Accounting for Revenue under ASC 606 and Final PIR Report Findings (2 hours - late morning) - NEW! - Webcast

Overview

Revenue under FASB ASC 606 is one of the most important financial statement line items companies present to stakeholders. It is also one of the most complex standards under US GAAP Because of those two factors, there will always be a need for a comprehensive review of the accounting related to revenue recognition, including recently issued changes to this guidance, best practices, and ongoing case studies. Whether you are looking to improve your revenue recognition processes, better understand the accounting standards that guide recognition, or benchmark your financial statement disclosures against your peer group, this course will provide you with the information you need to apply Topic 606 at your firm and assess revenue recognition at your client. This course will review the basic Topic 606 five-step model and provide helpful case studies and examples. It will cover the presentation and disclosure requirements for Topic 606, including the private company disclosure relief available under Topic 606, and provide disclosure examples. Lastly, the course will discuss best practices, lessons learned, and ways to improve the business process when recognizing revenue going forward. Lastly, as the standard is fully implemented and the FASB’s Post-Implementation Review (PIR) Process has been completed, we will review the final Stage 3 report issued by the FASB and address its main findings and recommendations.
