A NASACT Training Webinar
Wednesday, July 20, 2011
2:00 - 3:50 Eastern Time
NASACT, in conjunction with the Association of Government Accountants and the Association of Local Government Auditors, is pleased to announce the latest in its series of training events addressing timely issues in government auditing and financial management.
As fiscal year-end for most state governments quickly approaches and a new year begins, it's an opportune time for financial statement preparers and auditors to get a refresher on standards that will be effective for June 30, 2011, financial statements as well as recently released GASB statements that will require attention in fiscal year 2012.
This webinar will provide "must know" guidance from GASB statements issued in the past year, including:
- Statement No. 59, Financial Instruments Omnibus
- Statement No. 60, Service Concession Arrangements
- Statement No. 61, Financial Reporting Entity Omnibus
- Statement No. 62, Codification of Pre-89 FASB and AICPA Pronouncements
Also included will be coverage on previously-issued GASB statements that are effective for June 30, 2011, including Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions.
GASB will also highlight other recently completed work including suggested guidelines for voluntary reporting on service efforts and accomplishments (SEA), as well as current projects including pension accounting and financial reporting and deferred outflows, inflows and net position.
Join GASB Chair Robert Attmore, GASB Director of Research David Bean, and other GASB staff for this informative two-hour training session. You will also be given an opportunity to ask questions and share experiences during the last 25 minutes of the webinar.
