulative roll-forward of the amount of non-cash OTTI charges related to credit losses which have been recognized in earnings for the trust preferred securities in the CDO portfolio held and not intended to be sold for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

	The segments of the Bank’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance.  The CRE loan segment is then segregated into two classes. Non-owner occupied CRE loans, which include loans secured by non-owner occupied, nonfarm, non-residential properties, generally have a greater risk profile than all other CRE loans, which include loans secured by farmland, multifamily structures and owner-occupied commercial structures.  The A&D loan segment is segregated into two classes. One-to-four family residential construction loans are generally made to individuals for the acquisition of and/or construction on a lot or lots on which a residential dwelling is to be built.  All other A&D loans are generally made to developers or investors for the purpose of acquiring, developing and constructing residential or commercial structures.  These loans have a higher risk profile because the ultimate buyer, once development is completed, is generally not known at the time of the A&D loan.  The C&I loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers.  The residential mortgage loan segment is segregated into two classes:  (i) amortizing term loans, which are primarily first liens; and (ii) home equity lines of credit, which are generally second liens.  The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans (direct and indirect) and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts.
	In the ordinary course of business, executive officers and directors of the Corporation, including their families and companies in which certain directors are principal owners, were loan customers of the Bank.  Pursuant to the Bank’s lending policies, such loans were made on the same terms, including collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with persons who are not related to the Corporation and do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability.  Changes in the dollar amount of loans outstanding to officers, directors and their associates were as follows for the year ended December 31:
	(in thousands)		2014
	Balance at January 1	$	9,871
	Loans or advances		1,226
	Repayments		-1,890
	Balance at December 31	$	9,207
	Management uses a 10-point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio.  The first six categories are considered not criticized and are aggregated as “Pass” rated.  The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification.  Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected.  All loans greater than 90 days past due are considered Substandard.  Only the portion of a specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses that management believes is associated with a pending event that could trigger loss in the short term is classified in the Doubtful category. Any portion of a loan that has been charged off is placed in the Loss category.  It is possible for a loan to be classified as Substandard in the internal risk rating system, but not considered impaired under GAAP, due to the broader reach of “well-defined weaknesses” in the application of the Substandard definition.
	To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Bank has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight.  Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as bankruptcy, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event.  The Bank’s Commercial Loan Officers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in the commercial segments at origination and on an ongoing basis.  The Credit Quality Department performs an annual review of all commercial relationships $500,000 or greater.  Confirmation of the appropriate risk grade is included as part of the review process on an ongoing basis.  The Bank has an experienced Credit Quality and Loan Review Department that continually reviews and assesses loans within the portfolio.  In addition, the Bank engages an external consultant to conduct loan reviews on at least an annual basis. Generally, the external consultant reviews commercial relationships greater than $750,000 and/or criticized relationships greater than $500,000.  Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on loans classified as Substandard on a quarterly basis.  Loans in the Special Mention and Substandard categories that are collectively evaluated for impairment are given separate consideration in the determination of the allowance.
	The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio summarized by the aggregate Pass and the criticized categories of Special Mention and Substandard.  There were no loans classified as Doubtful within the internal risk rating system as of December 31, 2014 and 2013:

	Management further monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the age of the portfolio as determined by the length of time a recorded payment is past due.  A loan is considered to be past due when a payment has not been received for 30 days past its contractual due date.  For all loan segments, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection.  All non-accrual loans are considered to be impaired.  Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance.  Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.  The Corporation’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.

Non-accrual loans which have been subject to a partial charge-off totaled $4.6 million as of December 31, 2014, compared to $1.9 million as of December 31, 2013.
The ALL is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio.  The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.
The Bank’s methodology for determining the ALL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35, Receivables-Overall-Subsequent Measurement, for loans individually evaluated for impairment and ASC Subtopic 450-20, Contingencies-Loss Contingencies, for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, as well as the Interagency Policy Statements on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and other bank regulatory guidance.   The total of the two components represents the Bank’s ALL.
The following table summarizes the primary segments of the ALL, segregated into the amount required for loans individually evaluated for impairment and the amount required for loans collectively evaluated for impairment as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment if the loan  is greater than $500,000 or is part of a relationship that is greater than $750,000 and (i) is either in nonaccrual status, or (ii) is risk-rated Substandard and is greater than 60 days past due.  Loans are considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Factors considered by management in evaluating impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due.  Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.  The Bank does not separately evaluate individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment, unless such loans are part of larger relationship that is impaired; otherwise loans in these segments are considered impaired when they are classified as non-accrual.
Once the determination has been made that a loan is impaired, the determination of whether a specific allocation of the allowance is necessary is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods:  (i) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (ii) the loan’s observable market price; or (iii) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs.  The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis, with management utilizing the fair value of collateral method for all of the analyses.  If the fair value of the collateral less selling costs method is utilized for collateral securing loans in the commercial segments, then an updated external appraisal is ordered on the collateral supporting the loan if the loan balance is greater than $500,000 and the existing appraisal is greater than 18 months old.  If the loan balance is less than $500,000, then the estimated fair value of the collateral is determined by adjusting the existing appraisal by the appropriate percentage from an internally prepared appraisal discount grid.  This grid considers the age of a third party appraisal and the geographic region where the collateral is located in order to discount an appraisal that was performed between 2004 and 2008.  The discount rates in the appraisal discount grid are updated at least annually to reflect the most current knowledge that management has available, including the results of current appraisals.  If there is a delay in receiving an updated appraisal or if the appraisal is found to be deficient in our internal appraisal review process and re-ordered, the Bank continues to use a discount factor from the appraisal discount grid based on the collateral location and current appraisal age in order to determine the estimated fair value. If management believes that general market conditions in that geographic market have changed considerably, the property has deteriorated or perhaps lost an income stream, or a recent appraisal for a similar property indicates a significant change, then management may adjust the fair value indicated by the existing appraisal until a new appraisal is obtained.  A specific allocation of the ALL is recorded if there is any deficiency in collateral value determined by comparing the estimated fair value to the recorded investment of the loan. When updated appraisals are received and reviewed, adjustments are made to the specific allocation as needed.
The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the ALL and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis.
The following table presents impaired loans by class, segregated by those for which a specific allowance was required and those for which a specific allowance was not necessary as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate.  For general allowances, historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio.  These historical loss amounts are modified by other qualitative factors.
The classes described above, which are based on the Federal call code assigned to each loan, provide the starting point for the ALL analysis.  Management tracks the historical net charge-off activity (full and partial charge-offs, net of full and partial recoveries) at the call code level.  A historical charge-off factor is calculated utilizing a defined number of consecutive historical quarters. Consumer pools currently utilize a rolling 12 quarters, while Commercial pools currently utilize a rolling eight quarters.
“Pass” rated credits are segregated from “Criticized” credits for the application of qualitative factors. The un-criticized (“pass”) pools for commercial and residential real estate are further segmented based upon the geographic location of the underlying collateral.  There are seven geographic regions utilized – six that represent the Bank’s lending footprint and a seventh for all out-of-market credits.  Different economic environments and resultant credit risks exist in each region that are acknowledged in the assignment of qualitative factors.  Loans in the criticized pools, which possess certain qualities or characteristics that may lead to collection and loss issues, are closely monitored by management and subject to additional qualitative factors.
Management supplements the historical charge-off factor with a number of additional qualitative factors that are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the existing loan pools to differ from historical loss experience.  The additional factors, which are evaluated quarterly and updated using information obtained from internal, regulatory, and governmental sources, are:  (i) national and local economic trends and conditions; (ii) levels of and trends in delinquency rates and non-accrual loans; (iii) trends in volumes and terms of loans; (iv) effects of changes in lending policies; (v) experience, ability, and depth of lending staff; (vi) value of underlying collateral; and (vii) concentrations of credit from a loan type, industry and/or geographic standpoint.
Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL.  When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALL.  Residential mortgage and consumer loans are charged off after they are 120 days contractually past due.  All other loans are charged off based on an evaluation of the facts and circumstances of each individual loan. When the Bank believes that its ability to collect is solely dependent on the liquidation of the collateral, a full or partial charge-off is recorded promptly to bring the recorded investment to an amount that the Bank believes is supported by an ability to collect on the collateral.  The circumstances that may impact the Bank’s decision to charge-off all or a portion of a loan include default or non-payment by the borrower, scheduled foreclosure actions, and/or prioritization of the Bank’s claim in bankruptcy.  There may be circumstances where due to pending events, the Bank will place a specific allocation of the ALL on a loan for which a partial charge-off has been previously recognized.  This specific allocation may be either charged-off or removed depending upon the outcome of the pending event.  Full or partial charge-offs are not recovered until full principal and interest on the loan have been collected, even if a subsequent appraisal supports a higher value. In most cases, loans with partial charge-offs remain in non-accrual status. Both full and partial charge-offs reduce the recorded investment of the loan and the ALL and are considered to be charge-offs for purposes of all credit loss metrics and trends, including the historical rolling charge-off rates used in the determination of the ALL.

