Recent FASB & AICPA Updates
FASB Accounting Standards Updates - Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-04 —Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt —Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation —Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging —Contracts in Entity 's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer 's Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)

Summary - The FASB issued an ASU that clarifies an issuer’s accounting for call options, including certain modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (e.g., warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange.

ASU 2021-04 is based on a consensus of the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF). The ASU provides guidance on how an issuer would measure and recognize the effect of these transactions. Specifically, it provides a principles-based framework to determine whether an issuer should recognize the modification or exchange as an adjustment to equity or an expense.

Exposure Draft - Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2021-002 —Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging —Portfolio Layer Method

Summary - The FASB issued a proposed Accounting Standards Update (ASU) intended to better align hedge accounting with an organization’s risk management strategies. Stakeholders are encouraged to review and provide comment on the proposed ASU by July 5, 2021.

In 2017, the FASB issued a new hedging standard to better align the economic results of risk management activities with hedge accounting. The new standard increased transparency around how the results of hedging activities are presented, both on the face of the financial statements and in the footnotes, for investors and analysts when hedge accounting is applied.

One of the major provisions of that standard was the addition of the last-of-layer hedging method. For a closed portfolio of fixed-rate prepayable financial assets or one or more beneficial interests secured by a portfolio of prepayable financial instruments, such as mortgages or mortgaged-backed securities, the last-of-layer method allows an entity to hedge its exposure to fair value changes due to changes in interest rates for a portion of the portfolio that is not expected to be affected by prepayments, defaults, and other events affecting the timing and amount of cash flows.

Since issuing the hedging standard, stakeholders have told the FASB that the ability to elect hedge accounting for a single layer is useful, but hedge accounting could better reflect risk management activities if expanded to allow multiple layers of a single closed portfolio to be hedged under the method.

The proposed ASU would expand the current single-layer model to allow multiple-layer hedges of a single closed portfolio of prepayable financial assets or one or more beneficial interests secured by a portfolio of prepayable financial instruments under the method. To reflect that expansion, the last-of-layer method would be renamed as the portfolio layer method.

Additionally, the proposed ASU would:
  • Clarify eligible hedging instruments in a single-layer strategy;
  • Provide additional guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of fair value hedge basis adjustments that would be applicable to both the current single-layer model and the proposed multiple-layer model; and
  • Indicate how fair value hedge basis adjustments should be considered when determining credit losses for the assets included in the closed portfolio.

Annual Financial Reports –GASB Proposes Renaming the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report

Summary - The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has proposed to change the title of the “comprehensive annual financial report” to the “annual comprehensive financial report.” The comment deadline is July 9, 2021.
The proposed name change was prompted by GASB stakeholders raising concerns that the existing acronym for the report, when spoken, sounds like a profoundly offensive term. After seeking input from various stakeholder groups, the GASB added a project to its current technical agenda in December 2020 to address those concerns.

The Exposure Draft (ED), The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, proposes to eliminate both the financial report name and the offensive acronym from the GASB’s standards, though it is important to note that no changes have been proposed to the structure or content of the report.

Regarding the issuance of the ED, GASB Chair Joel Black said, “When you pronounce the acronym, it is a highly offensive racial slur directed toward Black South Africans. As we and our stakeholders are part of a global community, we do not wish to be offensive to anyone, so we have undertaken the project to address this.”

Goodwill –FASB Discusses Identifiable Intangible Assets and Subsequent Accounting for Goodwill

Summary - As reported in its “Summary of Board Decisions” publication, the FASB met on April 7, 2021 and discussed the FASB staff’s research and analysis on: (1) subsuming certain identifiable intangible assets in a business combination into goodwill; and (2) factors entities could consider when estimating the useful life of goodwill if they choose to deviate from the default period and how such factors might affect the specifics of a potential cap on the amortization period.

The FASB directed its staff to perform additional research and outreach related to:
  • Users’ perspectives on what types of intangible assets provide decision-useful information. The FASB is expected to use the results from users in future discussions on whether certain identifiable intangible assets should be subsumed into goodwill as well as whether certain intangible assets should be recognized separately from goodwill.
  • Certain factors that may be used to estimate the useful life of goodwill, including management’s estimated payback period.

Leases –FASB Discusses Leases with Variable Lease Payments

Summary - As reported in its “Summary of Board Decisions” publication, the FASB met on April 14, 2021 and completed its redeliberations on the issue of sales-type leases with variable lease payments in the proposed Accounting Standards Update, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements.

The FASB decided that a lessor should classify a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate as an operating lease at lease commencement if:
  • The lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or direct financing lease in accordance with the classification criteria in paragraphs 842-10-25-2 and 25-3, respectively.
  • The lessor would have recognized a selling loss at lease commencement.

