Description
Designed for all tax practitioners, including those who just prepare returns and those who assist on financial statement engagements, this course will replenish your accounting and reporting tank with an update of recent standard-setting activities at the FASB and AICPA. To start, the course will review the significant new financial accounting, auditing, and accounting services guidance issued over the past few years. The course will also focus on any unique income tax reporting (ASC 740) implications of recently issued accounting standards, such as revenue recognition (ASC 606) and leases (ASC 842) and those of COVID-19 stimulus and other tax-related legislation. The course will also discuss recently issued standards and review the recent activity of the AICPA with a focus on how the new standards will impact tax practitioners.
Lastly, the course will dive into the unique income tax accounting considerations which arise from certain types of transactions, such as stock-based compensation, and review the presentation and disclosure requirements of ASC 740.
