To our clients, colleagues, and other friends:

Welcome to Quarterly Accounting Roundup: Second Quarter — 2018. Standards issued by the FASB in the second quarter of 2018 include the following:

• Final ASUs on (1) clarifying the guidance on contributions received and made, (2) enhancing depository and lending guidance, and (3) simplifying the guidance on nonemployee share-based payments.

• A proposed ASU that would make targeted improvements to the accounting for collaborative arrangements.

There was also a flurry of activity over at the SEC at the end of June. Among other items, the Commission released final rules that (1) amend the definition of “smaller reporting company,” (2) require entities to use inline XBRL when filing tagged data, and (3) revise the liquidity-related disclosure requirements for certain open-end funds. Stay tuned for Deloitte’s forthcoming Heads Up publications on the updated definition of smaller reporting company and the new inline XBRL requirements.

On the international front, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB®) published its revised “Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting.” The updated version includes a new chapter on measurement, guidance on reporting financial performance, improved definitions and guidance, and clarifications on important topics. The IASB also issued an exposure draft that would amend the guidance on accounting policies in IAS 8.1

Featured Deloitte PublicationsPerhaps the most significant publication released by Deloitte in the second quarter of 2018 was the inaugural edition of its much-anticipated Roadmap to Applying the New Leasing Standard, which was issued on April 2, 2018. This Roadmap combines the requirements in the FASB’s new leasing guidance, ASC 842,2 with Deloitte’s interpretations and examples in a comprehensive, reader-friendly format. In addition, the publication highlights (1) the requirements of ASC 842 that significantly differ from those in the Board’s previous leasing guidance, ASC 840, and the IASB’s new leasing standard, IFRS 16,3 and (2) standard-setting developments addressing questions raised and challenges identified by stakeholders over the past two years.

Other important Deloitte publications released in the second quarter of 2018 include the following:

• A Roadmap to Accounting for Environmental Obligations and Asset Retirement Obligations — Topics covered include (1) the relationship between various laws and regulations and the accounting for environmental obligations and asset retirement obligations; (2) the framework for accounting for environmental obligations under ASC 410-30; and (3) industry considerations.

• A Roadmap to SEC Reporting Considerations for Equity Method Investees — Combines the SEC’s guidance on reporting for equity method investments with Deloitte’s interpretations (Q&As) and examples in a comprehensive, reader-friendly format.

• April 11, 2018, Heads Up — Provides a high-level overview of the new five-step model for recognizing revenue under ASC 606 and discusses the standard’s mandatory effective date for private companies. It also outlines the practical expedients available to private companies with respect to certain of the new standard’s disclosure requirements.

Accounting — Newly Issued StandardsContributions Received and Made

FASB Clarifies Guidance on Contributions Received and MadeAffects: All entities.

Summary: On June 21, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-08,4 which amends the Board’s guidance on contributions received and made. Specifically, the ASU clarifies and enhances “current guidance about whether a transfer of assets (or the reduction, settlement, or cancellation of liabilities) is a contribution or an exchange transaction.” In addition, the amendments clarify “how an entity determines whether a resource provider is participating in an exchange transaction” and improves the framework for “determining whether a contribution is conditional or unconditional, and for distinguishing a donor-imposed condition from a donor-imposed restriction.”

Next Steps: For the ASU’s effective date and transition provisions, see Appendix A.

Other Resources: For more information, see the press release and FASB in Focus newsletter on the FASB’s Web site.

Income Taxes

FASB Enhances Depository and Lending GuidanceAffects: All entities.

Summary: On May 7, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-06,5 which supersedes guidance in ASC 942-740 associated with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s (OCC’s) Banking Circular 202 (on accounting for net deferred tax charges), since the OCC has rescinded that guidance. The amendments in this ASU are being made as part of the FASB’s Codification improvements project (i.e., minor corrections and enhancements) and are therefore not expected to significantly affect current practice.

The amendments became effective upon issuance.

Nonemployee Share-Based Payments

FASB Simplifies Guidance on Nonemployee Share-Based PaymentsAffects: All entities.