Foreign Exchange Rates –IASB Proposes Amendments on the Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates

Summary - The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has published the Exposure Draft, Lack of Exchangeability – Proposed Amendments to IAS 21. The Exposure Draft proposes amendments to International Accounting Standard (IAS) 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, to help companies determine whether a currency can be exchanged into another currency and what accounting to apply if the currency cannot be exchanged. The comment deadline is September 1, 2021.

IAS 21 sets out the exchange rate a company uses when it reports foreign currency transactions or a foreign operation’s results in a different currency. However, IAS 21 does not set out the exchange rate to use when there is no observable exchange rate the company can use, such as when a currency cannot be converted into a foreign currency. The IASB’s proposed amendments to IAS 21 would help companies identify whether this situation applies to them and the accounting to apply when it does.

The IASB expects that the amendments in the Exposure Draft, if adopted as proposed, would improve the usefulness of the information provided to investors by requiring a consistent approach to determining whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency and, when it is not, determining the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide.

The IASB has published a webcast to accompany the Exposure Draft. The webcast provides an overview of the Exposure Draft and answers some commonly asked questions.

COVID-19 –IASB Extends Support for Lessees Accounting for Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions

Summary - The IASB has extended by one year, the application period of the practical expedient in IFRS 16 Leases to help lessees accounting for covid-19-related rent concessions.

In response to calls from stakeholders and because the covid-19 pandemic is still at its height, the IASB has extended the relief by one year to cover rent concessions that reduce only lease payments due on or before June 30, 2022.

The original amendment was issued in May 2020 to make it easier for lessees to account for covid-19-related rent concessions, such as rent holidays and temporary rent reductions, while continuing to provide useful information about their leases to investors.
The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2021.

IASB Agenda –IFRS Publishes Third Agenda Consultation for Public Comment

Summary - The IASB has published for public comment a Request for Comment, Third Agenda Consultation. This document seeks input on the IASB’s activities and agenda. The objective of this agenda consultation is to gather views on:

  • The strategic direction and balance of the IASB’s activities;
  • The criteria for assessing the priority of financial reporting issues that could be added to the work plan; and
  • New financial reporting issues that could be given priority in the IASB’s work plan.

In addition to the Technical Update April 2021, the GAO issued accessible text of the same document.

Revision Process
Yellow Book revisions undergo an extensive process, including public comments and input from the Comptroller General's Advisory Council on Government Auditing Standards. GAO considers these comments and input in finalizing revisions to the standards.
Effective Date
The 2018 revision of the Yellow Book is effective for financial audits, attestation engagements, and reviews of financial statements for periods ending on or after June 30, 2020, and for performance audits beginning on or after July 1, 2019. Early implementation is not permitted.

Tax Updates
IRS, Treasury Announce Families of 88% of Children in the U.S. to Automatically Receive Monthly Payment of Refundable Child Tax Credit
Written by the IRS and available here.

The Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced that the first monthly payment of the expanded and newly-advanceable Child Tax Credit (CTC) from the American Rescue Plan will be made on July 15. Roughly 39 million households—covering 88% of children in the United States—are slated to begin receiving monthly payments without any further action required.

IRS and Treasury also announced the increased CTC payments will be made on the 15th of each month unless the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday. Families who receive the credit by direct deposit can plan their budgets around receipt of the benefit. Eligible families will receive a payment of up to $300 per month for each child under age 6 and up to $250 per month for each child age 6 and above. 

The American Rescue Plan increased the maximum Child Tax Credit in 2021 to $3,600 for children under the age of 6 and to $3,000 per child for children between ages 6 and 17. The American Rescue Plan is projected to lift more than five million children out of poverty this year, cutting child poverty by more than half.

Households covering more than 65 million children will receive the monthly CTC payments through direct deposit, paper check, or debit cards, and IRS and Treasury are committed to maximizing the use of direct deposit to ensure fast and secure delivery. While most taxpayers will not be required to take any action to receive their payments, Treasury and the IRS will continue outreach efforts with partner organizations over the coming months to make more families aware of their eligibility.

Today’s announcement represents the latest collaboration between the IRS and Bureau of the Fiscal Service—and between Treasury and the White House American Rescue Plan Implementation Team—to ensure help quickly reaches Americans in need as they recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. Since March 12, the IRS has also distributed approximately 165 million Economic Impact Payments with a value of approximately $388 billion as a part of the American Rescue Plan. 

Additional information for taxpayers on how they can access the Child Tax Credit will be available soon on at IRS.gov/childtaxcredit2021.

If you would like additional information, please feel free to contact our Senior Tax Manager, Nicole Zhao.
