FASB's Revenue Recognition Topic 606

Description

It's not too late to panic! FASB's Topic 606 on revenue recognition supersedes nearly all current revenue recognition provisions, including industry-specific guidelines, and replaces it with a more principles-based approach, which is now a five-step process.

The new standard was effective for public companies in January 2018 and is now effective for private companies in 2019. Now is the time to dig in and start getting up to speed on these critically important issues.
