Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted FSP APB 14-1, which revises the accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (including partial cash settlement) upon conversion.FSP APB 14-1 requires issuers of convertible debt instruments within its scope to separately account for the liability and equity components of the instruments in a manner that reflects the issuers nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized.FSP APB 14-1 requires 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 issuers consolidated results of operations.The Company was required to apply this new standard to its 1.5% convertible debentures issued in 2004 and due in 2024 (1.5% Convertible Debentures) and its 2.5% convertible debentures issued in 2006 and due in 2026 (2.5% Convertible Debentures).
The bifurcation of the instruments was based on estimated market borrowing rates of 4.85% and 5.9%, respectively, for non-convertible debt instruments similar to the 1.5% and 2.5% Convertible Debentures.The discount assigned to the convertible debentures in order to result in interest expense equal to the nonconvertible debt borrowing rates mentioned above is being accreted to interest expense over an estimated five-year life of the convertible debentures.The estimated life is consistent with an option in the debentures allowing holders to require the Company to repurchase the debentures in whole or in part for principal plus accrued and unpaid interest five years following the date of issuance.Accordingly, as a result of the adoption of FSP APB 14-1, interest expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 increased by $4,025,000 and $8,171,000, respectively.The Company has also retrospectively revised certain amounts included in these financial statements for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 as follows:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2008
Six Months Ended June 30, 2008
Increase in interest expense $ 5,014 $ 10,336
Decrease in net income 3,166 6,527
