  • Recognize key differences between GASB 87 and GASB 96.
  • Gain insights into implementation challenges of GASB standards.
  • Identify key auditor considerations.
  • Identify an effective and efficient audit approach.

Course Overview

GASB 87 (Accounting Standard for leases) and GASB 96 (Accounting Standard for subscription-based information technology arrangements) are similar, yet very different. 

After GASB 87 went into effect, it required government entities to report both the lease liability and assets on the Statement of Financial Position. GASB 96 instead requires government entities to report subscription liabilities and assets. Both share the characteristic of further complicating lease accounting in the name of financial clarity. 

When considering these two specific GASB standards from an auditing perspective, it's essential to examine potential discrepancies between GASB 96 and GASB 87 lease spreadsheets. Discover the nuanced distinctions and critical points of concern related to these standards by participating in this CPE Course dedicated to exploring GASB 96 and GASB 87.

This CPE Course is designed to provide valuable insights for auditors and auditees alike. Delve into significant implementation challenges and crucial auditor considerations surrounding GASB standards, including practical tips on GASB's SBITA standards and their similarities with GASB’s lease standard. Explore auditing considerations for SBITA assets, liabilities, and other pertinent financial statement items, and discover helpful strategies for auditors to develop effective and efficient audit approaches.

Key topics covered:

  • Overview of GASB 87 and GASB 96
  • Implementation Challenges
  • Auditing GASB 87 Leases
  • Auditing GASB 96 SBITA
  • Case Studies and Real-World Applications
