−Removed: We apply the equity method by initially recording these investments at cost, as equity method investments, subsequently adjusted for equity
−Removed: in earnings and cash distributions.
−Removed: We consider whether the
−Removed: fair value of our equity method investment has declined below its carrying value whenever adverse event or change in circumstance indicates
−Removed: that recorded value may not be recoverable.
−Removed: If we consider any decline to be other than temporary (based on various factors, including
−Removed: historical financial results and the overall health of the investee), then a write-down would be recorded to estimated fair value.
−Removed: We classify distributions
−Removed: received from equity method investments using the cumulative earnings approach.
−Removed: Distributions received are considered returns on the investment
−Removed: and classified as cash inflows from operating activities.
−Removed: If, however, the investor’s cumulative distributions received, less distributions
−Removed: received in prior periods determined to be returns of investment, exceeds cumulative equity in earnings recognized, the excess is considered
−Removed: a return of investment and is classified as cash inflows from investing activities.
