Basis of Presentation: The condensed consolidated financial statements of McKesson Corporation (“McKesson,” the “Company,” or “we” and other similar pronouns) include the financial statements of all wholly-owned subsidiaries and majority-owned or controlled companies. We also evaluate our ownership, contractual and other interests in entities to determine if they are variable interest entities (“VIEs”), if we have a variable interest in those entities and the nature and extent of those interests. These evaluations are highly complex and involve judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions based on available historical information and management’s judgment, among other factors. Based on our evaluations, if we determine we are the primary beneficiary of such VIEs, we consolidate such entities into our financial statements. The consolidated VIEs are not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements. | |
To prepare the financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of these financial statements and income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. | |
The results of operations for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements, accounting policies and financial notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 previously filed with the SEC on May 7, 2013 (“2013 Annual Report”). | |
Certain prior period amounts, which primarily relate to discontinued operations, have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Refer to Financial Note 3, “Discontinued Operations,” for more information. | |
The Company’s fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. Unless otherwise noted, all references to a particular year shall mean the Company’s fiscal year. | |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | |
Balance Sheet Offsetting: In the first quarter of 2014, we adopted disclosure guidance on a retrospective basis related to the offsetting of assets and liabilities. The guidance requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting assets and liabilities for derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific GAAP criteria or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements. | |
Comprehensive Income: In the first quarter of 2014, we adopted disclosure guidance on a prospective basis related to the reporting of amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI”). The guidance requires disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI by component. In addition, an entity is required to present either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements. | |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted | |
Cumulative Translation Adjustments: In March 2013, amended guidance was issued for a parent’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of certain subsidiaries or group of assets within a foreign entity or of an investment in a foreign entity. The amended guidance requires the release of any cumulative translation adjustment into net income only upon complete or substantially complete liquidation of a controlling interest in a subsidiary or a group of assets within a foreign entity. Also, it requires the release of all or a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment to net income in case of sale of an equity method investment that is a foreign entity. The amended guidance is applicable to us effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this amended guidance on our consolidated financial statements. |

On February 22, 2013, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of PSS World Medical, Inc. (“PSS World Medical”) of Jacksonville, Florida for $29.00 per share plus the assumption of PSS World Medical’s debt, or approximately $1.9 billion in aggregate, consisting of cash consideration of $1.3 billion, net of cash acquired, and the assumption of long-term debt with a fair value of $0.6 billion. The cash paid at acquisition was funded from cash on hand and the issuance of long-term debt. PSS World Medical markets and distributes medical products and services throughout the United States. The acquisition of PSS World Medical expands our existing Medical-Surgical business. | ||||||||||||

During the first six months of 2014, the fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of PSS World Medical as of the acquisition date were refined. This refinement did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations, balance sheets or cash flows in any period and, therefore, we have not retrospectively adjusted our financial statements. These amounts are subject to change within the measurement period as our fair value assessments are finalized. Financial results for PSS World Medical have been included in the results of operations within our Medical-Surgical distribution and services business, which is part of our Distribution Solutions segment since the date of acquisition. | ||||||||||||
On April 6, 2012, we purchased the remaining 50% ownership interest in our corporate headquarters building located in San Francisco, California, for $90 million, which was funded from cash on hand. We previously held a 50% ownership interest and were the primary tenant in this building. This transaction was accounted for as a step acquisition, which required that we re-measure our previously held 50% ownership interest to fair value and record the difference between the fair value and carrying value as a gain in the consolidated statements of operations. The re-measurement to fair value resulted in a non-cash pre-tax gain of $81 million ($51 million after-tax), which was recorded as a gain on business combination within Corporate operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations during the first quarter of 2013. | ||||||||||||
