New Thomson Reuters Content Helps Accounting Professionals with Financial Reporting

10/08/15
NEW YORK a{ €}"The latest content update from Thomson Reuters Checkpoint Catalyst <https://tax.thomsonreuters.co
--->m/checkpointcatalyst/?utm_medium=PressRelease&utm_source=PR&utm_campaign=CATALYST_USGAAP&elq=03e8a5522c814ccea42bd1109
--->aa8a73a&elqCampaignId=1005&elqaid=78&elqat=1&elqTrackId=236797f34f164e62965fb4c77c82f647> helps professionals comply w
--->ith the financial reporting requirements set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), the organization that
---> establishes standards governing the preparation of financial statements by nongovernmental organizations.
The FASB has a project underway to improve accounting rules for financial instruments and is expected to issue a final
---> standard in late 2015 to make targeted improvements to existing Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
Checkpoint Catalyst provides practical insight and expertise on accounting topics that are complex, undergoing changes
---> or challenging to apply. The new Checkpoint Catalyst: US GAAP <https://tax.thomsonreuters.com/Checkpoint-Catalyst-US-
--->GAAP?utm_medium=PressRelease&utm_source=PR&utm_campaign=CATALYST_USGAAP&elq=03e8a5522c814ccea42bd1109aa8a73a&elqCampai
--->gnId=1005&elqaid=78&elqat=1&elqTrackId=ade27687a52b4621ad6bc04a47058a9c> content examines specific accounting issues f
--->rom a practical and workflow perspective, focusing on areas such as revenue recognition and the classification and mea
--->surement of financial instruments.
a{ €}{ œ}Due to the widespread use and complexity of financial instruments, it is important for preparers,
---> auditors, and users of financial statements to be aware of the relevant accounting rules,a{ €}{: } said A
--->nne-Lise Vivier, accounting publications managing editor with the Tax & Accounting business of Thomson Reuters. a{ &#
--->128;}{ œ}Our new content provides extensive analysis of concepts as well as graphics to illustrate processes and
---> ideas, calculations, observations, examples, and sample disclosures to clarify the issues and enhance understanding.a
--->{ €}{: }
The US GAAP library on Checkpoint Catalyst includes a title covering the rules and principles regarding the classifica
--->tion and measurement of financial instruments and delves into subjects such as cost method and equity method investmen
--->ts, embedded derivatives, fair value option and troubled debt restructurings. Another title focuses on the new revenue
---> recognition standard. It presents the five-step model at the core of the new guidance and analysis of related matters
---> such as contract modification, presentation, disclosure and transition.
Thomson Reuters Checkpoint also produced the report Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments which can
--->be downloaded at no cost at tax.thomsonreuters.com/CheckpointCatalyst/Financial-Instruments <http://tax.thomsonreuters

This report looks at the existing rules on the classification and measurement of investments, loans and receivables, a
--->nd debt obligations. It also points out some of the primary differences with the International Financial Reporting Sta
--->ndards (IFRS) and gives a status update on the FASBa{ €}{ ™}s other ongoing projects for financial instrum
--->ents.
