Too many disposals of small groups of assets that are recurring in nature qualify for discontinued operations under prior GAAP. This caused financial statements to be less decision useful for users. Additionally, the guidance on discontinued operations resulted in higher costs for preparers because it can be complex and difficult to apply. The FASB issued ASU 2014-08 to address those problems by changing the criteria for reporting discontinued operations, while simultaneously enhancing convergence with the International Accounting Standard Board’s reporting requirements for discontinued operations.
A disposal of a component of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results when the component meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale (ASC 205-20-45-1E) or when the component is disposed of by sale.

All other entities should apply the amendments prospectively to all disposals of components of an entity, and all businesses or nonprofit activities that, on acquisition, are classified as held for sale, that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15,2014 and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15,2015. (ASU 2014-08)
The amendments in this update improves the definition of discontinued operations, resulting in limited disposals. In effect, the financial statements will provide more
In advising the board on whether this is a financially sound decision; I do not think that this would be a great decision for the community to make, and would risk the district losing several millions of dollars over the next three years. With the five percent increase year one over the current salary schedule, and only a two percent increase in revenue the district would lose $91,123. This is because of the increase in salary, retirement, and social security; mixed with stagnate insurance cost, and only a 2% increase of revenue would equate to the district losing 91,123 in the first year.

Through using the IDEA software, I was able to dive deeper into the recorders of Troy Township. I was able to import Troy’s fiscal year transaction data and run multiple analysis on the data. IDEA is an easy-to-use software that took the difficulty out of the sorting and configuring reports that could show exactly what I was looking for. I was able to create many useful reports that helped me get to the bottom of the fraud that I believe was happening at Troy Township. The records I will be evaluating are; a record count report, a material amount report, a highest expenditure report, a day specific report, a Benford’s report, a duplicate report, and a name specific report. All these reports have their own bit of useful information that had led me to the conclusion that fraud is occurring at Troy.
Gina wakes up at 7 am Monday-Thursday for her Marketing class that begins promptly at 8:30 am. The first thing she checks is her IPhone, to see what her friends have been up to on their spring break. She answers any texts she received throughout the night and finally gets up and begins her day. Gina rides to school in a 2013 Fusion, which she pays for herself, which is why she wasn’t able to go on spring break this year because she needed to put money aside for the car. Even though she didn’t get to go on vacation this year she still loves hearing the updates from her friends, it makes her feel connected in a sense.

Right from the beginning of this course I had a terrible feeling that I was not going to learn what I had to or finish it with a good grade. It all began when I found out that I had to be in contact with an administrator in order to obtain the data needed to complete the final project. Dirksen (2014) wrote that one should never give up, even when everything seems against you. That is exactly what I did. I tried and fortunately, I was able to find help, gain a lot of knowledge from the material I had to read, good advices from my assistant principal, and learn how analyze school data in detail and put together a Data-Driven Decision Making Team together (3D). Also, and probably the most important, I learned to think more like a leader than a teacher.

As per your request of an analysis of the following topics: Adjusting lower of cost or market inventory on valuation, Capitalizing interest on building construction, Recording gain or loss on asset disposal, and Adjusting goodwill for impairment.