In the normal course of business, the Bank modifies loan terms for various reasons.  These reasons may include as a retention strategy to compete in the current interest rate environment, and to re-amortize or extend a loan term to better match the loan’s payment stream with the borrower’s cash flows.  A modified loan is considered to be a TDR when the Bank has determined that the borrower is troubled (i.e. experiencing financial difficulties). The Bank evaluates the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without modification. To make this determination, the Bank performs a global financial review of the borrower and loan guarantors to assess their current ability to meet their financial obligations.
When the Bank restructures a loan to a troubled borrower, the loan terms (i.e. interest rate, payment, amortization period and/or maturity date) are modified in such a way to enable the borrower to cover the modified debt service payments based on current financials and cash flow adequacy.  If a borrower’s hardship is thought to be temporary, then modified terms are only offered for that time period. Where possible, the Bank obtains additional collateral and/or secondary payment sources at the time of the restructure in order to put the Bank in the best possible position if the borrower is not able to meet the modified terms. To date, the Bank has not forgiven any principal as a restructuring concession. The Bank will not offer modified terms if it believes that modifying the loan terms will only delay an inevitable permanent default.
All loans designated as TDRs are considered impaired loans and may be in either accruing or non-accruing status.  The Corporation’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.  Accordingly, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection.  If the loan was accruing at the time of the modification, then it continues to be in accruing status subsequent to the modification. Non-accrual TDRs may return to accruing status when there has been sufficient payment performance for a period of at least six months.  TDRs are considered to be in payment default if, subsequent to modification, the loans are transferred to non-accrual status or to foreclosure.  A loan may be removed from being reported as a TDR in the calendar year following the modification if the interest rate at the time of modification was consistent with the interest rate for a loan with comparable credit risk and the loan has performed according to its modified terms for at least six months.  Further, a loan that has been removed from TDR reporting status and has been subsequently re-modified at standard market terms, may be removed from impaired status as well.
The volume, type and performance of TDR activity is considered in the assessment of the local economic trend qualitative factor used in the determination of the ALL for loans that are evaluated collectively for impairment.
There were 27 loans totaling $13.7 million and 31 loans totaling $17.9 million that were classified as TDRs at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  The following table presents the volume and recorded investment at the time of modification of TDRs by class and type of modification that occurred during the periods indicated:

During the year ended December 31, 2014, there were three new TDRs.  In addition, eight existing TDRs which had reached their original modification maturity were re-modified.  A $1,822 reduction of the ALL resulted from a change to the impairment evaluation of two loans, from evaluated collectively to being evaluated individually. The remaining new TDR was impaired at the time of modification, resulting in no impact to the ALL as a result of the modification. There was no impact to the recorded investment relating to the transfer of these loans.
During the year ended December 31, 2014, activity relating to payment defaults included three A&D loans totaling $1.6 million that were transferred to other real estate owned (“OREO”) in the fourth quarter; and a $.2 million C&I loan and a $.4 million owner-occupied CRE loan that were transferred to non-accrual in the third quarter.  During the year ended December 31, 2013, activity relating to payment defaults included three non-owner occupied CRE loans totaling $2.2 million to the same borrower that were transferred to non-accrual in the third quarter  and two non-performing A&D loans totaling $.4 million that were transferred to OREO in the second quarter.
At December 31, 2014 and 2013, additional funds of up to $10,400 and $2.0 million, respectively, were committed to be advanced in connection with TDRs.

Goodwill

Goodwill [Abstract]
Goodwill	10.Goodwill
	ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, establishes standards for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and impairment assessment of goodwill.  The $11.0 million in recorded goodwill at December 31, 2014 is related to the Bank’s 2003 acquisition of Huntington National Bank branches and is not subject to periodic amortization.
	Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible elements in the business acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Impairment testing requires that the fair value of each of the Corporation’s reporting units be compared to the carrying amount of its net assets, including goodwill.  If the estimated current fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, then no additional testing is required and an impairment loss is not recorded. Otherwise, additional testing is performed and, to the extent such additional testing results in a conclusion that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized.
	Our goodwill relates to value inherent in the banking business and the value is dependent upon our ability to provide quality, cost effective services in a highly competitive local market.  This ability relies upon continuing investments in processing systems, the development of value-added service features and the ease of use of our services.  As such, goodwill value is supported ultimately by revenue that is driven by the volume of business transacted.  A decline in earnings as a result of a lack of growth or the inability to deliver cost effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill, which could adversely impact earnings in future periods.  ASC Topic 350 requires an annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment.  The determination of whether or not these assets are impaired involves significant judgments and estimates.
	During 2014, shares of First United Corporation’s common stock traded at prices that were below the common stock’s book value and, at December 31, 2014, the sales price was below the common stock’s tangible book value.
	Management believed that these circumstances could indicate the possibility of impairment.  Accordingly, management consulted a third party valuation specialist to assist it with the determination of the fair value of First United Corporation, considering both the market approach (guideline public company method) and the income approach (discounted future benefits method). Due to the illiquidity in the common stock and the adverse conditions surrounding the banking industry, reliance was placed on the income approach in determining the fair value of First United Corporation.  The income approach is a discounted cash flow analysis that is determined by adding (i) the present value, which is a representation of the current value of a sum that is to be received some time in the future, of the estimated net income, net of dividends paid out, that First United Corporation could generate over the next five years and (ii) the present value of a terminal value, which is a representation of the current value of an entity at a specified time in the future.  The terminal value was calculated using both a price to tangible book multiple method and a capitalization method and the more conservative of the two was utilized in the fair value calculation.
	Significant assumptions used in the above methods include:
		·		Net income from our forward five-year operating budget, incorporating conservative growth and mix assumptions;
		·		A discount rate of 14.15% based on an internally derived cost of equity capital determined using the “build-up” method;
		·		A price to tangible book multiple of 1.18x, which was the median multiple of non-assisted transactions for non-assisted commercial bank acquisitions during the 12 months ended September 30, 2014 for selling companies headquartered in the Eastern regional area as compiled by Boenning & Scattergood, Inc.; and
		·		A capitalization rate of 8.15% (discount rate of 14.15% adjusted for a conservative growth rate of 6.0%).
	The resulting fair value of the income approach resulted in the fair value of First United Corporation exceeding the carrying value by 52%.  Management stressed the assumptions used in the analysis to provide additional support for the derived value.  This stress testing showed that (i) the discount rate could increase to 27% before the excess would be eliminated in the tangible multiple method, and (ii) the assumption of the tangible book multiple could decline to 0.59x and still result in a fair value in excess of book value.  Based on the results of the evaluation, management concluded that the recorded value of goodwill at December 31, 2014 was not impaired.   However, future changes in strategy and/or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded asset balances.  Management will continue to evaluate goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and as events occur or circumstances change.
	The significant components of goodwill at December 31, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:

