The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) significantly transformed lease accounting with the introduction of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, now codified under ASC 842. This landmark change affects all organizations that lease property or equipment, requiring lessees to recognize lease assets and liabilities on their balance sheets. As these new rules are now fully in effect, understanding their implications is critical—not just for accurate financial reporting, but also for maintaining compliance with loan covenants and other contractual obligations.
This webinar will guide you through the complexities of the updated lease accounting standards. You'll gain practical insights into identifying, classifying, and measuring leases under the new framework. By the end of the session, you’ll be equipped to navigate the transition with confidence and ensure your financial statements reflect the latest requirements. This course is essential for accounting professionals who are directly involved in financial reporting, compliance, or contract management.
