The original GAAP documents span thousands of pages, and so are difficult to research. The GAAP Guidebook solves this problem by condensing GAAP into a single volume. This book describes the key elements of each topic, how accounting information is disclosed, and where to look in the FASB Codification source documents for additional information. The text contains hundreds of practical examples that show how to apply GAAP to real-world situations, as well as sample journal entries and usage tips. In short, the GAAP Guidebook serves as a handy reference for accountants who need quick answers to difficult problems. |

| gaap accounting for insurance proceeds: The Fair Value of Insurance Liabilities Irwin T. Vanderhoof, Edward Altman, 2013-04-17 This book explores theoretical and practical implications of reflecting the fair value of liabilities for insurance companies. In addition, the contributions discuss the disclosure of these values to the financial and regulatory communities and auditing firms which are actually calculating this illusive but important variable. It combines contributions by distinguished practitioners from the insurance, accounting and finance fields, with those of prominent academics. One of the central themes of the collection is that adequate disclosure of the true economic value of insurance company liabilities is both possible and desirable. Wherever possible, the insurance valuation process is wedded with modern financial theory. For example, the use of option pricing theory is applied to insurance companies, where the true value of the firm's liabilities is a critical variable. Methods such as cash flow, earned profit and indirect discount are explored. |

| gaap accounting for insurance proceeds: Off-Balance Sheet Activities Joshua Ronen, Anthony Saunders, Ashwinpaul C. Sondhi, 1990-11-30 The objective of Off-Balance Sheet Activities is to gain insights into, and propose meaningful solutions to, those issues raised by the current proliferation of off-balance sheet transactions. The book has its origins in a New York University conference that focused on this topic. Jointly undertaken by the Vincent C. Ross Institute of Accounting Research and New York University's Salomon Center for the study of Financial Institutions at the Stern School of Business, the conference brought together academic researchers and practitioners in the field of accounting and finance to address the issues with the broad-mindedness requisite of a group whose approaches to solutions are as different from each other as their respectively theoretical and applied approaches to the disciplines of finance and accounting. The essays are divided into two sections. The first covers issues surrounding OBS activities and banking and begins with a brief introduction that places the essays into context. OBS activities and the underinvestment problem, whether loan sales are really OBS, and money demand and OBS liquidity are examined in detail. Section two, which also begins with a brief introduction, focuses on issues of securitized assets and financing. A report on recognition and measurement issues in accounting for securitized assets is followed by three separate discussion essays. Other subjects covered include contract theoretic analysis of OBS financing, the use of OBS financing to circumvent financial covenant restrictions, and debt contracting and financial contracting. The latter two contributions are also followed by discussion essays. This unique collection of papers will prove to be an interesting and valuable tool for accounting and finance professionals as well as for academics involved in these fields. It will also be an important addition to public, college, and university libraries. |
| gaap accounting for insurance proceeds: Fundamentals of General Insurance Actuarial Analysis, Second Edition , 2021-05 This text introduces the commonly used, basic approaches for reserving and ratemaking in General Insurance. It can be viewed as the next step in a progression from the mathematical content of the preliminary examinations to the mixture of theory and practice in the Fundamentals of Actuarial Practice Course to a practice-oriented approach. Professionalism requirements are interspersed throughout - setting a context for the work that actuaries perform. A very practical approach to education is given through varied examples that are linked from one chapter to another, and from one part of the textbook to another. The examples encountered in one chapter for four fictitious insurers (Auto Insurer, Dental Insurer, Collision Insurer, and Homeowners Insurer) continue in later chapters, as well as in the appendices. Detailed examples are also provided for two self-insured organizations, a captive insurer and a self-insurance pool. These examples demonstrate how traditional actuarial approaches can be applied to self-insurers, a topic not typically addressed in actuarial educational material. |

| gaap accounting for insurance proceeds: Accounting for M&A Amir Amel-Zadeh, Geoff Meeks, 2020-04-29 Spending on M&A has, in aggregate, grown so fast that it has even overtaken capital expenditure on increasing and maintaining physical assets. Yet McKinsey, the leading management consultancy, reports that Anyone who has researched merger success rates knows that roughly 70% fail. The idea that businesses might be using huge and increasing sums of shareholders’ money for an activity that more often than not leads to failure calls into question the information on which M&A decisions are based. This book presents statistical studies, case material, and standard-setters’ opinions on company accounting before, during, and after M&A. It documents the manipulation of annual accounts by acquirers ahead of share for share bids, biased forecasts of post-merger earnings by bidders, and devices to flatter earnings when recording the deal. It explores the challenges for standard-setters in regulating information flows during and after M&A, and for account-users wishing to learn from financial statements how a deal has affected performance. Drawing on a wide range of international examples, this readable book is targeted not just at accounting specialists but at anyone who is comfortable reading the serious financial press, is intrigued by what is going on in the massive M&A market, and is concerned with achieving better-informed M&A. As such it might be of particular interest to business executives, lawyers, bankers, and investors involved in M&A as well as graduate students interested in researching or learning about the role of accounting in M&A. |
