Catch-up on Past Issues
Newsletter December 2022
While we haven’t quite made it to the end of 2022, there has been very little standard setting activity at this point. FASB issued ASU 2022-05, Transition for Sold Contracts to address transition issued related to changes to long-duration insurance guidance (original ASU 2018-12). We do expect that reference rate reform effective date changes will come out before the end of the year and we know that the proposed changes to the leases standard won’t be finalized until late Q1 2023.

Newsletter November 2022
The FASB closed November with a BIG proposal related to private companies and leases. They are proposing changes to related party guidance for related parties under common control.

No final standards were issued by any standard setter. The GASB did put out a new exposure draft, Implementation Guidance Update—2023, which provides new questions and answers in a variety of financial reporting topics. FASB also proposed a new chapter for FASB Concepts Statement No. 8, Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting. The AICPA also put out for proposal Peer Review Standards Update No. 1, Omnibus Enhancements and Technical Corrections. We are still waiting for the issuance of a reference rate reform effective date change. We’ll continue to monitor and keep you informed.
Newsletter October 2022
We are still amazed at how quickly 2022 has just flown by! FASB has issued 3 exposure drafts this month including:Proposed Statement of Financial Accounting Concepts No. 8—Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting—Chapter 2: The Reporting EntityProposed ASU...