	In March 2004, Trust I and Trust II issued preferred securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $30.0 million to third-party investors and issued common equity with an aggregate liquidation amount of $.9 million to First United Corporation.  Trust I and Trust II used the proceeds of these offerings to purchase an equal amount of TPS Debentures, as follows:
	$20.6 million—floating rate payable quarterly based on three-month LIBOR plus 275 basis points (2.99% at December 31, 2014), maturing in 2034, became redeemable five years after issuance at First United Corporation’s option.
	$10.3 million--floating rate payable quarterly based on three-month LIBOR plus 275 basis points  (2.99% at December 31, 2014) maturing in 2034, became redeemable five years after issuance at First United Corporation’s option.
	In December 2004,  First United Corporation issued $5.0 million of junior subordinated debentures to third-party investors that were not tied to preferred securities.  The debentures had a fixed rate of 5.88% for the first five years, payable quarterly, and converted to a floating rate in March 2010 based on the three month LIBOR plus 185 basis points (2.09% at December 31, 2014).  The debentures mature in 2015, but became redeemable five years after issuance at First United Corporation’s option.
	In December 2009, Trust III issued 9.875% fixed-rate preferred securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of approximately $7.0 million to private investors and issued common securities to First United Corporation with an aggregate liquidation amount of approximately $.2 million.  Trust III used the proceeds of the offering to purchase approximately $7.2 million of 9.875% fixed-rate TPS Debentures.  Interest on these TPS Debentures are payable quarterly, and the TPS Debentures mature in 2040 but are redeemable five years after issuance at First United Corporation’s option.
	In January 2010, Trust III issued an additional $3.5 million of 9.875% fixed-rate preferred securities to private investors and issued common securities to First United Corporation with an aggregate liquidation amount of $.1 million.  Trust III used the proceeds of the offering to purchase $3.6 million of 9.875% fixed-rate TPS Debentures.  Interest on these TPS Debentures are payable quarterly, and the TPS Debentures mature in 2040 but are redeemable five years after issuance at First United Corporation’s option.
	The TPS Debentures issued to each of the Trusts represent the sole assets of that Trust, and payments of the TPS Debentures by First United Corporation are the only sources of cash flow for the Trust.  First United Corporation has the right, without triggering a default, to defer interest on all of the TPS Debentures for up to 20 quarterly periods, in which case distributions on the preferred securities will also be deferred.  Should this occur, the Corporation may not pay dividends or distributions on, or repurchase, redeem or acquire any shares of its capital stock.  Refer to Note 4 for further details.
	Interest payments on the $5.0 million junior subordinated debentures that were issued outside of trust preferred securities offerings cannot, and have not, been deferred.
	In December 2010, the Board of Directors of First United Corporation voted to suspend the payment of cash dividends on the common stock starting in 2011 in connection with the above-mentioned deferral of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock.

	On January 30, 2009, pursuant to the TARP CPP, First United Corporation issued to the Treasury 30,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock, having no par value, and a Warrant to purchase 326,323 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $13.79 per share, for an aggregate consideration of $30 million.  The proceeds from this transaction qualify as Tier 1 capital and the Warrant qualifies as tangible common equity.  The operative documents relating to this transaction are on file with the SEC and available to the public free of charge.
	Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, if and when declared by the Board of Directors, out of assets legally available for payment, cumulative cash dividends at a rate per annum of 5% per share on a liquidation amount of $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to each dividend period from January 30, 2009 to, but excluding, February 15, 2014.  From and after February 15, 2014, holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative cash dividends at a rate per annum of 9% per share on a liquidation amount of $1,000 per share with respect to each dividend period thereafter.  In 2014, the Corporation paid $7.9 million in dividends, including all deferred dividends, to holders of the Series A. Preferred Stock.  Under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, on and after February 15, 2012, First United Corporation may, at its option and after consulting with the Reserve Bank, redeem shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, for cash at a per share amount equal to the sum of the liquidation preference per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends to but excluding the redemption date.
	On December 4, 2014, the Treasury sold all of its shares of Series A Preferred Stock to third-party investors.

	As noted in Note 13, First United Corporation created the Trusts for the purposes of raising regulatory capital through the sale of mandatorily redeemable preferred capital securities to third party investors and common equity interests to First United Corporation.  The Trusts are considered VIEs, but are not consolidated because First United Corporation is not the primary beneficiary of the Trusts.  At December 31, 2014, the Corporation reported all of the $41.7 million of TPS Debentures issued in connection with these offerings as long-term borrowings (along with the $5.0 million of stand-alone junior subordinated debentures), and it reported its $1.3 million equity interest in the Trusts as “Other Assets”.
	In November 2009, the Bank became a 99.99% limited partner in Liberty Mews.  Liberty Mews was financed with a total of $10.6 million of funding, including a $6.1 million equity contribution from the Bank as the limited partner. Liberty Mews used the proceeds from these sources to purchase land and construct thereon a 36-unit low income housing rental complex at a total cost of $10.6 million.  The total assets of Liberty Mews were $9.4 million at December 31, 2014 and $9.7 million at December 31, 2013.
	Through December 31, 2014, the Bank had made contributions to Liberty Mews totaling $6.1 million.  The project for which Liberty Mews was formed was completed in June 2011, and the Bank is entitled to $8.4 million in federal investment tax credits over a 10-year period as long as certain qualifying hurdles are maintained.  The Bank will also receive the benefit of tax operating losses from Liberty Mews the extent of its capital contribution. The investment in Liberty Mews assists the Bank in achieving its community reinvestment initiatives.
	Because Liberty Mews is considered to be a VIE, management performed an analysis to determine whether its involvement with Liberty Mews would lead it to determine that it must consolidate Liberty Mews.  In performing its analysis, management evaluated the risks creating the variability in Liberty Mews and identified which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance.  Finally, it examined each of the variable interest holders to determine which, if any, of the holders was the primary beneficiary based on their power to direct the most significant activities and their obligation to absorb potentially significant losses of Liberty Mews.
	The Bank, as a limited partner, generally has no voting rights. The Bank is not in any way involved in the daily management of Liberty Mews and has no other rights that provide it with the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Liberty Mews’ economic performance, which are to develop and operate the housing project in such a manner that complies with specific tax credit guidelines.  As a limited partner, there is no recourse to the Bank by the creditors of Liberty Mews.  The tax credits that result from the Bank’s investment in Liberty Mews are generally subject to recapture should the partnership fail to comply with the applicable government regulations.  The Bank has not provided any financial or other support to Liberty Mews beyond its required capital contributions and does not anticipate providing such support in the future. Management currently believes that no material losses are probable as a result of the Bank’s investment in Liberty Mews.
	On the basis of management’s analysis, the general partner is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of Liberty Mews. Because the Bank is not the primary beneficiary, Liberty Mews has not been included in the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.
	At December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Corporation included its total investment in Liberty Mews in “Other Assets” in its Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.  As of December 31, 2014, the Corporation’s commitment in Liberty Mews is fully funded.  The following table presents details of the Bank’s involvement with Liberty Mews at the dates indicated:

	Net deferred tax assets	$	25,907	$	29,209
	State income tax expense amounted to $.5 million during 2014 and $.8 million during 2013.
	In assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income of the appropriate character (for example, ordinary income or capital gain) within the carry-back or carry-forward period available under the tax law during the periods in which temporary differences are deductible.  The Corporation has considered future market growth, forecasted earnings, future taxable income, and feasible and permissible tax planning strategies in determining whether it will be able to realize the deferred tax asset. If the Corporation were to determine that it will not be able to realize a portion of its net deferred tax asset in the future for which there is currently no valuation allowance, an adjustment to the net deferred tax asset would be charged to earnings in the period such determination was made.  Conversely, if the Corporation were to make a determination that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets for which there is a valuation allowance will be realized, the related valuation allowance would be reduced and a benefit would be recorded.
	At December 31, 2014 the Corporation has federal net operating losses (“NOLs”) of approximately $12.0 million and West Virginia NOLs of approximately $5.3 million for which deferred tax assets of $4.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, have been recorded at December 31, 2014.   The federal and West Virginia NOLs were created in 2010, 2012 and 2014 and will begin expiring in 2030.  Based on our evaluation of the four sources of taxable income, Management has determined that a deferred tax valuation allowance for 2014 is not required on the Federal and West Virginia NOLs because we believe it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets can be realized prior to expiration of their carry-forward periods based on the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities, the generation of future income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets as they reverse.
	The Corporation has Maryland NOL carry-forwards of $34.0 million relating to a Parent Company (First United Corporation) NOL for which a deferred tax asset of $1.7 million has been recorded at December 31, 2014.  There has been and continues to be a full valuation allowance on this NOL based on the fact that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will not be realized because First United Corporation files a separate Maryland income tax return, has recurring tax losses and is not expected to generate sufficient taxable income in the future to utilize the NOL carry-forwards before they expire.  The valuation allowance of $1.7 million at December 31, 2014 reflects an increase of $.1 million from the level at December 31, 2013.