The total fair value of the net assets acquired was $180 million, which was allocated as follows: building and improvements of $113 million and land of $58 million, with the remainder allocated for settlement of our pre-existing lease and lease intangible assets. The fair value of the building and improvements was determined based on current market replacement costs less depreciation and unamortized tenant improvement costs, as well as, other relevant market information, which are considered to be Level 3 inputs under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance. The building and improvements have a weighted average useful life of 30 years. The fair value of the land was determined using comparable sales of land within the surrounding market, which is considered to be a Level 2 input. | ||||||||||||
During the last two years, we also completed a number of smaller acquisitions within both of our operating segments. Financial results for our business acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates. Purchase prices for our business acquisitions have been allocated based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. | ||||||||||||
Goodwill recognized for our business acquisitions is generally not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. However, if we acquire the assets of a company, the goodwill may be deductible for tax purposes. The pro forma results of operations for our business acquisitions and the results of operations for these acquisitions since the acquisition date have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements on either an individual or an aggregate basis. |

In September 2013, we completed the sale of our 49% equity interest in Nadro, S.A. de C.V. (“Nadro”). Under the terms of the agreement, we received $41 million in total cash consideration. There was no material gain or loss on the disposition based on the adjusted net realizable value of the investment at the time of the sale. Prior to the sale, our investment in Nadro was accounted for under the equity method of accounting within our Distribution Solutions segment. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes |
As of September 30, 2013, we had $567 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $411 million would reduce income tax expense and the effective tax rate, if recognized. During the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that audit resolutions and the expiration of statutes of limitations could potentially reduce our unrecognized tax benefits by up to $173 million. However, this amount may change because we continue to have ongoing negotiations with various taxing authorities throughout the year. | |
We have received tax assessments of $98 million from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) relating to 2003 through 2006. We disagree with a substantial portion of the tax assessments primarily relating to transfer pricing. We are pursuing administrative relief through the appeals process. We have also received assessments from the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) for a total of $209 million related to transfer pricing for 2003 through 2008. Payments of most of the assessments to the CRA have been made to stop the accrual of interest. We have appealed the assessment for 2003 to the Tax Court of Canada and have filed a notice of objection for 2004 through 2008. The trial between McKesson Canada Corporation and the CRA, argued in the Tax Court of Canada, concluded in early February 2012, and we are waiting for the decision. We continue to believe in the merits of our tax positions and that we have adequately provided for any potential adverse results relating to these examinations in our financial statements. However, the final resolution of these issues could result in a significant increase or decrease to income tax expense. | |
The IRS is currently examining our U.S. corporation income tax returns for 2007 through 2009. In nearly all jurisdictions, the tax years prior to 2003 are no longer subject to examination. | |
We report interest and penalties on tax deficiencies as income tax expense. At September 30, 2013, before any tax benefits, our accrued interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits amounted to $137 million. We recognized an income tax expense of $3 million and $6 million, before any tax benefit, related to interest and penalties in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the second quarter and first six months of 2014. |

Accounts Receivable Sales Facility | |
In May 2013, we extended our existing accounts receivable sales facility (the “Facility”) for a six month period under terms substantially similar to those previously in place. The committed balance of the Facility is $1.35 billion, although from time-to-time, the available amount of the Facility may be less than $1.35 billion based on accounts receivable concentration limits and other eligibility requirements. The extended Facility will expire in November 2013. We anticipate renewing the Facility before expiration. | |
During the first six months of 2014, we borrowed and repaid $150 million of short-term borrowings under the Facility. At September 30, 2013, there were no short-term borrowings and related securitized accounts receivable outstanding under the Facility. During the first quarter of 2013, we repaid $400 million of short-term borrowings under the Facility using cash on hand. During the second quarter of 2013, there were a total of $1,125 million of short-term borrowings under the Facility, all of which were repaid in the same quarter using cash on hand. At March 31, 2013, there were no short-term borrowings and related securitized accounts receivable outstanding under the Facility. | |
The Facility contains requirements relating to the performance of the accounts receivable and covenants relating to the Company. If we do not comply with these covenants, our ability to use the Facility may be suspended and repayment of any outstanding balances under the Facility may be required. At September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with all covenants. | |
