December 29, 2010Recent Compilation and Review Issues (60510AM)SSARS 19 effectively rewrote and codified most of the compilation and review standards. This is an entirely new program designed to address the new standards.

Field of Study: Accounting – 2 hrs

What’s New with Quality Control and Peer Review (60510N)Beginning in 2009, firms were expected to revamp their quality control systems in order to comply with the Statement on Quality Control Standards No. 7, A Firm’s System of Quality Control. In addi-tion, peer reviews will undergo dramatic changes. This program will keep partici-pants on top of the latest changes to quality control policies and procedures and the peer review process.

Field of Study: Auditing – 2 hrs

NEW! Case Studies in Compliance Auditing (60510PM)*The AICPA has responded to the criticism leveled at it and other orga-nizations (GAO and OMB) in the PCIE’s Report on the Statistical Sample of Compliance Audits. As a result, addi-tional guidance is being provided on many of the deficiencies found during the study. This four hour module will take a look at the changes the new SAS No. 117 and audit guide will make to compliance auditing, as well as other puzzling aspects of compliance audit-ing using a case study format. The course will also address issues arising as a result of the nearly $300 billion in funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA).

Field of Study: Auditing – 4 hrs

*Qualifies for the 24 hour Yellow Book requirement if an auditor has FASB Yellow Book clients. Determination as to the qualification of certain courses for the Yellow Book 24 hour requirement should be made on an auditor specific basis depending on that auditor’s Yellow Book clients. Note that the determination of course qualification is a matter of an auditor’s professional judgment in consultation with appropriate individuals in the audit firm. The 24 hours are a subset of the 80 hour requirement.

December 30, 2010NEW! Fair Value Accounting in the 21st Century (60610AM)Fair value accounting has become a frequent topic of discussion for accountants, users, and government regulators during the past few years. ASC Topic 820, previously FASB 157, Fair Value Measurements, and FSP FASB 157-4, Determining Fair Value When Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly have caused confusion, frustration, and anger among many. This program will address this new fair value reality as it applies to frequently encountered situations in financial reporting.

Field of Study: Accounting – 4 hrs

NEW! International Accounting Standards – Differences with U.S. GAAP (60610N)With the increasing use of International Accounting Standards in the United States by both public and private companies, many accountants find they have to develop an understanding of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and how they differ from U.S. GAAP.

Field of Study: Accounting – 2 hrs

NEW! Accounting Standards Update (60610PM)*This session will provide an overview of changes made to pronouncements since the FASB Codification was ad-opted. Only pronouncements which are relevant to local accounting firms or privately-held companies will be covered in detail. For other issues, a quick synopsis will be provided.Note: This is a two hour version of our full day program “Loscalzo’s Annual FASB and AICPA Update.”

Field of Study: Accounting – 2 hrs

*Qualifies for the 24 hour Yellow Book requirement if an auditor has FASB Yellow Book clients. Determination as to the qualification of certain courses for the Yellow Book 24 hour requirement should be made on an auditor specific basis depending on that auditor’s Yellow Book clients. Note that the determination of course qualification is a matter of an auditor’s professional judgment in consultation with appropriate individuals in the audit firm. The 24 hours are a subset of the 80 hour requirement.
