This EITF Snapshot covers the following issue discussed by the EITF at the meeting:
- Issue 09-H Health Care Entities: Revenue Recognition – Final consensus
- Issue 10-A How the Carrying Amount of a Reporting Unit Should Be Calculated When Performing Step 1 of the Goodwill Impairment Test – Final consensus
- Issue 10-D Fees Paid to the Federal Government by Pharmaceutical Manufacturers – Final consensus on one issue; consensus-for-exposure on a second issue
- Issue 10-E Accounting for Deconsolidation of a Subsidiary That Is In-Substance Real Estate – No consensus reached
- Issue 10-F Accounting for Legal Costs Associated With Medical Malpractice and Similar Claims – No consensus reached
- Issue 10-G Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations – Final consensus
Initial EITF consensuses (known as 'consensuses-for-exposure') are exposed for a comment period after ratification by the FASB. At its first scheduled meeting after the comment period, the EITF considers comments received and, as warranted, affirms its consensuses-for-exposure as final consensuses. Those consensuses are then provided to the FASB for final ratification.