Employee Benefit Plans [Abstract]
Employee Benefit Plans	18.Employee Benefit Plans
	First United Corporation sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan (the “Pension Plan”) covering the employees who were hired prior to the freeze and others who were grandfathered into the plan. The benefits are based on years of service and the employees’ compensation during the last five years of employment.
	Effective April 30, 2010, the Pension Plan was amended, resulting in a “soft freeze”, the effect of which prohibits new entrants into the plan and ceases crediting of additional years of service, after that date.  Effective January 1, 2013, the Pension Plan was amended to unfreeze it for those employees for whom the sum of (i) their ages, at their closest birthday, plus (ii) years of service for vesting purposes equals 80 or greater.  The “soft freeze” continues to apply to all other plan participants.   Pension benefits for these participants will be managed through discretionary contributions to the First United Corporation 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “401(k) Plan”).
	During 2001, the Bank established an unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan (the “SERP”).   The SERP is available only to a select group of management or highly compensated employees to provide supplemental retirement benefits in excess of limits imposed on qualified plans by federal tax law.  Concurrent with the establishment of the SERP, the Bank acquired BOLI policies on the senior management personnel and officers of the Bank.  The benefits resulting from the favorable tax treatment accorded the earnings on the BOLI policies are intended to provide a source of funds for the future payment of the SERP benefits as well as other employee benefit costs.
	The benefit obligation activity for both the Pension Plan and SERP was calculated using an actuarial measurement date of January 1. Plan assets and the benefit obligations were calculated using an actuarial measurement date of December 31.
	On January 9, 2015, the Corporation and members of management who do not participate in the SERP entered into participation agreements under the Deferred Compensation Plan, each styled as a SERP Alternative Participation Agreement (the “Participation Agreement”).  Pursuant to each Participation Agreement, the Corporation agreed, for each Plan Year (as defined in the Deferred Compensation Plan) in which it determines that it has been Profitable (as defined in the Participation Agreement), to make a discretionary contribution to the participant’s Employer Account in an amount equal to 15% of the participant’s base salary level for such Plan Year, with the first Plan Year being the year ending December 31, 2015.  The Participation Agreement provides that the participant will become 100% vested in the amount maintained in his or her Employer Account upon the earliest to occur of the following events: (i) Normal Retirement (as defined in the Participation Agreement); (ii)  Separation from Service (as defined in the Participation Agreement) following a Change of Control (as defined in the Deferred Compensation Plan) and subsequent Triggering Event (as defined in the Participation Agreement); (iii) Separation from Service due to a Disability (as defined in the Participation Agreement); (iv) with respect to a particular award of Employer Contribution Credits, the participant’s completion of two consecutive Years of Service (as defined in the Participation Agreement) immediately following the Plan Year for which such award was made; or (v) death.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a participant will lose entitlement to the amount maintained in his or her Employer Account in the event employment is terminated for Cause (as defined in the Participation Agreement).  In addition, the Participation Agreement conditions entitlement to the amounts held in the Employer Account on the participant’s (a) refraining from engaging in Competitive Employment (as defined in the Participation Agreement) for three years following his Separation from Service, (b) refraining from injurious disclosure of confidential information concerning the Corporation, and (c) remaining available, at the Corporation’s reasonable request, to provide at least six hours of transition services per month for 12 months following his or her Separation from Service (except in the case of death or Disability), except that only item (b) will apply in the event of a Separation from Service following a Change of Control and subsequent Triggering Event.
	The following tables summarize benefit obligation and funded status, plan asset activity, components of net pension cost, and weighted average assumptions for the Pension Plan and the SERP:

	The accumulated benefit obligation for the Pension Plan was $35.7 million and $27.2 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The accumulated benefit obligation for the SERP was $4.9 million and $4.3 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The impact of the change in the discount rate from 4.75% to 4.00% to the pension benefit obligation was $4.1 million.  The impact of the adoption of the new RP-2014 mortality tables was an increase of $3.1 million in actuarial loss.  The $3.0 million contribution in the fourth quarter increased the fair value from $34.8 million at December 31, 2013 to $39.0 million at December 31, 2014.
	The investment assets of a defined benefit plan are managed with the goal of providing for retiree distributions while also supporting long-term plan obligations with a moderate level of portfolio risk.  In order to address the variability over time of both risk and return, the plan investment strategy entails a dynamic approach to asset allocation, providing for normalized targets for major asset classes, with the ability to tactically adjust within the following specified ranges around those targets.
	Asset Class	Normalized Target	Range
	Cash	5%	0% - 20%
	Fixed Income	40%	30% - 50%
	Equities	55%	45% - 65%
	Decisions regarding tactical adjustments within the above noted ranges for asset classes are based on a top down review of factors expected to have material impact on the risk and reward dynamics of the portfolio as a whole. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
		·		Anticipated domestic and international economic growth as a whole;
		·		The position of the economy within its longer term economic cycle; and
		·		The expected impact of economic vitality, cycle positioning, financial market risks, industry/demographic trends and political forces on the various market sectors and investment styles.
	With respect to individual company securities, additional company specific matters are considered, which could include management track record and guidance, future earnings expectations, current relative price expectations and the impact of identified risks on expected performance, among others. A core equity position of large cap stocks will be maintained, with more aggressive or volatile sectors meaningfully represented in the asset mix in pursuit of higher returns.
	Strategic and specific investment decisions are guided by an in-house investment committee as well as a number of outside institutional resources that provide economic, industry and company data and analytics.  It is management’s intent to give the Plan’s investment managers flexibility with respect to investment decisions and their timing within the overall guidelines.  However, certain investments require specific review and approval by management.  Management is also informed of anticipated changes in nonproprietary investment managers, significant modifications of any previously approved investment, or the anticipated use of derivatives to execute investment strategies.
	Portfolio risk is managed in large part by a focus on diversification across multiple levels as well as an emphasis on financial strength. For example, current investment policies restrict initial investments in debt securities to be rated investment grade at the time of purchase. Also, with the exception of the highest rated securities (e.g. - U.S. Treasury or government-backed agency securities), no more than 10% of the portfolio may be invested in a single entity’s securities.  As a result of the previously noted approaches to controlling portfolio risk, any concentrations of risk would be associated with general systemic risks faced by industry sectors or the portfolio as a whole.
	Assets in the Pension Plan are valued by the Corporation’s accounting system provider who utilizes a third party pricing service. Valuation data is based on actual market data for stocks and mutual funds (Level 1) and matrix pricing for bonds (Level 2).  Cash and cash equivalents are also considered Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
	As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the value of Pension Plan investments was as follows:

Total market value	$	34,848	100.0%	$	24,687	$	10,161
The expected rate of return on Pension Plan assets is based on a combination of the following:
	·		Historical returns of the portfolio of assets;
	·		Monte Carlo simulations of expected returns for a portfolio with strategic asset targets similar to the normalized targets; and
	·		Market impact adjustments to reflect expected future investment environment considerations.
As of December 31, 2014, the 25-year average return on pension portfolio assets was 8.04%, exceeding the expected long-term return of 7.75% utilized for 2014.  Considering that future equity returns are partially a function of current starting valuations and the general level of interest rates is at a historically low point, one could start to build a case for lower expected returns going forward.  However, such a case would be muted, especially in the case of equities, by the fact that global equity returns averaged 5.9% for the period from 2001 through 2014, versus close to a 10% average return for the previous seventy-five years.  Additionally, according to a recent Vanguard Global Economics Team white paper, over half of the volatility in expected returns is not explained by current valuations.  As potential returns remain widely dispersed and expected returns are based on a time horizon that will likely exceed the timing of current concerns, it is considered appropriate to maintain the forward expected long-term rate of return of 7.75%.
The Pension Plan did not hold any shares of First United Corporation common stock at December 31, 2014 or 2013.

