Fair value accounting continues to be one of the most complex and controversial areas of accounting today, and its impact on the global economy is well documented. The FASB also continues to struggle with just how its guidance should be applied, as evidenced by the issuance thus far of several FASB Staff Positions and Accounting Standards Updates dealing with fair value issues. This course provides a conceptual and practical review of fair value accounting in the context of FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and other U.S. accounting standards. The course shows you how to measure the fair value of specific assets and liabilities and includes the pros and cons of fair valuing select balance sheet items. The course also includes practical examples and case study reviews of applying fair value measurements and disclosures under the authoritative guidance provided in FASB ASC 820 and other U.S. accounting standards.
Participants will be able to be up-to-date on recently issued FASB guidance on fair value accounting; define “fair value” and review introductory concepts applicable to fair value accounting; identify and apply valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, the income approach, and the cost approach used to measure fair value; understand and apply the fair value hierarchy established in
FASB ASC 820; examine the expanded fair value disclosure requirements outlined in FASB ASC 820; recognize the key aspects of the fair value option under FASB ASC 825; review the basics involved in auditing fair value measurements and disclosures and apply the concepts of fair value accounting through examples and case studies
