A new GASB accounting standard has recently became effective that alters the historical landscape of how lease accounting has always been performed. GASB 87 not only does away with the methodology of previous accounting for leases, but also introduces new concepts for what a lease is, and even more importantly what is not a lease, and also provides new guidance on how to determine the true “term” of a lease for accounting and financial reporting purposes.

The increasingly complex and unprecedented nature of risks and challenges facing government, exacerbated by the pandemic, the widespread dissemination of mis, dis, and mal-information in the public square eroding public trust, and the rapidly evolving nature of auditing tools, technologies, and workforce changes, presents and requires new strategies and approaches. This four-hour session focuses on strategies for effectively navigating a new day for public auditors including the use of advanced risk assessment methods, the utilization of a diverse portfolio of audit products, including advisory reports, and fresh ideas for leading auditors in a post-pandemic hybrid working environment, during a generational shift occurring in the workforce. The course will use case examples to highlight key concepts and to foster group discussion.
