FEI’s Committee on Corporate Reporting has an engaged Working Group that focuses and monitors the latest developments in Leases (Topic 842). Shawn Husband, Chair of the Leases Working Group, will lead a discussion and debrief of the Working Group’s most recent meeting and participate in Q&A on technical accounting, process, implementation and systems.

Topics covered at the meeting include:

  • Latest topics addressed by the largest accounting firms:
    • Lessor general allowances for doubtful accounts for lease receivables;
    • Business acquisition topics such as asset purchases as opposed to a business combination, acquiring companies that have not yet adopted by companies that have, and acquisitions where companies made different elections in adoption;
    • Asset abandonment implications when ROU asset is not impaired.
  • FASB invitation to discuss potential revisions to standard or matters requiring clarity or education.
  • IASB overview of standard adoption, current technical matters and responses to submitted topics.
  • Impact of remeasurements subsequent to adoption on financials for leases where lessee has elected to combine the lease and nonlease components.
  • Calculation of present value of lease payments in a classification test subsequent to lease commencement – technical conclusion and implication that identified lease systems are calculating improperly.
  • Feedback from firms on SEC landscape of reviews of disclosures in filings.

Reserve your place and have the opportunity to ask your questions on these topics, and any other topics of interest surrounding the new lease accounting standards.
