Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | (2) Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Codification. Effective July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) became the single official source of authoritative, nongovernmental generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States.The historical GAAP hierarchy was eliminated and the ASC became the only level of authoritative GAAP, other than guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.The codification was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009, except for certain nonpublic nongovernmental entities.The Company's accounting policies were not affected by the conversion to ASC.However, references to specific accounting standards in the footnotes to the Company's consolidated financial statements have been changed to refer to the appropriate section of ASC. Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion.On April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Cash Conversion Subsections of ASC Subtopic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options Cash Conversion (the Cash Conversion Subsections), which clarify the accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (including partial cash settlement) upon conversion.The Cash Conversion Subsections require issuers to account separately for the liability and equity components of certain convertible debt instruments in a manner that reflects the issuer's nonconvertible debt (unsecured debt) borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized.The Cash Conversion Subsections require bifurcation of a component of the debt, classification of that component in equity and the accretion of the resulting discount on the debt to be recognized as part of interest expense in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The Cash Conversion Subsections require retrospective application to the terms of instruments as they existed for all periods presented.The adoption of the Cash Conversion Subsections affects the accounting for the Company's 2.125% junior subordinated convertible debentures issued in December 2007 and due in December 2037.The retrospective application of this guidance affects the Company's fiscal years 2008 and 2009. The following table sets forth the effect of the retrospective application of the Cash Conversion Subsections on certain previously reported line items (in thousands, except per share data): Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income: Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 Six Months Ended September 30, 2008 As Reported As Adjusted As Reported As Adjusted Interest expense $ (5,582 ) $ (6,870 ) $ (11,983 ) $ (14,512 ) Income before income taxes $ 93,422 $ 92,134 $ 186,597 $ 184,068 Income tax provision $ 16,910 $ 16,414 $ 33,775 $ 32,801 Net income $ 76,512 $ 75,720 $ 152,822 $ 151,267 Basic net income per common share $ 0.42 $ 0.41 $ 0.83 $ 0.82 Diluted net income per commo |

Investments | (4)Investments The Company's investments are intended to establish a high-quality portfolio that preserves principal, meets liquidity needs, and delivers an appropriate yield in relationship to the Company's investment guidelines and market conditions.The following is a summary of available-for-sale and trading securities at September 30, 2009 (amounts in thousands): Available-for-sale Securities Adjusted Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Government agency bonds $ 398,086 $ 981 $ 55 $ 399,012 Municipal bonds 302,925 3,710 --- 306,635 Auction rate securities 17,259 --- --- 17,259 Corporate bonds 177,126 1,390 273 178,243 $ 895,396 $ 6,081 $ 328 $ 901,149 Trading Securities Adjusted Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Marketable equity securities $ 5 $ --- $ 1 $ 4 Auction rate securities 28,021 --- --- 28,021 Put option on auction rate securities 2,504 --- --- 2,504 $ 30,530 $ --- $ 1 $ 30,529 At September 30, 2009, the Company's available-for-sale and trading securities are presented on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as short-term investments of $822.9 million and long-term investments of $108.7 million. The Company has classified its strategic investments in publicly traded companies as trading securities. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company sold all but $4,000 of the $29.8million of trading securities that it owned at June 30, 2009.During the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized a gain in earnings of $1.9 million and $6.6million, respectively, on these trading securities.The Company had a net realized gain of $4.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively, on trading securities that it sold during the three and six months ended September 30, 2009. At September 30, 2009, $45.3 million of the fair value of the Company's investment portfolio was invested in auction rate securities (ARS).With the continuing liquidity issues in the global credit markets, the Company's ARS have experienced multiple failed auctions. In September2007 and February2008, auctions for $24.9 million and $34.8 million, respectively, of the original purchase value of the Company's investments in ARS first failed. While the Company continues to earn interest on these investments based on a pre-determined formula with spreads tied to particular interest rate indices, the estimated market value for these ARS no longer approximates the original purchase value. The $24.9 million in failed auctions have continued to fail through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.The fair value of the failed ARS of $17.3million has been estimated based on market information and estimates determined by management and could change significantly based on market conditions.

