Item 8.01. Other Events
Microsoft Corporation is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to reflect the retrospective adoption of an amendment to the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income” (“ASC 220”), with respect to the financial information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012.
As previously disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we adopted the amendment to ASC 220, which addressed the presentation of comprehensive income in financial statements. The new guidance eliminated the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. Instead, an entity is required to present either a continuous statement of net income and other comprehensive income or two separate but consecutive statements. Adoption of this new guidance resulted only in changes to presentation of our financial statements and does not change existing recognition and measurement requirements in our consolidated financial statements.
Following is a presentation of comprehensive income for each annual period in the three years ended June 30, 2012:
| (In millions) | ||||||||||||
| Year Ended June 30, | 2012 | 2011 | 2010 | |||||||||
| Net income |
$ | 16,978 | $ | 23,150 | $ | 18,760 | ||||||

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not reflect events occurring after we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012, and does not modify or update the disclosures therein in any way, other than to illustrate the adoption of the new accounting standard as described above.
