IFRS 16 vs ASC 842 [Video]

ASC 842 is the section of the U.S. accounting rules codification that governs accounting for leases. ASC 842 was issued in February of 201640 and has many similarities to IFRS 16. For example, both ASC 842 and IFRS 16 require lessees to capitalize leases with a lease term of more than one year. However, there are several key differences between ASC 842 and IFRS 16. These differences mainly pertain to the lessee’s perspective. The most significant difference is that ASC 842 requires lessees to conduct a classification test to determine whether a lease will be treated as a finance lease or an operating lease. If the lease is classified as an operating lease, the lessee recognizes both interest expense on the lease liability and amortization expense on the right-of-use asset. However, the lessee amortizes the right-of-use asset in such a way that total lease expense is the same for each period. In short, the lessee first calculates interest expense and then calculates amortization expense as the plug that will make total lease expense the same amount each period. Thus, lessees report a single amount for lease expense that is the same from period to period. Another important difference is that ASC 842 doesn’t has an exception for leases of low-value assets. Recall that IFRS 16 requires lessees to capitalize all leases, except (a) short-term leases of 12 months or less and (b) leases of assets that have a value of $5,000 or less. With ASC 842, the exception is only available for short-term leases of 12 months or less. For lessors, ASC 842 relies on quantitative criteria to determine whether a lease should be classified as a finance lease or an operating lease. IFRS 16 says this determination should be based on the substance of the transaction.— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.

Criminals like Pablo Escobar and ElChapo earn their money through crimes and get their money put into the system through money laundering. So, money laundering is getting dirty money cleaned and put into the system, making it seem like clean money. Dirty money Dirty money is something acquired through illegal means. People who get dirty money cannot show it to the authorities, or they will catch them. Cleaning of dirty money To get dirty money in the bank accounts, they must make it seem clean or legally acquired. Hence, the dirty money gets cleaned. Clean money There are many ways through which one can clean such dirty money. Once cleaned, the money is clean and can be put back into the system without tracing its origins. (Explained in detail in the video) Why is money laundering is bad? Encourages criminals to keep going Once criminals know that their dirty money can be cleaned and put back into the system as clean money, they realize there are no consequences to what they do. Hence, they continue their crimes. Harms the society These criminal activities are only harming society and putting loads of money into the pockets of the criminals.

Tax Deduction for Sex Worker? [Video]

Can you get a tax deduction for paying a prostitute?In 2004 and 2005, a tax lawyer named deducted more than $100,000 he had paid to prostitutes for services rendered. He categorized this as a medical expense per § 213 of the tax code. He described it as “sex therapy”Now, § 213(a) does allow a deduction for medical/dental expenses. But the Treasury Regulations say you can’t get a deduction for illegal medical treatments. Since prostitution was illegal in the taxpayer’s state of New York, the Tax Court disallowed the deductionThe taxpayer also tried to deduct several thousand dollars for pornographic materials, but the Tax Court said that didn’t count as a medical expense either. The materials weren’t prescribed by a doctor, and were thus a personal expense. And the tax code doesn’t give many deductions for personal expensesSo, if you want to deduct the cost of sex therapy:• It needs to be legal in your state• It needs to be prescribed by a doctor— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.
