SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Description of BusinessCBS Corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires, the "Company" or "CBS Corp.") is comprised of the following segments: Entertainment (CBS Television Network, CBS Television Studios, CBS Studios International, CBS Television Distribution, CBS Films and CBS Interactive), Cable Networks (Showtime Networks and CBS College Sports Network), Publishing (Simon Schuster), Local Broadcasting (CBS Television Stations and CBS Radio) and Outdoor (CBS Outdoor). Principles of ConsolidationThe consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CBS Corp. and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. Controlling interest is determined by majority ownership interest and the absence of substantive third party participating rights. Investments over which the Company has a significant influence or ownership of more than 20% but less than or equal to 50%, without a controlling interest, are accounted for under the equity method. Investments of 20% or less, over which the Company has no significant influence, are accounted for under the cost method if the fair value is not readily determinable and are accounted for as available for sale securities if the fair value is readily determinable. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. ReclassificationsCertain amounts reported for prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Use of EstimatesThe preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S.") requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and short-term (maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase) highly liquid investments, including money market funds, commercial paper and bank time deposits. Programming InventoryThe Company acquires rights to programming and produces programming to exhibit on its broadcast and cable networks, broadcast television and radio stations and in theaters. The costs incurred in acquiring and producing programs and theatrical films are capitalized and amortized over the license period or projected useful life of the programming. Program rights and the related liabilities are recorded at the gross amount of the liabilities when the license period has begun, the cost of the program is determinable, and the |

ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS | 2) ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS Acquisitions During June 2008, the Company completed the acquisition of CNET Networks, Inc. ("CNET") for $1.8billion. The results of CNET, subsequent to its acquisition, have been included in the Entertainment segment. On April23, 2008, the Company acquired International Outdoor Advertising Group ("IOA"), the leading out-of-home advertising company in South America, for $110.8million. IOA has been included as part of the Outdoor segment since the date of acquisition. On October5, 2007, the Company acquired SignStorey,Inc., a distributor of video programming and advertising content to retail stores, for $71.5million. SignStorey,Inc. has been renamed CBS Outernet and has been included as part of the Outdoor segment since the date of acquisition. Dispositions On September30, 2009, the Company completed the sale of four of its owned radio stations in Portland, Oregon to Alpha Broadcasting for $40.0million. In connection with the sale, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $31.7million to reduce the carrying value of intangible assets and the allocated goodwill. On April1, 2009, the Company completed a transaction with Clear Channel Communications,Inc. for the swap of five of its mid-size market stations in Baltimore, Portland, Sacramento and Seattle, for two radio stations in Houston, a top 10 radio market. On March6, 2009, the Company completed the sale of three of its owned radio stations in Denver to Wilks Broadcasting for $19.5million. During 2008, in connection with these two transactions, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $62.0million to reduce the carrying value of intangible assets and the allocated goodwill. During June 2008, the Company sold its 37% investment in Sundance Channel for $170.0million resulting in a pre-tax gain of $129.8million included in "Other Items, net" in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December31, 2008. On January10, 2008, the Company completed the sale of seven of its owned television stations in Austin, Salt Lake City, Providence and West Palm Beach to Cerberus Capital Management,L.P. for $185.0million.

12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2009 USD / shares | |
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements | |
GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS | 3) GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS The Company performs an annual fair value-based impairment test of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, primarily comprised of FCC licenses, during the fourth quarter and also between annual tests if an event occurs or if circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or an indefinite-lived intangible asset below its book value. Based on the 2009 annual impairment test, the estimated fair value of each of the Company's reporting units is greater than its carrying value. The estimated fair value of each reporting unit is computed principally based upon the present value of future cash flows (Discounted Cash Flow Method) and both the traded and transaction values of comparable businesses (Market Comparable Method). The Discounted Cash Flow Method and Market Comparable Method resulted in substantially equal fair values. The Discounted Cash Flow Method is based on the Company's estimated long-range growth rates for the projection period plus the residual value of the business at the end of the projection period. The residual value is estimated based on a perpetual nominal growth rate between 2.0% and 3.5%. The present value of the future cash flows during the projection period and the estimated residual value is discounted using the average of the weighted average cost of capital of comparable entities. These discount rates range from 8.5% to 11%. As a result of the Company's annual impairment test of FCC licenses, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $178.3million at the Local Broadcasting segment to reduce the carrying value of FCC licenses in certain radio markets. This impairment resulted from reductions in projections for advertising revenues due to a weakened radio advertising marketplace. FCC licenses are tested for impairment at the geographic market level by comparing the fair value of the intangible asset by market with its book value. The estimated fair value of FCC licenses is computed using the Greenfield Discounted Cash Flow Method ("Greenfield Method"), which attempts to isolate the income that is attributable to the license alone. The Greenfield Method is based upon modeling a hypothetical start-up and building it up to a normalized operation that, by design, lacks inherent goodwill and whose other assets have essentially been added as part of the build-up process. In order to estimate the revenues of a start-up operation, the total market advertising revenue trend in the subject market is estimated based on recent industry projections. Also in 2009, in connection with the sale of certain of its radio stations, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $31.7million to reduce the carrying value of FCC licenses by $20.7million and the allocated goodwill by $11.0million. (See Note2.) During the third quarter of 2008, the Company performed an interim impairment test as a result of its assessment of factors, including the continuation of adverse market conditions, which affected the Company's market value and trading multiples for entities within the Company's industry, as well |