Summary: On June 20, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07,6 which supersedes ASC 505-50 and expands the scope of ASC 718 to include all share-based payment arrangements related to the acquisition of goods and services from both nonemployees and employees. As a result, most of the guidance in ASC 718 associated with employee share-based payments, including most of its requirements related to classification and measurement, applies to nonemployee share-based payment arrangements.

Next Steps: For the ASU’s effective date and transition provisions, see Appendix A.

Other Resources: Deloitte’s June 21, 2018, Heads Up. Also see the press release and FASB in Focus newsletter on the FASB’s Web site.

Collaborative Arrangements

FASB Proposes Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Collaborative ArrangementsAffects: All entities.

Summary: On April 26, 2018, the FASB issued for public comment a proposed ASU7 that would amend ASC 808 (on collaborative arrangements) to address uncertainties related to the interaction of that guidance with the FASB’s new revenue standard (ASC 606).

Enhancements made by the proposed ASU would include the following:

• The addition of unit-of-account guidance to ASC 808 to “align with the guidance in [ASC] 606 (that is, a distinct good or service) limited to when an entity is assessing the scope of [ASC] 606.”

• Clarification that “certain transactions between collaborative participants should be accounted for as revenue under [ASC] 606 when the collaborative participant is a customer in the context of the unit of account.”

• Clarification that, “in a transaction that is not directly related to sales to third parties, presenting the transaction as revenue would be precluded if the collaborative participant counterparty is not a customer.”

Comments on the proposed ASU were due by June 11, 2018.

Other Resources: Deloitte’s April 30, 2018, Heads Up.

Collections

FASB Proposes Amendment to the Definition of CollectionsAffects: All entities.

Summary: On June 26, 2018, the FASB issued a proposed ASU8 that would amend the definition of the term “collections” in U.S. GAAP to modify one of the three conditions under which an entity is not required to “recognize contributions of works of art, historical treasures, and similar assets if the donated items are added to collections.” Specifically, under the proposal, an entity would be permitted to use “the proceeds from sales of collection items . . . to support the direct care of existing collections in addition to the current requirement that proceeds from sales of collection items be used to acquire other items for collections.”

Next Steps: Comments on the proposed ASU are due by August 10, 2018.

International

IASB Proposes Amendments to IAS 8Affects: Entities reporting under IFRS® Standards.

Summary: On March 27, 2018, the IASB issued an exposure draft9 that would amend the guidance on accounting policies in IAS 8. Specifically, the proposed changes would:

• Make it easier for an entity to change an accounting policy in response to an agenda decision issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee.

• Allow an entity to depart from full retrospective application of the new policy if it can demonstrate that the cost of determining the effects of the retrospective application would exceed the expected benefits to users.

Next Steps: Comments on the exposure draft are due by July 27, 2018.

Other Resources: Deloitte’s March 29, 2018, IFRS in Focus. Also see the press release on the IASB’s Web site.

Summary: On June 11, 2018, the FASB’s credit losses transition resource group (TRG) met to discuss the current expected credit loss (CECL) model, an impairment model that ASU 2016-1311 added to U.S. GAAP and that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Specifically, the TRG discussed the following topics:

• Topic 1 — Consideration of capitalized interest by using a method other than a discounted cash flow method under the CECL model.

• Topic 2 — Definition of “amortized cost basis” and the reversal of accrued interest on nonperforming financial assets.

• Topic 3 — Transfer of loans from held for sale to held for investment and transfer of credit-impaired debt securities from available for sale to held to maturity.

IASB Publishes Revised Conceptual FrameworkAffects: Entities reporting under IFRS Standards.

Summary: On March 29, 2018, the IASB published its revised “Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting.” The purpose of the framework is to “(a) assist the [IASB] to develop IFRS Standards (Standards) that are based on consistent concepts; (b) assist preparers to develop consistent accounting policies when no Standard applies to a particular transaction or other event, or when a Standard allows a choice of accounting policy; and (c) assist all parties to understand and interpret the Standards.”

The revised framework includes a new chapter on measurement, guidance on reporting financial performance, improved definitions and guidance, and clarifications on important topics (e.g., the roles of stewardship, prudence, and measurement uncertainty in financial reporting).

The IASB has also issued amendments that update references to the framework in certain standards. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020.