401(k) Profit Sharing Plan [Abstract]
401(k) Profit Sharing Plan	19.401(k) Profit Sharing Plan
	In furtherance of the Corporation’s belief that every employee should have the ability to accrue retirement benefits, the Corporation adopted the 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, which is available to all employees, including executive officers.  Employees are automatically entered in the plan on the first of the month following completion of 30 days of service to the Corporation and its subsidiaries.  Employees have the opportunity to opt out of participation or change their deferral amounts under the plan at any time. In addition to contributions by participants, the plan contemplates employer matching and the potential of discretionary contributions to the accounts of participants.  The Corporation believes that matching contributions encourage employees to participate and thereby plan for their post-retirement financial future.  Beginning with the 2008 plan year, the Corporation enhanced the match formula to 100% on the first 1% of salary reduction and 50% on the next 5% of salary reduction.  This match is accrued for all Participants, including executive officers, immediately upon entering the plan on the first day of the month following the completion of 30 days of employment.  The employee must be a plan participant and be actively employed on the last day of the plan year to share in the employer matching contribution, except in the case of death, disability or retirement of the participant.  Additionally, the Corporation accrued a non-elective employer contribution during 2014 for all employees other than employees who participate in the SERP and those employees meeting the age plus service requirement in the Pension Plan equal to; 4.5% of each employee’s salary, hired prior to January 1, 2010; and 4% of each employee’s salary hired since January 1, 2010, which will be paid in the first quarter of 2015.  Expense charged to operations for the 401(k) Plan was $1.0 million in 2014 and $.9 million in 2013.

	First United Corporation is subject to an informal agreement with the Reserve Bank which requires it to seek the prior approval of the Reserve Bank before making any dividend payment or other distribution on its capital securities or other securities that qualify as Tier 1 capital.  On November 15, 2010, First United Corporation, at the request of the Reserve Bank, deferred regular quarterly cash dividend payments on its Series A Preferred Stock.  Pursuant to the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, the deferral prohibits First United Corporation from paying dividends or other distributions on its common stock.  On December 15, 2010, First United Corporation, at the request of the Reserve Bank, elected to defer regular quarterly interest payments on its TPS Debentures, beginning with the payments that are due in March 2011.  This deferral likewise prohibited First United Corporation from paying any dividends or distributions on its capital securities during the deferral period.
	In February 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Reserve Bank to terminate this deferral by making the quarterly interest payments due to the Trusts in March 2014 and paying all deferred interest for prior quarters.  In April 2014, First United Corporation received approval from the Reserve Bank to terminate this deferral by making the quarterly dividend payment due to the holders of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock in May 2014 and paying all unpaid dividends that accrued during the suspension period. See Note 13 for additional information about the current state of the deferral.

Restrictions on Subsidiary Dividends, Loans or Advances	22.Restrictions on Subsidiary Dividends, Loans or Advances
	Federal and state banking regulations place certain restrictions on the amount of dividends paid and loans or advances made by the Bank to First United Corporation.  The total amount of dividends that may be paid at any date is generally limited to the retained earnings of the Bank, and loans or advances are limited to 10 % of the Bank’s capital stock and surplus on a secured basis.  In addition, dividends paid by the Bank to First United Corporation would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements.  At December 31, 2014, the Bank could have paid additional dividends of $9.4 million to First United Corporation within these limits.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bank is subject to an informal agreement with the FDIC and the Maryland Commissioner which requires the Bank to seek the prior approval of these regulators before making any dividend payment to First United Corporation.

	We are at times, and in the ordinary course of business, subject to legal actions.  Management believes that losses, if any, resulting from current legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
	Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of our customers. Loan commitments have credit risk essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and are subject to normal credit policies.  Commitments to extend credit generally have fixed expiration dates, may require payment of a fee, and contain cancellation clauses in the event of an adverse change in the customer’s credit quality.
	We do not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure other than the standby letters of credit issued by the Bank.  Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party to support contractual obligations and to ensure job performance.  Generally, the Bank’s letters of credit are issued with expiration dates within one year.  Historically, most letters of credit expire unfunded, and therefore, cash requirements are substantially less than the total commitment. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.  The Bank generally holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting letters of credit.  Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payment required by the letters of credit.  Management does not believe that the amount of the liability associated with guarantees under standby letters of credit outstanding at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 is material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	24.Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	The Corporation complies with the guidance of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. The Corporation also follows the guidance on matters relating to all financial instruments found in ASC Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments – Overall.
	Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants as of the measurement date.  Fair value is best determined by values quoted through active trading markets.  Active trading markets are characterized by numerous transactions of similar financial instruments between willing buyers and willing sellers. Because no active trading market exists for various types of financial instruments, many of the fair values disclosed were derived using present value discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques described below.  As a result, the Corporation’s ability to actually realize these derived values cannot be assumed.
	The Corporation measures fair values based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC Paragraph 820-10-35-37.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value under the hierarchy are as follows:
	Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets and liabilities.  This level is the most reliable source of valuation.
	Level 2: Quoted prices that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.  Level 2 inputs include inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates and yield curves at commonly quoted intervals, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default rates).  It also includes inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).  Several sources are utilized for valuing these assets, including a contracted valuation service, Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) evaluations and pricing services, and other valuation matrices.
	Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the valuation assumptions and not readily observable in the market (i.e. supported with little or no market activity).  Level 3 instruments are valued based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed, and consider risk premiums that a market participant would require.
	The level established within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  Transfers in and out of Level 1, 2 or 3 are recorded at fair value at the beginning of the reporting period.
	Management believes that the Corporation’s valuation techniques are appropriate and consistent with the techniques used by other market participants.  However, the use of different methodologies and assumptions could result in a different estimate of fair values at the reporting date.  The following valuation techniques were used to measure the fair value of assets in the table below which are measured on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2014.
	Investments – The investment portfolio is classified and accounted for based on the guidance of ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.
	The fair value of investments available-for-sale is determined using a market approach.  As of December 31, 2014, the U.S. Government agencies and treasuries, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, private label residential mortgage-backed securities, and municipal bonds segments are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.  Their fair values were determined based upon market-corroborated inputs and valuation matrices, which were obtained through third party data service providers or securities brokers through which we have historically transacted both purchases and sales of investment securities.
	The CDO segment, which consists of pooled trust preferred securities issued by banks, thrifts and insurance companies, is classified as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy.  At December 31, 2014, the Bank owned 17 pooled trust preferred securities with an amortized cost of $37.1 million and a fair value of $25.3 million.  The market for these securities at December 31, 2014 is not active and markets for similar securities are also not active.  The inactivity was evidenced first by a significant widening of the bid-ask spread in the brokered markets in which these securities trade and then by a significant decrease in the volume of trades relative to historical levels.  The new issue market is also inactive, as few CDOs have been issued since 2007.  There are currently very few market participants who are willing to transact for these securities.  The market values for these securities or any securities, other than those issued or guaranteed by the Treasury, are very depressed relative to historical levels.  Therefore, in the current market, a low market price for a particular bond may only provide evidence of stress in the credit markets in general rather than being an indicator of credit problems with a particular issue.  Given the conditions in the current debt markets and the absence of observable transactions in the secondary and new issue markets, management has determined that (i) the few observable transactions and market quotations that are available are not reliable for the purpose of obtaining fair value at December 31, 2014, (ii) an income valuation approach technique (i.e. present value) that maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs will be equally or more representative of fair value than a market approach, and (iii) the CDO segment is appropriately classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy because management determined that significant adjustments were required to determine fair value at the measurement date.
	Management utilizes an independent third party to prepare both the evaluations of other-than-temporary impairment as well as the fair value determinations for its CDO portfolio. Management does not believe that there were any material differences in the impairment evaluations and pricing between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
	The approach of the third party to determine fair value involves several steps, including detailed credit and structural evaluation of each piece of collateral in each bond, default, recovery and prepayment/amortization probabilities for each piece of collateral in the bond, and discounted cash flow modeling.  The discount rate methodology used by the third party combines a baseline current market yield for comparable corporate and structured credit products with adjustments based on evaluations of the differences found in structure and risks associated with actual and projected credit performance of each CDO being valued.  Currently, the only active and liquid trading market that exists is for stand-alone trust preferred securities.  Therefore, adjustments to the baseline discount rate are also made to reflect the additional leverage found in structured instruments.
	Derivative financial instruments (Cash flow hedge) – The Corporation’s open derivative positions are interest rate swaps that are classified as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. Open derivative positions are valued using externally developed pricing models based on observable market inputs provided by a third party and validated by management.   The Corporation has considered counterparty credit risk in the valuation of its interest rate swap assets.  Management does not believe that there is a significant concentration with the counterparty.
	Impaired loans – Loans included in the table below are those that are considered impaired with a specific allocation based upon the guidance of the loan impairment subsection of the Receivables Topic, ASC Section 310-10-35, under which the Corporation has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral.  Fair value consists of the loan balance less its valuation allowance and is generally determined based on independent third-party appraisals of the collateral or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds.  These assets are included as Level 3 fair values based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.
	Other real estate owned – Fair value of other real estate owned was based on independent third-party appraisals of the properties.  These values were determined based on the sales prices of similar properties in the approximate geographic area.  These assets are included as Level 3 fair values based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

