Course Description

Sometimes it is a challenge to keep up with the amendments in accounting standards issued by FASB. This CPE webinar will quickly bring you up to date on the applicable amendments introduced by FASB in Topic 326: Financial Instruments and Credit Losses.

Topic 326 is intended related to help all entities deal with Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs). These amendments related to disclosures affect public business entities with investments in financing receivables. In addition, it expands the scope of the Financial Instruments portfolio accounting to include related financial assets.

This topic specifies that write-offs and changes in value and carrying amounts may be treated in different ways. These amendments enhance disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing arrangements and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.

The standard provides additional guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of receivables adjustments. Finally, it specifies receivables should be considered when determining credit losses affecting long-lived assets.

Following are the major topics covered in this CPE Accounting course:

Basic concepts, scope, and applicability of accounting for troubled debt restructurings.
Planning the approach: accounting policies and decision criteria.
Sizing up the impacts of implementation: questions you need to ask.
Specific rules and provisions for troubled debt restructurings.