Revolving Credit Facility | |
We have a syndicated $1.3 billion five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility, which expires in September 2016. Borrowings under this facility bear interest based upon either the London Interbank Offered Rate or a prime rate. There were no borrowings under this facility during the first six months of 2014 and 2013. As of September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, there were no amounts outstanding under this facility. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Hedging Activities | Hedging Activities |
In 2012, we entered into a number of forward contracts to hedge Canadian dollar denominated cash flows. These contracts mature over a period of eight years, ending in 2020, and have been designated for hedge accounting. Accordingly, changes in the fair values of these contracts are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. At September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the gross notional values of these contracts, designated for hedge accounting, were $503 million. No amounts were reclassified to earnings in the quarters and six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. | |
In the first quarter of 2013, we settled a forward contract to hedge British pound denominated cash flows with a gross notional value of $151 million. In the third quarter of 2013, we entered into an additional forward contract to hedge a separately identifiable Canadian dollar denominated cash flow with a notional value of $177 million. This contract was renewed and was settled on its maturity in the first quarter of 2014. In the second quarter of 2014, we entered into and settled a forward contract to hedge Mexican peso denominated cash flows related to our sale of Nadro with a gross notional value of $41 million. None of these contracts were designated for hedge accounting and, accordingly, changes in the fair values of these contracts were recorded directly in earnings. Amounts recorded to earnings were not material for the quarters and six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. At September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the gross notional value of the these contracts were nil and $172 million. | |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements |
At September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities receivables, drafts and accounts payable and other current liabilities generally approximated their estimated fair values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. | |
Our long-term debt and other financing are carried at amortized cost. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these liabilities were $4.9 billion and $5.2 billion at September 30, 2013 and $4.9 billion and $5.5 billion at March 31, 2013. The estimated fair values of our long-term debt and other financing were determined using quoted market prices in a less active market and other observable inputs from available market information, which are considered to be Level 2 inputs, and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future. | |
Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 included investments in money market funds, time deposits and repurchase agreements of $2.6 billion and $1.6 billion, which are reported at fair value. The fair value of these investments was determined by using quoted prices for identical investments in active markets, which are considered to be Level 1 inputs under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance. The carrying value of all other cash equivalents approximates their fair value due to their relatively short-term nature. | |
Fair values of our forward foreign currency derivatives were determined using quoted market prices of similar instruments in an active market and other observable inputs from available market information. These inputs are considered Level 2 under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance, and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future. The fair value of these derivative contracts, which are subject to a master netting arrangement under certain circumstances, is presented on a gross basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Fair values for our foreign currency hedges were not material at September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013. | |
There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the quarters and six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | ||||||||
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities | Commitments and Contingent Liabilities | |||||||
In addition to commitments and obligations in the ordinary course of business, we are subject to various claims, other pending and potential legal actions for damages, investigations relating to governmental laws and regulations and other matters arising out of the normal conduct of our business. As described below, many of these proceedings are at preliminary stages and many seek an indeterminate amount of damages. | ||||||||
When a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable, we record a liability in the amount of our best estimate for the ultimate loss. However, the likelihood of a loss with respect to a particular contingency is often difficult to predict and determining a meaningful estimate of the loss or a range of loss may not be practicable based on the information available and the potential effect of future events and decisions by third parties that will determine the ultimate resolution of the contingency. Moreover, it is not uncommon for such matters to be resolved over many years, during which time relevant developments and new information must be reevaluated at least quarterly to determine both the likelihood of potential loss and whether it is possible to reasonably estimate a range of possible loss. When a loss is probable but a reasonable estimate cannot be made, disclosure of the proceeding is provided. | ||||||||
