  20. Key Elements Five-step process: • Identification of contract with customer • Identification of performance obligations • Determination of transaction price • Allocation of the transaction price to separate performance obligations • Determination of when a performance obligation is satisfied and revenue recognized

  21. Prepare to Implement • Discuss with your CPA • Inventory all revenue streams • Determine what may need modified • Determine point in time vs over time • Determine if there are costs to acquire contracts that may need capitalized • Train boards and finance committees early

  29. Proposed ASU You have the ability to speak into a proposed change – NOW!

  30. Specifics Title: Not-for-Profit Entities (Topic 958): Clarifying the Scope and Accounting Guidance for Contributions Received and Contributions Made Issue date: August 3, 2017 Comment period: Ends November 1, 2017 Effective date: Fiscal years beginning after Dec 15, 2018 Early adoption: Permitted

  31. Key Elements • Evaluate whether the resource provider is receiving value in return for the resources transferred • Yes, then exchange transaction • On behalf of someone else, then exchange transaction (Medicare) • No, then contribution

  32. Key Elements • Requires organizations to determine conditional vs. unconditional • A barrier must be overcome and • Right of return of assets or release of obligation

  33. Key Elements Expected this could result in more grants and contracts being treated as contributions After a contribution is deemed unconditional, it may still have donor-imposed restrictions

  34. Is the transaction one in which each party directly receives commensurate value? It is an exchange transaction. Apply Topic 606 on revenue from contracts. Yes No Is the payment from a third-party payer on behalf of an existing reciprocal transaction? It is a balance-sheet only transaction. No effect on an entity’s revenue recognition. Yes No It is a nonreciprocal transaction. Apply contribution guidance. Are there conditions present (a barrier and a right to return or release)? It is unconditional. Recognize revenue in appropriate net asset class. No Yes Meeting of condition Are restrictions present (purpose or timing)? It is conditional. Recognize revenue when the condition is met. Yes No It is unconditional and with donor restrictions. It is unconditional and with donor restrictions.

  35. How to Respond • www.fasb.org/draft • Would the amendments in this proposed Update provide clarifying guidance that would be operable in practice? If not, why not? • Would the proposed amendments clarify whether a resource provider is receiving commensurate value in return for assets transferred and when a transaction is within the scope of Subtopic 958-605? If not, why not?

  36. Be prepared and don’t turn your back on these upcoming changes.
