Two-part series: Recognizing revenue under Topic 606
With the effective date of FASB Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, real estate industry-specific guidance previously applied is now superseded. Within the affordable housing industry, application of the new standard particularly impacts syndicators and developer entities. A new publication from the CohnReznick Assurance practice presents information to help syndicators navigate the five-step process for recognizing revenue, and to address considerations unique to them. The second publication in this two-part series will be a guide for affordable housing developers. That is expected to be released in our February newsletter.Treasury releases final opportunity zone regulations