Summary: On June 28, 2018, the SEC issued a final rule15 that amends the definition of a “smaller reporting company” (SRC) to expand the number of companies that qualify for this classification and are therefore able to take advantage of the scaled disclosure requirements that apply to such companies. Under the final rule, smaller reporting companies “include registrants with a public float of less than $250 million, as well as registrants with annual revenues of less than $100 million for the previous year and either no public float or a public float of less than $700 million.” In view of this new definition of smaller reporting company, the final rule also revises other definitions, such as those for “accelerated filer” and “large accelerated filer,” in an effort to “preserve the existing thresholds in those definitions.”

Next Steps: The final rule will become effective 60 days after the date of its publication in the Federal Register.

Other Resources: For more information, see the press release on the SEC’s Web site.

In addition, the rule removes the requirement for operating companies and funds to post XBRL data on their Web sites.

Next Steps: The final rule will become effective 30 days after the date of its publication in the Federal Register.

Other Resources: For more information, see the press release on the SEC’s Web site.

SEC Amends Certain Disclosure Requirements for Registered Open-End FundsAffects: SEC registrants.

Appendix B: Current Status of FASB ProjectsThis appendix summarizes the current status and next steps for the FASB’s active standard-setting projects (excluding research initiatives). Content recently added or revised is highlighted in green.

Project Status and Next Steps Deloitte Resources

Recognition and Measurement Projects

Codification improvements

On October 3, 2017, the FASB issued a proposed ASU that would make Codification improvements to a wide variety of topics. Comments were due by December 4, 2017. On April 11, 2018, the FASB redeliberated the proposed amendments and directed the staff to draft a final ASU for a vote by written ballot. The final ASU is expected to be issued in the third quarter of 2018.

In May 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-06, which supersedes outdated guidance in ASC 942 related to bank regulatory accounting principles. The ASU became effective upon issuance.

Codification improvements: financial instruments

On March 28, 2018, the FASB directed its staff to obtain external-review feedback on potential Codification improvements related to the concept of the change in hedged risk in ASC 815-30-35-37A.

Journal Entry — Hedging — FASB Discusses Feedback on Key Implementation Issues (April 10, 2018)

Collaborative arrangements: targeted improvements

On April 26, 2018, the FASB issued a proposed ASU that would amend ASC 808 to clarify when transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement should be accounted for as revenue transactions under ASC 606. Comments were due by June 11, 2018.

Heads Up — FASB Proposes Guidance on Collaborative Arrangements (April 30, 2018)

Consolidation reorganization and targeted improvements

On September 20, 2017, the FASB issued a proposed ASU that would reorganize the consolidation guidance in ASC 810 by dividing it into separate subtopics for voting interest entities and variable interest entities (VIEs). The new subtopics would be included in a new topic, ASC 812, which would supersede ASC 810. Comments on the proposal were due by December 4, 2017.

Heads Up — FASB Proposes to Reorganize Its Consolidation Guidance (October 5, 2017)

Consolidation: targeted improvements to related-party guidance for VIEs

On June 22, 2017, the FASB published a proposed ASU under which (1) private companies “would not have to apply VIE guidance to legal entities under common control . . . if both the parent and the legal entity being evaluated for consolidation are not [PBEs]”; (2) “[i]ndirect interests held through related parties in common control arrangements would be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests”; and (3) consolidation would no longer be mandatory when “power is shared among related parties or when commonly controlled related parties, as a group, have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest but no reporting entity individually has a controlling financial interest.” Comments on the proposal were due by September 5, 2017. On May 16, 2018, and June 6, 2018, the Board directed the staff to draft a final ASU that reflects the tentative decisions reached to date for a vote by written ballot. The FASB expects to issue the final ASU in the third quarter of 2018.

Heads Up — FASB Proposes Targeted Amendments to the Related-Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities (July 14, 2017)

Customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is considered a service contract (EITF Issue 17-A)

On March 1, 2018, the FASB issued a proposed ASU that would amend ASC 350-40 to address a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. Comments were due by April 30, 2018. On June 7, 2018, the EITF discussed the comment letters received and reached a final consensus. The FASB expects to issue a final ASU in the third quarter of 2018.
