FASB Proposes Taxonomy Improvements for the Credit Losses Standard
FASB proposed the taxonomy improvements for the proposed Accounting Standards Updates on Targeted Transition Relief for Topic 326 (Financial Instruments—Credit Losses) and Topic 805 (on Business Combinations—Revenue from Contracts with Customers). The comment period on the proposed taxonomy improvements ends on March 08, 2019 for topic 326 and on April 30, 2019 for topic 805.
