Webinar Description
Since FAS #13 was released in November of 1976, lease accounting has been very stable in the USA. However, in 2016 the FASB issued ASC 842 to replace those rules. They go into effect in 2019 for most companies. These new accounting standards change everything. Join us for a quick study of the new rules.
