On comment I had. At the beginning you said that the interest rate would not impact the income statement. But that is not necessarily true. Because the lower the interest rate, the more likely you are to have finance leases and that difference between operating and finance classification would impact the income statement. Also hard to do a restatement example without info from the first one. I deleted as I went so I could not fully participate. But my company has been live for awhile so it was not a big deal. Just a thought for future webcasts. Wish something like this was available when we started 3/4 years ago- would have made my job a lot easier.

Instructor's speaking style and pacing was really engaging and interesting. Her excel file had precisely the right formulas to automatically & easily calculate ASC 842 schedules & JE's. I liked that she gave us "class work" to calculate the various numbers for ASC 842 accounting including JE's & went over the correct process after giving us time to work it out on our own. Extremely informative. This was the best format I could have hoped for.

It was at far too fast a pace for my level of technical knowledge. But the content was excellent and one which I will refer to again and again in order to increase my level of technical understanding. I would appreciate having the recording available as well as the handouts in order to refer to it again and again. Repetition is always a good thing when learning a new pronouncement!

A complex topic covered in just 1.5 hours. Given the complexity, I would definitely recommend taking Lauren's Introduction to ASC 842 1 hour course first. I feel like these 2 courses combined have prepared me really well to take on ASC 842 implementation across our firm. Thank you Lauren!
