Webinar: GASB 87 - Understanding and Implementing the New Lease Accounting Standard

GASB 87 fundamentally changes lease recognition, measurement, and related disclosures for both government lessees and lessors. The standard will be effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2019, so it is imperative that your state or local government understands the new reporting requirement and acts quickly to implement any necessary changes. 

In this complimentary one-hour webinar, we will review the new standard, provide practical examples using different types of leases, and cover approaches for assessing and implementing the new requirements in your organization.