The fair values disclosed may vary significantly between institutions based on the estimates and assumptions used in the various valuation methodologies.  The derived fair values are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and significant judgment. Therefore, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in the assumptions could significantly impact the derived estimates of fair value.  Disclosure of non-financial assets such as buildings as well as certain financial instruments such as leases is not required.  Accordingly, the aggregate fair values presented do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.
We use the following methods and assumptions in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and due from banks:  The carrying amounts as reported in the statement of financial condition for cash and due from banks approximate their fair values.
Interest bearing deposits in banks:  The carrying amount of interest bearing deposits approximates their fair values.
Restricted investment in Bank stock:  The carrying value of stock issued by the FHLB of Atlanta, ACBB and CBB approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the stock.
Loans (excluding impaired loans with specific loss allowances):  For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently or “in one year or less”, and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.  Fair values for fixed-rate loans that do not reprice frequently are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current market interest rates being offered on the various loan products.
Deposits:  The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, savings, and certain types of money market accounts, etc.) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts).  Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on the various certificates of deposit to the cash flow stream.
Short-term borrowings:  The carrying amount of short-term borrowings approximates their fair values.
Borrowed funds: The fair value of the Bank’s FHLB borrowings and First United Corporation’s TPS Debentures is calculated based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows, using rates currently existing for borrowings with similar remaining maturities.  The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase approximate their fair values.
Accrued interest:  The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates their fair values.
Off-balance-sheet financial instruments:  In the normal course of business, the Bank makes commitments to extend credit and issues standby letters of credit.  The Bank expects most of these commitments to expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  Due to the uncertainty of cash flows and difficulty in the predicting the timing of such cash flows, fair values were not estimated for these instruments.
The following table presents fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the statement of financial condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The actual carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments that are included in the statement of financial condition are as follows:

Derivative Financial Instruments [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	25.Derivative Financial Instruments
	As a part of managing interest rate risk, the Corporation entered into interest rate swap agreements to modify the re-pricing characteristics of certain interest-bearing liabilities. The Corporation has designated its interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges under the guidance of ASC Subtopic 815-30, Derivatives and Hedging – Cash Flow Hedges. Cash flow hedges have the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative, net of taxes, recorded in net accumulated other comprehensive income.
	In July 2009, the Corporation entered into three interest rate swap contracts totaling $20.0 million notional amount, hedging future cash flows associated with floating rate trust preferred debt.  As of December 31, 2014, swap contracts totaling $5.0 million notional amount remained, as the three-year $5.0 million contract matured on June 15, 2012 and the five-year $10.0 million contract matured on June 17, 2014.  The seven-year $5.0 million contract matures on June 17, 2016.  The fair value of the interest rate swap contracts was ($199) thousand and ($457) thousand at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and was reported in Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.  Cash in the amount of $850 thousand and $1.4 million was posted as collateral as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
	For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Corporation recorded an increase in the value of the derivatives of $258 thousand and the related deferred tax benefit of $103 thousand in net accumulated other comprehensive loss to reflect the effective portion of cash flow hedges.  ASC Subtopic 815-30 requires this amount to be reclassified to earnings if the hedge becomes ineffective or is terminated.  There was no hedge ineffectiveness recorded for the year ended December 31, 2014.  The Corporation does not expect any losses relating to these hedges to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.
	Interest rate swap agreements are entered into with counterparties that meet established credit standards and we believe that the credit risk inherent in these contracts is not significant as of December 31, 2014.