RESTRUCTURING CHARGES | 4) RESTRUCTURING CHARGES During the year ended December31, 2009, in a continued effort to reduce its cost structure, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $22.8million, reflecting $20.8million of severance costs associated with the elimination of positions and $6.7million of contract termination and other associated costs, partially offset by the reversal of $4.7million as a result of changes in estimates of previously established restructuring accruals. During the year ended December31, 2008, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $136.7million, which reflected $127.5million of severance costs and $9.2million of contract termination and other associated costs.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | 9) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company's carrying value of financial instruments approximates fair value, except for differences with respect to the notes and debentures. At December31, 2009 and 2008, the carrying value of the senior debt was $6.91billion and $6.90billion, respectively, and the fair value, which is estimated based on quoted market prices and includes accrued interest, was $7.25billion and $5.47billion, respectively. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to modify its exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments unless there is an underlying exposure and, therefore, the Company does not hold or enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. Foreign exchange forward contracts have principally been used to hedge projected cash flows, generally within the next twelve months, in such currencies as the British Pound, the Euro, the Canadian Dollar and the Australian Dollar. The Company designates forward contracts used to hedge projected future television and film production costs as cash flow hedges. Gains or losses on the effective portion of designated cash flow hedges are initially recorded in other comprehensive income ("OCI") and reclassified to the statement of operations when the hedged item is recognized. Additionally, the Company enters into non-designated forward contracts to hedge non-U.S. dollar denominated cash flows. The change in fair value of the non-designated contracts is included in "Other items, net" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At December31, 2009, the notional amount of all foreign currency contracts was $97.1million, of which $2.1million relates to the hedging of future production costs and $95.0million represents hedges of expected foreign currency cash flows. At December31, 2008, the notional amount of all foreign currency contracts was $95.2million, which represents hedges of expected foreign currency cash flows. All of the Company's long-term debt has been issued under fixed interest rate agreements. The Company had entered into fixed-to-floating rate swap agreements for a portion of this debt, which were designated as fair value hedges. In November 2009, prior to maturity, the Company settled $350.0million notional amount of interest rate swaps outstanding and received $9.9million in cash. In December 2008, prior to maturity, the Company settled $1.0billion notional amount of interest rate swaps outstanding and received $88.4million in cash. The Company did not have any interest rate swaps outstanding at December31, 2009 and 2008. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and credit quality of, the financial institutions that are counterparties to its financial instruments. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the agreements. However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Company's receivables do not represent significant concentrations of credit risk at December31, 2009 and 2008, due to the wide variety of customers, markets |

PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS | 12) PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS The Company and certain of its subsidiaries sponsor qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans, principally non-contributory, covering eligible employees. The benefits for certain plans are based primarily on an employee's years of service and average pay near retirement. Benefits under other plans are based primarily on an employee's pay for each year that the employee participates in the plan. Participating employees are vested in the plans after five years of service. The Company funds its pension plans in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Pension Protection Act of 2006, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the applicable rules and regulations. During 2009 and 2008, the Company made discretionary contributions of $20.0million and $120.0million, respectively, to pre-fund its qualified pension plans. Plan assets consist principally of marketable bonds, equity securities and U.S. government securities. The Company's Common Stock represents approximately .6% and .4% of the plan assets' fair values at December31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In addition, the Company sponsors health and welfare plans that provide certain postretirement health care and life insurance benefits to eligible retired employees and their covered dependents. Eligibility is based in part on certain age and service requirements at the time of their retirement. Most of the plans are contributory and contain cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance which are adjusted annually. Claims are paid primarily by the Company's own funds. The Company uses a December31 measurement date for all pension and other postretirement benefit plans.

The fair value of foreign currency hedges is determined based on the present value of future cash flows using observable inputs including foreign currency exchange rates. The fair value of deferred compensation is determined based on the fair value of the investments elected by employees. The Company's assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis during 2009 consist of goodwill and intangible assets for which non-cash impairment charges were recorded to reduce the book value of the asset to its fair value as determined using other non-observable inputs (Level3). In connection with its 2009 annual impairment test, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $178.3million to reduce the carrying value of FCC licenses in certain radio markets to their respective fair value. The estimated fair value is determined principally based on the present value of future cash flows. (See Note3.) Also in 2009, in connection with the sale of certain of its radio stations, the Company recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $31.7million to reduce the carrying value of FCC licenses by $20.7million and the allocated goodwill by $11.0million to their respective fair value, which was determined based on |

The Company's operating segments have been determined in accordance with the Company's internal management structure, which is organized based upon products and services.

As a result, the Company realigned its operating segments. Prior period results have been reclassified to conform to this presentation.
