Not-for-Profit: FASB Update

Description

This course provides CPAs with a comprehensive overview of the latest updates from the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) relevant to not-for-profit organizations. In this session, the FASB's lead staff person for not-for-profits will guide you through recent and potential upcoming changes to GAAP affecting not-for-profits. We'll focus on some recent ASUs (including ones on common control leases and on crypto assets), implementation matters on the new credit losses (CECL) standard, and some noteworthy current FASB projects (including ones on software costs and on environmental credit programs). This session was recorded on May 30, 4 at the 4 Not-for-Profit Conference.
