From the Help Desk: How To Calculate Filing Fees
Each October, the SEC sets the filing fee rate for the fiscal year, which is the rate the SEC believes will result in collections that equal annual statutory target amounts for the SEC. For the SEC's 2017 fiscal year, this statutory target amount is $585 million, which resulted in a fee rate of $115.90 per million dollars. Throughout the year, the SEC may make adjustments to the fee rates in order to reach their target amount. The new fee rate became effective October 1, 2016 and should be used to calculate fees for filings until September 30, 2017 or the SEC adjusts the rate.

Legato Developers Corner #4: Recording Filing Changes
Building on what we did last week, this week we'll add more information to our EDGAR Filing log. Last week, we examined a script that automatically ran after a user in GoFiler uses the File Live, File Test or File Test As Agent menu function. This function created a filing log by adding a new row into a simple CSV file to record information. Now we'll add more information to the filing log from two sources: an SDK function to access data after GoFiler files the document and the Accession Notice file in the Mailbox directory.

Changes to Form N-MFP Go Into Effect October, 2016
In October, the SEC will implement changes to money market fund rules and forms. These changes concern the removal of certain references to credit ratings as well as amendments to the issuer diversification requirements. These changes were initially proposed in March 2011 and proposed a second time in July 2014, and implementing them will bring rule 2a-7, the principal rule that governs money market funds, and Form N-MFP, the form that money markets use to report their portfolios to the SEC, into alignment with the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act.

Rounding and XBRL Data Quality
In XBRL as in other data reporting systems, calculations show relationships among data. Since XBRL defines calculations in this way without validating the accuracy of their results, it is important to examine the results of calculations in XBRL filings. Many preparers may assume that when a calculation does not add up, it is due to rounding, but this may not be a safe assumption.

SEC Adopts Rules for the Disclosure of Payments by Resource Extraction Issuers
Rule 13q-1, which requires resource extractions issuers to disclose payments made to foreign governments, was adopted by the SEC on June 27, 2016. This rule was initially adopted in August 2012 but was vacated by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Since then, several other entities adopted transparency rules that are similar to Rule 13q-1, and the SEC re-proposed the rules for the payment disclosures back in December of last year. Now, the rule has been finalized and resource extraction issuers will be required to disclose the payments in XBRL format using Form SD starting with their fiscal year ending no earlier than September 30, 2018.

SEC Proposes Amendments to the Definition of "Smaller Reporting Company"
The SEC has proposed amendments that would increase the financial thresholds in the "smaller reporting company" definition. This would expand the number of companies that qualify for this category, which would make more companies eligible for certain existing scaled disclosures as provided in Regulation S-K and Regulation S-X. The intention is to promote capital formation and reduce compliance costs for smaller registrants while maintaining investor protections. Under the new definition, registrants with less than $250 million in public float and registrants with zero public float if their revenues were below $100 million in the previous year would both qualify as smaller reporting companies.