Fair Value Measurements | (5)Fair Value Measurements Accounting rules for fair value clarify that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the Company utilizes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2 Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2009 are as follows (amounts in thousands): Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Instruments (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Total Balance Assets Money market fund deposits $ 329,339 $ --- $ --- $ 329,339 Deposit accounts --- 211,706 --- 211,706 Government agency bonds --- 399,012 --- 399,012 Municipal bonds --- 306,635 --- 306,635 Auction rate securities --- --- 45,280 45,280 Put option on auction rate securities --- --- 2,504 2,504 Corporate bonds --- 178,243 --- 178,243 Marketable securities 4 --- --- 4 Total assets measured at fair value $ 329,343 $ 1,095,596 $ 47,784 $ 1,472,723 For Level 3 valuations, the Company estimated the fair value of its ARS based on the following: (i)the underlying structure of each security; (ii)the present value of future principal and interest payments discounted at rates considered to reflect current market conditions; (iii)consideration of the probabilities of default, auction failure, or repurchase at par for each period; and (iv) estimates of the recovery rates in the event of default for each security.The Company estimated the value of the put option on the ARS by evaluating the estimated cash flows before and after the receipt of the put option, discounted at rates reflecting the likelihood of default and lack of liquidity, or in the case of the payment of the par value to be paid by the broker at exercise of the put option, the counterparty credit risk.The estimated fair values that are categorized as Level 3 as well as the marketable securities and put options on publicly traded stock could change significantly based on future market conditions. Refer to Note 4 for further discussion of the Company's investments in ARS. The following table presents a reconciliation for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basi |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments | (6) Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amount of cash equivalents approximates fair value because their maturity is less than three months.The carrying amount of short-term and long-term investments approximates fair value as the securities are marked to market as of each balance sheet date with any unrealized gains and losses reported in stockholders' equity.The carrying amount of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of the amounts.The fair value of the Company's junior subordinated convertible debentures was $1,055.2 million at September 30, 2009, based on the trading price of the bonds, compared to the carrying value of $337.4 million.See Note 11 for additional information regarding the carrying value of the Company's junior subordinated convertible debentures. |

Income Taxes | (10)Income Taxes The provision for income taxes reflects tax on foreign earnings and federal and state tax on U.S. earnings.The Company had an effective tax rate of 14.4% for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 and 17.8% for the six-month period ended September 30, 2008.The Company's effective tax rate is lower than statutory rates in the U.S. due primarily to its mix of earnings in foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates. At March31, 2009, the Company had $70.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits.Unrecognized tax benefits increased by $5.5 million in the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared to the March 31, 2009 balances as a result of the accrual for uncertain tax positions and the accrual of deficiency interest on these positions. The Company files U.S. federal, U.S. state, and foreign income tax returns. For U.S. federal, and in general for U.S. state tax returns, the fiscal 2002 through fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2006 through fiscal 2009 tax years remain open for examination by tax authorities. For foreign tax returns, the Company is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to fiscal 2002. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on its estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional tax payments are more likely than not.The Company believes that it maintains adequate reserves to offset any potential income tax liabilities that may arise upon final resolution of matters for open tax years. The U.S. IRS is currently auditing the Company's fiscal years ended March 31, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007 and 2008.The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions taken on its tax returns and that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter. If such amounts ultimately prove to be unnecessary, the resulting reversal of such reserves would result in tax benefits being recorded in the period the reserves are no longer deemed necessary. If such amounts prove to be less than an ultimate assessment, a future charge to expense would be recorded in the period in which the assessment is determined. Although the timing of the resolution and/or closure on audits is highly uncertain, the Company does not believe it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits would materially change in the next 12months. |

Junior Subordinated Convertible Debentures | (11)2.125% Junior Subordinated Convertible Debentures The Company's $1.15 billion principal amount of 2.125% junior subordinated convertible debentures due December 15, 2037, are subordinated in right of payment to any future senior debt of the Company and are effectively subordinated in right of payment to the liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries.The debentures are convertible, subject to certain conditions, into shares of the Company's common stock at an initial conversion rate of 29.2783 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures, representing an initial conversion price of approximately $34.16 per share of common stock.As of September 30, 2009, none of the conditions allowing holders of the debentures to convert had been met.As a result of a cash dividend of $0.339 per share paid in September 2009, the conversion rate was adjusted to 32.1283 shares of common stock per $1,000 of principal amount of debentures, representing a conversion price of approximately $31.13 per share of common stock. As the debentures can be settled in cash upon conversion, for accounting purposes, the debentures were bifurcated into a liability component and an equity component, which are initially recorded at fair value. The carrying value of the equity component at September 30, 2009 and at March 31, 2009 was $822.4 million. The estimated fair value of the liability component of the debentures at the issuance date was $327.6 million, resulting in a debt discount of $822.4 million. The unamortized debt discount was $811.9 million at September 30, 2009 and $815.0 million at March 31, 2009. The carrying value of the debentures was $337.4 million at September 30, 2009 and $334.2 million at March 31, 2009. The remaining period over which the unamortized debt discount will be recognized as non-cash interest expense is 28.25 years. In the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized $1.6million and $3.1million, respectively, in non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount.In the three and six months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recognized $1.4million and $2.8million, respectively, in non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount.The Company recognized $6.1 million and $12.2 million of interest expense related to the 2.125% coupon on the debentures in the three and six months ended September30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The debentures also include certain embedded features related to the contingent interest payments, the Company making specific types of distributions (e.g., extraordinary dividends), the redemption feature in the event of changes in tax law, and penalty interest in the event of a failure to maintain an effective registration. These features qualify as derivatives and are bundled as a compound embedded derivative that is measured at fair value.The fair value of the derivative as of September 30, 2009 was $0.6million, compared to the value at March 31, 2009 of $0.5million, resulting in an increase of interest expense in the first six months of fiscal 2010 of $0.1million.The balance of the debentures on the Company's condens |
