Kentucky Society of Certified Public Accountants

Overview

The effective date for ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) is next year. The new standard eliminates one of the largest forms of off-balance sheet accounting and requires most leases to be brought onto the balance sheet (whether classified as a financing or operating lease). The new guidance in ASC 842 also mandates other changes in lease accounting for both lessees and lessors. This course will discuss the impact of these changing standards on both parties and will discuss recently issued or proposed updates to ASC 842. As 2022 will be here before you know it, now is the time to get up to date on all that is going on with regard to lease accounting.