Assets and Liabilities Subject to Enforceable Master Netting Arrangements [Abstract]
Assets and Liabilities Subject to Enforceable Master Netting Arrangements	26.Assets and Liabilities Subject to Enforceable Master Netting Arrangements
	Interest Rate Swap Agreements (“Swap Agreements”)
	The Corporation has entered into interest rate swap agreements to modify the re-pricing characteristics of certain interest-bearing liabilities as a part of managing interest rate risk.  The swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, the fair value of the interest rate swap contracts is reported in Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.  The swap agreements were entered into with a third party financial institution.  The Corporation is party to master netting arrangements with its financial institution counterparty; however the Corporation does not offset assets and liabilities under these arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes.  The master netting arrangements provide for a single net settlement of all swap agreements, as well as collateral, in the event of default on, or termination of, any one contract.  Collateral, in the form of cash, is posted by the Corporation as the counterparty with net liability positions in accordance with contract thresholds.  See Note 25 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
	Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”)
	The Bank enters into agreements under which it sells interests in U.S. Securities to certain customers subject to an obligation to repurchase, and on the part of the customers to resell, such interests.  Under these arrangements, the Bank may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Bank to repurchase the assets.  As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements (i.e. secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities.  The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability in the consolidated statement of condition, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts.  There is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities.  In addition, as the Bank does not enter into reverse repurchase agreements, there is no such offsetting to be done with the repurchase agreements.  The right of setoff for a repurchase agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral would be used to settle the fair value of the repurchase agreement should the Bank be in default (i.e. fails to repurchase the U.S. Securities on the maturity date of the agreement).  The investment security collateral is held by a third party financial institution in the counterparty’s custodial account.
	The following table presents the liabilities subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or repurchase agreements as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2014
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) that require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.  Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the assessment  of other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) pertaining to investment securities, potential impairment of goodwill, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. For purposes of comparability, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 presentation.  Such reclassifications had no impact on net income or equity.
	The Corporation has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the statement of financial condition date of December 31, 2014 for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these financial statements as prescribed by ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation
	The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation include the accounts of First United Corporation, the Bank,  OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., OakFirst Loan Center, LLC and First OREO Trust.  All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
	First United Corporation determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether the entity is a voting interest entity or a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with GAAP.  Voting interest entities are entities in which the total equity investment at risk is sufficient to enable the entity to finance itself independently and provides the equity holders with the obligation to absorb losses, the right to receive residual returns and the right to make financial and operating decisions.  The Corporation consolidates voting interest entities in which it has 100%, or at least a majority, of the voting interest.  As defined in applicable accounting standards, a VIE is an entity that either (i) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (ii) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities.  A controlling financial interest in an entity exists when an enterprise has a variable interest, or a combination of variable interests that will absorb a majority of an entity’s expected losses, receive a majority of an entity’s expected residual returns, or both.  The enterprise with a controlling financial interest, known as the primary beneficiary, consolidates the VIE.
	The Corporation accounts for its investment in Liberty Mews, utilizing the effective yield method under guidance that applies specifically to investments in limited partnerships that operate qualified affordable housing projects.  Under the effective yield method, the investor recognizes tax credits as they are allocated and amortizes the initial cost of the investment to provide a constant effective yield over the period that tax credits are allocated to the investor. The effective yield is the internal rate of return on the investment, based on the cost of the investment and the guaranteed tax credits allocated to the investor.  The tax credit allocated, net of the amortization of the investment in the limited partnership, is recognized in the income statement as a component of income taxes attributable to continuing operations.
Correction of Prior Period Error	Correction of Prior Period Error
	During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company determined that earnings on a life insurance policy were not recorded properly since its purchase in 1986.  The cumulative impact of the error was $.5 million of cash surrender value that built up over time which should have been recorded to non-taxable other income, with an immaterial effect on any one period.  The Company determined that the insurance policy, of which the Company was the owner and beneficiary, had been purchased as a Key Man Whole Life Policy on a former Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The accumulated cash value on the policy was determined to be a Bank Owned Life Insurance asset.  Accordingly, the opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2013 has been adjusted by $.5 million.  Furthermore, the Bank Owned Life Insurance asset at December 31, 2013 on the Consolidated Statement of Condition was adjusted by $.5 million. The correction of this error also affected the Consolidated Statement of Operations and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2013. These corrections were not considered to be material to prior period financial statements.
	At the time the policy was purchased in 1986, the Company contractually agreed to pay an executive supplemental payment to the retired Chief Executive Officer which was later renewed for the longer of his or his spouse’s remaining life.   At that time, a liability for the obligation of the present value of the cash flows being paid should have been recorded.  After evaluating the liability which is scheduled to expire in 2016, management determined that based on the life expectancy calculation, the remaining liability at both December 31, 2014 and 2013  was immaterial and that as such, no liability would be recorded.
Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk	Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk
	Most of the Corporation’s relationships are with customers located in Western Maryland and Northeastern West Virginia.  At December 31, 2014, approximately 12%, or $99 million, of total loans were secured by real estate acquisition, construction and development projects, with $93 million performing according to their contractual terms and $7 million considered to be impaired based on management’s concerns about the borrowers’ ability to comply with present repayment terms. Of the $7 million in impaired loans, $3 million were classified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) performing in accordance with their modified terms, and $4 million were classified as non-performing loans at December 31, 2014.  Additionally, loans collateralized by commercial rental properties represent 11% of the total loan portfolio as of December 31, 2014.  Note 6 discusses the types of securities in which the Corporation invests and Note 7 discusses the Corporation’s lending activities.
Investments	Investments
	The investment portfolio is classified and accounted for based on the guidance of ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities.  Securities bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading account securities and reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in net gains/losses in other operating income. Securities purchased with the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and are recorded at amortized cost.  All other investment securities are classified as available-for-sale.  These securities are held for an indefinite period of time and may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for liquidity purposes as part of our overall asset/liability management strategy.  Available-for-sale securities are reported at market value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income included in consolidated statement of comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes.
	The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for the amortization of premiums to the first call date, if applicable, or to maturity, and for the accretion of discounts to maturity, or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security.  Such amortization and accretion is included in interest income from investments.  Interest and dividends are included in interest income from investments.  Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded using the specific identification method.
Restricted Investment in Bank Stock	Restricted Investment in Bank Stock
	Restricted stock, which represents required investments in the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) and Community Bankers Bank (“CBB”), is carried at cost and is considered a long-term investment.
	Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment in accordance with ASC Industry Topic 942, Financial Services – Depository and Lending, (942-325-35).  Management’s evaluation of potential impairment is based on its assessment of the ultimate recoverability of the cost of the restricted stock rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value.  The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability is influenced by criteria such as (i) the significance of the decline in net assets of the issuing bank as compared to the capital stock amount for that bank and the length of time this situation has persisted, (ii) commitments by the issuing bank to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of that bank, and (iii) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the issuing bank. Management has evaluated the restricted stock for impairment and believes that no impairment charge is necessary as of December 31, 2014.
	The Corporation recognizes dividends on a cash basis.  For the year ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, dividends of $290,677 and $199,500, respectively.
Loans and Interest and Fees on Loans	Loans
	Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or full repayment by the borrower are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balance, adjusted for any deferred fees or costs pertaining to origination. Loans that management has the intent to sell are reported at the lower of cost or fair value determined on an individual basis.
	The segments of the Bank’s loan portfolio are disaggregated to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance.  The commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. Non-owner occupied CRE loans, which include loans secured by non-owner occupied nonfarm nonresidential properties, generally have a greater risk profile than all other CRE loans, which include loans secured by farmland, multifamily structures and owner-occupied commercial structures.  The acquisition and development (“A&D”) loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes. One-to-four family residential construction loans are generally made to individuals for the acquisition of and/or construction on a lot or lots on which a residential dwelling is to be built.  All other A&D loans are generally made to developers or investors for the purpose of acquiring, developing and constructing residential or commercial structures.  These loans have a higher risk profile because the ultimate buyer, once development is completed, is generally not known at the time of the A&D loan.  The commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers.  The residential mortgage loan segment is further disaggregated into two classes: amortizing term loans, which are primarily first liens, and home equity lines of credit, which are generally second liens.  The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans (direct and indirect) and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts.
	Interest and Fees on Loans
	Interest on loans (other than those on non-accrual status) is recognized based upon the principal amount outstanding.   Loan fees in excess of the costs incurred to originate the loan are recognized as income over the life of the loan utilizing either the interest method or the straight-line method, depending on the type of loan.  Generally, fees on loans with a specified maturity date, such as residential mortgages, are recognized using the interest method.  Loan fees for lines of credit are recognized using the straight-line method.
	A loan is considered to be past due when a payment has not been received for 30 days past its contractual due date.  For all loan segments, the accrual of interest is discontinued when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more unless the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection.  All non-accrual loans are considered to be impaired.  Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance.  Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.  The Corporation’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.
	Generally, consumer installment loans are not placed on non-accrual status, but are charged off after they are 120 days contractually past due.  Loans other than consumer loans are charged-off based on an evaluation of the facts and circumstances of each individual loan.
Allowance for Loan Losses	Allowance for Loan Losses
	An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio.  The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.
	The Corporation’s methodology for determining the ALL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35, Receivables-Overall-Subsequent Measurement, for loans individually evaluated for impairment and ASC Subtopic 450-20, Contingencies-Loss Contingencies, for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, as well as the Interagency Policy Statements on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and other bank regulatory guidance.   The total of the two components represents the Bank’s ALL.
	The Corporation maintains an ALL on unfunded commercial lending commitments and letters of credit to provide for the risk of loss inherent in these arrangements.  The allowance is determined utilizing a methodology that is similar to that used to determine the ALL, modified to take into account the probability of a draw down on the commitment.  This allowance is reported as a liability on the balance sheet within accrued interest payable and other liabilities.  The balance in the liability account was $51,950 at December 31, 2014 and $49,400 at December 31, 2013.
Premises and Equipment	Premises and Equipment
	Land is carried at cost.  Premises and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The provision for depreciation for financial reporting has been made by using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 18 to 32 years for buildings and three to 20 years for furniture and equipment. Accelerated depreciation methods are used for income tax purposes.
Goodwill	Goodwill
	Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired in business combinations.  In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized but is subject to an annual impairment test.
Bank-Owned Life Insurance ("BOLI")	Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”)
	BOLI policies are recorded at their cash surrender values. Changes in the cash surrender values are recorded as other operating income.
Other Real Estate Owned	Other Real Estate Owned
	Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less the cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, with any losses charged to the ALL, establishing a new cost basis.  Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  Changes in the valuation allowance, sales gains and losses, and revenue and expenses from holding and operating properties are all included in net expenses from other real estate owned.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes
	First United Corporation and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.  Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, the deferred tax liability or asset is determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences) and is measured at the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is determined by the change in the net liability or asset for deferred taxes adjusted for changes in any deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
	ASC Topic 740, Taxes, provides clarification on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  We have not identified any income tax uncertainties.
	State corporate income tax returns are filed annually.  Federal and state returns may be selected for examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the states where we file, subject to statutes of limitations.  At any given point in time, the Corporation may have several years of filed tax returns that may be selected for examination or review by taxing authorities.  With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. Federal, State, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2010.
	Interest and penalties on income taxes are recognized as a component of income tax expense.
Defined Benefit Plans	Defined Benefit Plans
	The defined benefit pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits. Under the provisions of Topic 715, the defined benefit pension plan and the supplemental executive retirement plan are recognized as liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, and unrecognized net actuarial losses, prior service costs and a net transition asset are recognized as a separate component of other comprehensive loss, net of tax.  Actuarial gains and losses in excess of 10 percent of the greater of plan assets or the pension benefit obligation are amortized over a blend of future service of active employees and life expectancy of inactive participants.  Refer to Note 18 for a further discussion of the pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan obligations.
Statement of Cash Flows	Statement of Cash Flows
	Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash and due from banks and interest bearing deposits in banks in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
Trust Assets and Income	Trust Assets and Income
	Assets held in an agency or fiduciary capacity are not the Bank’s assets and, accordingly, are not included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition.  Income from the Bank’s trust department represents fees charged to customers and is recorded on an accrual basis.
Business Segments	Business Segments
	The Corporation operates in one segment, commercial banking, as defined by ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting.  The Corporation in its entirety is managed and evaluated on an ongoing basis by First United Corporation’s Board of Directors and executive management, with no division or subsidiary receiving separate analysis regarding performance or resource allocation.
Equity Compensation Plan	Equity Compensation Plan
	At the 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, First United Corporation’s shareholders approved the First United Corporation Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”), which authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, stock units, performance units, dividend equivalents, and other stock-based awards to employees or directors.  The Omnibus Plan reserved 185,000 shares of First United Corporation common stock for issuance under these awards.
	On June 18, 2008, the Board of Directors of First United Corporation adopted a Long-Term Incentive Program (the “LTIP”).  This program was adopted as a sub-plan of the Omnibus Plan to reward participants for increasing shareholder value, align executive interests with those of shareholders, and serve as a retention tool for key executives.  Under the LTIP, participants are granted shares of restricted common stock of First United Corporation.  The amount of an award is based on a specified percentage of the participant’s salary as of the date of grant.  These shares will vest if the Corporation meets or exceeds certain performance thresholds.  No grants of restricted stock were outstanding under the Omnibus Plan at December 31, 2014.
	The Corporation complies with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, in measuring and disclosing stock compensation cost.  The measurement objective in ASC Paragraph 718-10-30-6 requires public companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award.  The cost is recognized in expense over the period in which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period).  The performance-related shares granted in connection with the LTIP are expensed ratably from the date that the likelihood of meeting the performance measures is probable through the end of a three year vesting period.
	Stock-based awards were made to non-employee directors in May 2014 pursuant to First United Corporation’s director compensation policy.  Prior to May 2014, non-employee directors of First United Corporation received an annual retainer comprised of $10,000 in cash and fully-vested shares of common stock valued at $5,000.  Beginning in May 2014, this policy was changed so that each non-employee director now receives annual retainer comprised of $10,000 in cash and 1,000 fully-vested shares of common stock, and each director has the right to elect to receive additional shares of fully-vested common stock in lieu of some or all of the cash portion of his or her retainer.  In 2013 and 2014, a total of 11,304 and 17,779, respectively, fully-vested shares of common stock were issued to directors, which had a fair market value of $7.96 and $8.78 per share, respectively.  Director stock compensation expense was $88,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and $134,060 for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Stock Repurchases	Stock Repurchases
	Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, shares of capital stock that are repurchased are cancelled and treated as authorized but unissued shares.  When a share of capital stock is repurchased, the payment of the repurchase price reduces stated capital by the par value of that share (currently, $0.01 for common stock and $0.00 for preferred stock), and any excess over par value reduces capital surplus.  There were no stock repurchases in 2014 and 2013.

