New Lease Standard from FASB (ASC 842)

Some leases will need to be recorded as assets on the balance sheet in the financial statements. These will be known as right-to-use assets. The amount represents the net present value of the lease. In response to this change in accounting standards, we have added an account to the drop-down list for Account 1590, Miscellaneous Other Assets, titled “Right-to-Use Asset.


Statement on Auditing Standards Nos. 134-140 - Final Draft HUD Reports Posted
REAC received the following information from the AICPA:
The AICPA Governmental Audit Quality Center (GAQC) has worked collaboratively with HUD Office of Inspector General staff to update the illustrative auditor reports included in Chapter 2 of the HUD Guide for the impact of Statement on Auditing Standards Nos. 134-140. Those standards are effective for audits of periods ending on or after December 15, 2021. Currently, the reports, along with other revisions to Chapter 2, are in the HUD clearance process. The GAQC has obtained permission from HUD to post the final drafts of the illustrative reports on the GAQC Illustrative Reports Web page (scroll down to the HUD Report Illustrations section). This page is open to GAQC and AICPA members, as well as the public (only an AICPA account is needed to access them). These GAQC posted reports are intended to assist auditors that need to issue reports prior to HUD’s formal issuance. Once HUD issues the final reports (and an updated Chapter 2), auditors should look to the HUD Guide to access the final illustrations.


The American Institute of CPAs’ Auditing Standards Board has released Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 19, Agreed-Upon Procedures Engagements. The new standards are effective for agreed-upon procedures engagements performed after July 15, 2021. The FASS-FHA team is currently working on updating the FASSUB system to incorporate new language that meets the requirements. We are anticipating these updates to be in place in six to seven weeks. Below are links to the new attestation language we will be using.
