Inside Basis vs Outside Basis | Partnership [Video]

The concepts of inside basis and outside basis can be confusing. “Inside basis” is the partnership’s basis in its assets, whereas “outside basis” is a partner’s basis in their partnership interest.When a partnership is first created, the partnership’s total inside basis is equal to the sum of the partners’ outside bases. Three events can make the total inside basis different from the total outside basis:(1) a partner dies(2) a partner acquires a partnership interest through a sale or exchange(3) the partnership distributes cash or property with a basis that exceeds the partner’s outside basis— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.

Michael Saylor welcomes FASB vote to review crypto accounting standards [Video]

Bitcoin proponent and MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor has welcomed the U. S. Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) vote to review accounting rules for digital assets and commodities. As it stands under current FASB guidelines — which is the source of authoritative Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) — companies must report digital assets such as BTC as “intangible assets” on their balance sheets. This is due to crypto not meeting the agreed definition of “cash and cash equivalents, financial instruments, financial assets, and inventory” amongst the agency. As crypto is deemed as an intangible asset, companies are required to measure the assets at their lowest price during a given reporting period, which often results in “impairment losses” on balance sheets even if the firm hasn’t closed its position. The FASB held a meeting to vote on the crypto accounting review earlier today, and while it is yet to publish the results via its website, it appears that Saylor was watching the live stream as he reported the vote went through 7-0 and stated “congratulations to the Bitcoin community.”“This is amazing. One step closer to making it easier for corporates to own Bitcoin on their balance sheet and account for it in a cogent manner,” responded Kraken’s Director of Growth Marketing Dan Held. While it is unclear when the review will take place, or what the outcome could be, a shift to a definition resembling anything in the ballpark of “traditional financial assets” would make it a lot easier for firms to accurately report their holdings instead of reporting them at their lowest prices under intangible assets. For example, both Tesla and MicroStrategy have reported impairment losses on their BTC stashes at various quarterly reports over the past 12 months. This is despite not realizing a loss through a sale and the price of BTC often indicating that their positions are in the green. Cointelegraph also reported yesterday that New York-based digital marketing and radio station company Townsquare Media posted a Q1 impairment loss of $400,00 0 on its BTC holdings. This is despite being able to sell its position for $1.2 million profit on the last day of Q1 on March 31. Related: Michael Saylor assuages investors after market slumps hurts MSTR, BTCIf MicroStrategy was reporting today however the impairment loss would be actual. MicroStrategy reported the average purchase price of its mammoth 129,218 BTC holdings at $30,700 in its Q1 report released last week, suggesting the firm would post a loss if it were to sell today. According to Forbes estimates , Saylor’s net worth — which is largely comprised of BTC and MicroStrategy stock (MSTR) – has dropped from $1.6 billion in March to just shy of $1 billion this week. Data from Coingecko shows that BTC has dropped 27.9% since March.1 to sit at $29,741 at the time of writing, while MSTR has dropped 63.7% to $168.20 within that same time frame according to TradingView. Although Saylor has outlined on numerous occasions that irrespective of price , the company will continue to buy and hodl.All data is taken from the source: https://cointelegraph.com/Article Link: https://cointelegraph.com/news/michael-saylor-welcomes-fasb-vote-to-review-crypto-accounting-standards#btc #btscstockprice #nearestbitcoinatm #cryptocurrencynews #cryptocurrencyexchange #cryptonews #cryptoexchange

Internal Control | Revenue Cycle [Video]

Before you can test a clients internal controls you first need to know which internal controls are in place. The auditor can identify the internal controls by asking the clients employees to complete a questionnaire and by doing a walkthrough of the revenue and collection cycle. The walkthrough would involve following a sale from the initial customer purchase all the way through to the collection of the receivable. If the auditor notices an area where a misstatement might occur during the walkthrough, the auditor should ask: has the client designed a control that, if operating effectively, would prevent or detect a material misstatement? The auditor should also be sure to consider entity-level controls. For example: Does the audit committee play an active role? Does management closely monitor sales returns? Does management closely monitor writeoffs of accounts receivable? Does management inspect aged accounts receivable for issues with collectability? If the client has strong entity-level controls in place, this improves the control environment and reduces the risk of material misstatement. In addition to considering entity-level controls, the auditor should also identify the internal controls pertaining to each management assertion. For example, a 3-way match of a purchase order, a shipping document, and a sales invoice provides evidence about the occurrence of revenue and the existence of a receivable. Verifying the dates on these documents provides evidence about the cutoff assertion. The use of prenumbered documents provides evidence about the completeness assertion. Comparing these documents ensures that the correct type of goods and the correct quantity of goods have been shipped to the correct location and at the correct price and terms of trade. This provides evidence about the authorization and accuracy assertions. Segregation of duties is critical for the revenue and collection cycle. Remember that the revenue and collection cycle consists of 5 parts: 1. Receiving and processing customer orders 2. Approving credit 3. Delivering goods and services 4. Billing customers and managing accounts receivable 5. Collecting and depositing cash Different people or departments should be responsible for each of these 5 steps. Allowing one person to perform a combination of these activities increases the risk of fraud or other problems.
