EBay: Details Impact Of Derivatives Acctg Rule >EBAY

WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--EBay Inc. (EBAY) In its Form 10-K filed late Wednesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, eBay also said the adoption of SFAS 133, a new accounting standard related to derivatives, will result in a gain of about $650,000 in net income and a loss of $2.6 million in "other comprehensive income" in the quarter ending March 31.

Seems pretty straightforward <GG>