Disclosure also is provided when it is reasonably possible that a loss will be incurred or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded provision. We review all contingencies at least quarterly to determine whether the likelihood of loss has changed and to assess whether a reasonable estimate of the loss or range of loss can be made. As discussed above, development of a meaningful estimate of loss or a range of potential loss is complex when the outcome is directly dependent on negotiations with or decisions by third parties, such as regulatory agencies, the court system and other interested parties. Such factors bear directly on whether it is possible to reasonably estimate a range of potential loss and boundaries of high and low estimates. | ||||||||
Significant developments in previously reported proceedings and in other litigation and claims, since the filing of our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013, are set out below. Unless otherwise stated, we are currently unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses for the unresolved proceedings described below. Should any one or a combination of more than one of these proceedings be successful, or should we determine to settle any or a combination of these matters, we may be required to pay substantial sums, become subject to the entry of an injunction or be forced to change the manner in which we operate our business, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations. | ||||||||
I. Average Wholesale Price Litigation and Claims | ||||||||
The following matters involve a benchmark referred to as Average Wholesale Price (“AWP”), which is utilized by some public and private payers to calculate a portion of the amount that pharmacies and other providers are reimbursed for dispensing certain covered prescription drugs. The plaintiff in each of these cases alleges that in late 2001 the Company and First DataBank, Inc. (“FDB”), a publisher of pharmaceutical pricing information, conspired to improperly raise the published AWP for certain prescription drugs, and that this alleged conduct resulted in higher drug reimbursement payments. | ||||||||
The Ohio Action | ||||||||
On July 22, 2013, the Company filed an answer denying the allegations in the previously reported action filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California by several Ohio health benefit programs against the Company, Ohio v. McKesson Corporation, (CV-13-2000-SI). | ||||||||
Shareholder Derivative Action | ||||||||
On July 26, 2013, the court entered an order approving dismissal of the previously reported shareholder derivative action filed in California Superior Court, San Francisco County, by a shareholder purportedly on behalf of the Company against certain past and present officers and directors of the Company, Daniel Himmel v. John Hammergren et al., (12-524074). | ||||||||
The Arizona Action | ||||||||
On September 27, 2013, the Company reached a settlement agreement with the State of Arizona to resolve the previously reported action filed in Arizona state court by the State of Arizona against the Company, State of Arizona ex rel. Thomas Horne v. McKesson Corporation, (No. CV2012-013707). This settlement is subject to execution of a written settlement acceptable to the Company and the State of Arizona. | ||||||||
The Virginia Action | ||||||||
On October 17, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the Commonwealth of Virginia in the previously reported action filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California by the Commonwealth of Virginia against the Company and two of its past and present employees, Commonwealth of Virginia v. McKesson Corporation, et al., (C11-02782-SI). Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the parties will file with the court a stipulated dismissal with prejudice of the Virginia Action. | ||||||||
The Arizona Administrative Proceeding | ||||||||
On October 21, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (“AHCCCS”) in the previously reported administrative proceeding commenced by AHCCCS against the Company. | ||||||||
The Company has a reserve relating to AWP public entity claims, which is reviewed at least quarterly and whenever events or circumstances indicate changes, including consideration of the pace and progress of discussions relating to potentially resolving other public entity claims. Following our most recent review of the reserve for estimated probable losses from current and possible future public entity AWP claims, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $15 million and $35 million (total of $50 million) during the first and second quarters of 2014. The Company recorded pre-tax charges of $16 million and $44 million (total of $60 million) during the first and second quarters of 2013. Pre-tax charges relating to changes in the Company’s AWP litigation reserve, including accrued interest, are recorded in our Distribution Solutions segment. The Company’s AWP litigation reserve is included in other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. In view of the uncertainties of the timing and outcome of this type of litigation, it is possible that the ultimate costs of these matters may exceed or be less than the reserve. | ||||||||
The following is the activity related to the AWP litigation reserve for the first six months of 2014 and 2013: | ||||||||

