Course Description

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) jointly issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, regarding revenue from contracts with customers.

ASC 606 provides a uniform framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The old guidance was industry-specific, which created a system of fragmented policies. The updated revenue recognition standard is industry-neutral and, therefore, more transparent. It allows for improved comparability of financial statements with standardized revenue recognition practices across multiple industries.

For years, revenue recognition has been the cause of audit failures and the focus of corporate abuse and fraud allegations. Today, we have FASB ASC 606, a new standard that is critical to understand before it can be successfully implemented.

The new revenue recognition standard has been implemented by all entities. The implementation process was long, detailed, controversial, and full of uncertainty. The principles-based standard requires analysis and discussions about various approaches. In many cases, issues raised were not anticipated and met with disagreement.

This CPE Accounting course will address many issues that were raised and discuss many areas that require detailed analysis. It will focus on what companies have learned in implementing the standard.

The focus will be on the application of the five steps in revenue recognition:

What constitutes a contract
Determination of performance obligations
Computation of the transaction price
Allocation of the transaction price
Recognition of revenue

With a few years under their belt since Topic 606’s introduction, most organizations have a good handle on the provisions of the new guidance. Those who implemented early can now focus their attention on refining their documentation, while later adopters benefit from some of the lessons learned that are now becoming best practices for successful implementation.

Learning Objectives

To study the concepts in revenue recognition.
To determine when a contract that involves revenue should be recognized.
To be able to identify performance obligations.
To be able to compute the transaction price.
To study how to properly recognize revenue under Topic 606.
