Revenue Recognition: General Principles (Third Edition)
Author: CCH Editorial Staff

Description:
The accounting industry has long wrestled with how to recognize revenue. Nevertheless, it is still one of the most difficult numbers in the financial statements to get right. That's where this course comes in.

It addresses the key issues faced in revenue recognition, and reviews the litany of existing authoritative literature related to revenue recognition concepts.

The course describes the appropriate accounting for each issue, and explains the reason for that accounting. It also provides examples of key points, and includes excerpts from the financial statements of public companies that illustrate key concepts and judgments. Finally, future expectations and projects are reviewed.