On October 24, 2013, we entered into (i) a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Franz Haniel & Cie. GmbH (“Haniel”) and (ii) a Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”) with Celesio AG (“Celesio”). Celesio’s issued and outstanding share capital is currently 50.01% owned by Haniel. Celesio is an international wholesale and retail company and provider of logistics and services to the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors. Celesio operates in 14 countries and is headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany. | |
Under the terms of the SPA, McKesson will acquire a majority stake in Celesio for €23 per share per share from Haniel and launch parallel voluntary public tender offers for the remaining shares and outstanding convertible bonds of Celesio (the “Tender Offers”). The total transaction, including the assumption of Celesio’s outstanding debt, is valued at approximately €6.1 billion (or, assuming a currency exchange ratio of $1.35/1€, approximately $8.3 billion). The SPA may be terminated by either party if certain conditions are not met. In particular, if applicable antitrust approval is not received by the closing date, or if we do not acquire at least 75% of Celesio’s shares on a fully diluted basis, either Haniel or McKesson may terminate the agreement. We intend to complete the acquisition of the Celesio shares held by Haniel and the Tender Offers (together, the “Acquisition”) by utilizing the below described senior bridge term loan and cash on hand. | |
In connection with the Acquisition, we entered into a $5.5 billion 364-day unsecured Senior Bridge Term Loan Agreement (the “Bridge Loan Agreement”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Bridge Loan Agreement, up to two borrowings of term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $5.5 billion will be made available to us at our request to: (i) pay the Acquisition consideration; (ii) repay certain indebtedness of Celesio and its subsidiaries outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition; and (iii) pay transaction costs associated with the Acquisition. The Bridge Loan Agreement contains terms substantially similar to those contained in our existing revolving credit facility and, similar to the revolving credit facility, borrowing under the Bridge Loan Agreement generally bears interest based upon either a prime rate or the London Interbank Offering Rate. In addition, the Bridge Loan Agreement requires that we maintain a debt to capital ratio of no greater than 65% throughout the Bridge Loan Agreement. We expect that we will refinance all or part of the outstanding amounts under the Bridge Loan Agreement with longer-term financing prior to the end of the Bridge Loan Agreement’s 364-day term. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation: The condensed consolidated financial statements of McKesson Corporation (“McKesson,” the “Company,” or “we” and other similar pronouns) include the financial statements of all wholly-owned subsidiaries and majority-owned or controlled companies. We also evaluate our ownership, contractual and other interests in entities to determine if they are variable interest entities (“VIEs”), if we have a variable interest in those entities and the nature and extent of those interests. These evaluations are highly complex and involve judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions based on available historical information and management’s judgment, among other factors. Based on our evaluations, if we determine we are the primary beneficiary of such VIEs, we consolidate such entities into our financial statements. The consolidated VIEs are not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements. |
Use Of Estimates | To prepare the financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of these financial statements and income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. |
Reclassifications | Certain prior period amounts, which primarily relate to discontinued operations, have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Refer to Financial Note 3, “Discontinued Operations,” for more information. |
Fiscal Period | The Company’s fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. Unless otherwise noted, all references to a particular year shall mean the Company’s fiscal year. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Balance Sheet Offsetting: In the first quarter of 2014, we adopted disclosure guidance on a retrospective basis related to the offsetting of assets and liabilities. The guidance requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting assets and liabilities for derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific GAAP criteria or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements. |
Comprehensive Income: In the first quarter of 2014, we adopted disclosure guidance on a prospective basis related to the reporting of amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI”). The guidance requires disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI by component. In addition, an entity is required to present either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements. | |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted | Cumulative Translation Adjustments: In March 2013, amended guidance was issued for a parent’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of certain subsidiaries or group of assets within a foreign entity or of an investment in a foreign entity. The amended guidance requires the release of any cumulative translation adjustment into net income only upon complete or substantially complete liquidation of a controlling interest in a subsidiary or a group of assets within a foreign entity. Also, it requires the release of all or a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment to net income in case of sale of an equity method investment that is a foreign entity. The amended guidance is applicable to us effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this amended guidance on our consolidated financial statements. |
