OVERVIEW

Many entities look to their CPA as a trusted advisor when tackling complex accounting topics. This is more relevant now than ever. The FASB's big three accounting pronouncements involving revenue recognition, leasing and credit losses have placed a magnifying glass on this reality.

This course addresses these issues and explores best practices and guidance provided by the AICPA's Code of Professional Conduct.
