  • Heads Up — No free passes: How the new current expected credit loss standard affects nonbanks Image

  • Heads Up — No free passes: How the new current expected credit loss standard affects nonbanks

    published 01 Jul 2019

    This Heads Up discusses key considerations for nonbanks as they contemplate adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU adds to U.S. GAAP an impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Although the new CECL standard has a greater impact on banks, most nonbanks have financial instruments that are subject to it, and many of those nonbanks may not have started evaluating its effect even though its effective date is quickly approaching.

  • Financial Reporting Alert 19-1 — Assessing the collectibility of operating lease receivables

    published 01 Jul 2019

    This Financial Reporting Alert addresses the questions that have arisen about how entities that have adopted the FASB’s new leasing standard, ASC 842, should account for the collectibility of operating lease receivables that are or are expected to become impaired. The alert notes that the FASB’s staff has indicated that entities must apply the guidance in ASC 842-30 that requires an assessment of the probability of payment, and they may supplement that guidance with the use of a general or portfolio reserve approach. Consistent application and transparent disclosure of the policy elected are critical.
