In this webinar, you will learn practical tips for complying with the new guidelines for this complex area of accounting and reporting. Upon course completion, you will be able to analyze typical transactions to recognize their lease characteristics and account for and report them in compliance with the new rules.
Since FAS #13 was released in November of 1976, lease accounting has been very stable in the USA. However, in 2016 the FASB issued ASC 842 to replace those rules. They go into effect in 2019 for most companies. These new accounting standards change everything. Join us for a quick study of the new rules.