Immaterial error correction	The cumulative impact of the error was $.5 million of cash surrender value that built up over time which should have been recorded to non-taxable other income, with an immaterial effect on any one period. The Company determined that the insurance policy, of which the Company was the owner and beneficiary, had been purchased as a Key Man Whole Life Policy on a former Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The accumulated cash value on the policy was determined to be a Bank Owned Life Insurance asset.B Accordingly, the opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2013 has been adjusted by $.5 million. Furthermore, the Bank Owned Life Insurance asset at December 31, 2013 on the Consolidated Statement of Condition was adjusted by $.5 million. The correction of this error also affected the Consolidated Statement of Operations and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Available-for-sale, Securities in Unrealized Loss Positions, Qualitative Disclosure, Nature	Collateralized Debt Obligations b Available for Sale - The $12.9 million in unrealized losses greater than 12 months at December 31, 2014 relates to 14 pooled trust preferred securities that are included in the CDO portfolio. See Note 24 for a discussion of the methodology used by management to determine the fair values of these securities. Based upon a review of credit quality and the cash flow tests performed by the independent third party, management determined that there were no securities that had credit-related non-cash OTTI charges during 2014. The unrealized losses on the remaining securities in the portfolio are primarily attributable to continued depression in market interest rates, marketability, liquidity and the current economic environment.

Fair Value Measurements, Significant Assumptions	Significant assumptions used in the above methods include:Net income from our forward five-year operating budget, incorporating conservative growth and mix assumptions;A discount rate of 14.15% based on an internally derived cost of equity capital determined using the "build-up" method;A price to tangible book multiple of 1.18x, which was the median multiple of non-assisted transactions for non-assisted commercial bank acquisitions during the 12 months ended September 30, 2014 for selling companies headquartered in the Eastern regional area as compiled by Boenning & Scattergood, Inc.; andA capitalization rate of 8.15% (discount rate of 14.15% adjusted for a conservative growth rate of 6.0%).The resulting fair value of the income approach resulted in the fair value of First United Corporation exceeding the carrying value by 52%.B Management stressed the assumptions used in the analysis to provide additional support for the derived value.B This stress testing showed that (i) the discount rate could increase to 27% before the excess would be eliminated in the tangible multiple method, and (ii) the assumption of the tangible book multiple could decline to 0.59x and still result in a fair value in excess of book value.B Based on the results of the evaluation, management concluded that the recorded value of goodwill at December 31, 2014 was not impaired.B However, future changes in strategy and/or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded asset balances. Management will continue to evaluate goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and as events occur or circumstances change.

Defined Benefit Plan Disclosure [Line Items]
Defined Benefit Plan, Narrative Description of Basis Used to Determine Overall Expected Long-term Rate-of-Return on Assets Assumption		the 25-year average return on pension portfolio assets was 8.04%, exceeding the expected long-term return of 7.75% utilized for 2014. Considering that future equity returns are partially a function of current starting valuations and the general level of interest rates is at a historically low point, one could start to build a case for lower expected returns going forward. However, such a case would be muted, especially in the case of equities, by the fact that global equity returns averaged 5.9% for the period from 2001 through 2014, versus close to a 10% average return for the previous seventy-five years. Additionally, according to a recent Vanguard Global Economics Team white paper, over half of the volatility in expected returns is not explained by current valuations. As potential returns remain widely dispersed and expected returns are based on a time horizon that will likely exceed the timing of current concerns, it is considered appropriate to maintain the forward expected long-term rate of return of 7.75%.
