This online course digs into accelerating cash flow through Receivables Factoring. It delves into how companies speed up cash collection by selling their customer receivables to a financial middleman. The focus is on understanding the accounting and reporting rules governing these financial transactions, particularly aiming to distinguish them as a "true sale" rather than a secured borrowing under U.S. GAAP standards.
Throughout the course, participants will grasp the upsides and downsides of these factoring deals, become familiar with the specific U.S. GAAP guidelines related to such transactions, and learn about the necessary conditions for a factoring arrangement to be recognized as a sale. Furthermore, they'll explore how to assess true sale opinions and navigate through situations involving continued involvement or the repercussions of an unsuccessful sale.
This CPE Accounting course content covers a broad spectrum of crucial aspects, starting with an overview of factoring arrangements, diving into their pros and cons, and detailing the U.S. GAAP regulations that govern them. Participants will delve into the requirements for sale accounting in these arrangements, understand the criteria essential for a factoring deal to qualify as a sale, and get insights into scenarios where these arrangements don’t meet the sale criteria.
Enroll in this course by Kelen Camehl to gain an in-depth understanding of Receivables Factoring. You’ll learn to strategically optimize cash flows by leveraging insightful factoring arrangements while ensuring strict adherence to U.S. GAAP standards.
