Key impacts
We summarize the guidance in the ASU on a topic-by-topic basis and provide our observations related to implementing the guidance based on our current understanding of the ASU. Discussion and detailed examples are provided about disaggregating:
- the effective tax rate reconciliation
- income taxes paid
- pretax income (loss) and income tax expense (benefit), both from continuing operations.
We also answer many of the questions encountered in practice when implementing the ASU and continue to analyze how the ASU applies to issues arising in practice. This Hot Topic will be updated as additional information becomes available.
