Derivatives & Hedging Exposure Draft
Hedging Project Overall
Simplify hedge accounting for preparers Significantly change many aspects of hedge accounting:
Qualifying transactions Documentation Effectiveness vs Ineffectiveness Presentation and Disclosure
#cbizmhmwebinar 30 #cbizmhmwebinar 30
Derivatives & Hedging
Qualifying Transactions Component Hedging
A non-financial hedged item may be a contractually specified component or ingredient linked to an index or rate stated in the contract.
Benchmark Interest Rates Variable rate An entity may designate the contractually specified
index rate in cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, thus eliminating the concept of benchmark interest rates for variable-rate financial instruments.
Fixed rate Retain the existing definition of benchmark interest rates and also add the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index (SIFMA) to the list of acceptable rates
Fair Value Hedge Designate a portion of the term of a fixed rate instrument
#cbizmhmwebinar 31 #cbizmhmwebinar 31
Derivatives & Hedging
Hedge Documentation Hedge Documentation
Initial quantitative testing aspect of hedge documentation requirements may be completed before or at the three-month effectiveness testing period. No longer required to be contemporaneous
The timing of the preparation of all other hedge documentation would not change.
Short Cut An entity may apply a long-haul method if for some reason use of
the shortcut method was or is no longer appropriate (method must be documented at inception).
#cbizmhmwebinar 32 #cbizmhmwebinar 32
Derivatives & Hedging
Effectiveness vs Ineffectiveness Testing Effectiveness Threshold
Retain the highly effective threshold Hedge Effectiveness Testing
Initial quantitative testing of all hedges required Exceptions only if they meet the requirements for the shortcut or
critical terms match methods. Required to perform subsequent quantitative effectiveness
testing only if facts and circumstances change Critical Terms Match
Assume maturity and forecasted transaction are the same if the occur within 31 days
#cbizmhmwebinar 33 #cbizmhmwebinar 33
Derivatives & Hedging Exposure Draft
Presentation and Timing The change in the fair value of the hedging derivative would
no longer be split between effective and ineffective portions. Fair value hedges If the hedging relationship meets the
highly effective threshold, the entire change in the fair value of the derivative would be recorded in the same income statement line as the hedged item.
Cash flow hedges If the hedging relationship meets the highly effective threshold, the entire change in the fair value of the derivative would be recorded in other comprehensive income.
Amounts reclassified from AOCI will be presented in the same income statement line item as the hedged item.
#cbizmhmwebinar 34 #cbizmhmwebinar 34
Derivatives & Hedging
Disclosures Require additional disclosures related to cumulative basis
adjustments for fair value hedges Amend certain tabular disclosures in current GAAP to focus
on the impact of hedge accounting on income statement line items, and
Require enhanced qualitative disclosures to describe quantitative goals, if any, set to achieve hedge accounting objectives.
#cbizmhmwebinar 35 #cbizmhmwebinar 35
SEC Activity
Definition of smaller reporting company Increase public float requirement from $75 million to
$250 million Retain accelerated filer status threshold at $75 million
Disclosure Simplification Core company business information Company performance, financial information and
future prospects Risk and risk management Securities of the registrant

PREPARING FOR YEAR END
Going Concern Evaluation
#cbizmhmwebinar 37 #cbizmhmwebinar 37
Managements Evaluation of Going Concern
Prior Guidance New Guidance
Authoritative Source Auditing standards Accounting standards
Time period One year from the balance sheet date
One year from the date the financial statements are issued/available to be issued
Addresses When must an auditor include an emphasis-of-matter paragraph in the auditors report
When must management disclose the existence of substantial doubt and managements plans
US GAAP requires a presumption of going concern, until liquidation becomes eminent
#cbizmhmwebinar 38 #cbizmhmwebinar 38
Managements Evaluation of Going Concern
Requires management to evaluate If substantial doubt about an entities ability to continue
as a going concern exists If substantial doubt does exist, then management must
evaluate if it is probable that Managements plans to alleviate the substantial doubt will be
effectively implemented Managements plans to alleviate the substantial doubt will
mitigate the conditions and events that gave rise to the substantial doubt
#cbizmhmwebinar 39 #cbizmhmwebinar 39
Substantial Doubt
Substantial Doubt Conditions and events, in aggregate, indicate it is
probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they come due within one year after the date the financial statements are issued (available to be issued)
Probable events that are likely to occur This is a higher threshold then more-likely-than-not
Consider known and reasonably knowable conditions
#cbizmhmwebinar 40 #cbizmhmwebinar 40
Considerations
Qualitative and quantitative information
Financial condition Liquidity Conditional and unconditional obligations Employee disputes and work stoppages Compliance with laws and regulations
Managements plans
Selling assets Borrowing funds or restructuring debt Delay expenditures Raise capital
#cbizmhmwebinar 41 #cbizmhmwebinar 41
Going Concern - Disclosures
Conditions and events that raise(d) substantial doubt Managements evaluation of those conditions and events in
relation to the entitys ability to meet its obligations
Managements plans that are intended to alleviate (alleviated) the substantial doubt
If the substantial doubt is not alleviated, an explicit statement about the entities ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued.
When substantial doubt is alleviated in a subsequent period explanation of how the relevant conditions were resolved
#cbizmhmwebinar 42 #cbizmhmwebinar 42
Example Evaluation
At December 31,
2016 an entity has a significant debt due February 15, 2017
Management determines it is
unable to pay off the debt when it is due
On February 15, 2017
management signs an extension on the
debt to February 28, 2018
The financial
statements are available for issuance
on March 15, 2017
What additional
analysis is necessary?
#cbizmhmwebinar 43 #cbizmhmwebinar 43
Example Evaluation
The debt is due within one year of the March 15, 2017 date of the financial statements. Management evaluates whether the entity will be able to
repay the debt at February 28, 2018 Consider operating budgets and plans Liquid assets
Evaluate managements plans Ability to refinance the debt
#cbizmhmwebinar 44 #cbizmhmwebinar 44
Example Evaluation
Management concluded that it was unable to satisfy the obligation on February 28, 2018 Substantial doubt about the entitys ability to continue as a
going concern exists Managements plan mitigates the substantial doubt
because management expects to be able to extend or refinance the debt Disclosure is made that the condition of debt raises the risk of
substantial doubt The conclusion that the lack of liquidity leads to substantial doubt
existing Managements plan to refinance that alleviates the substantial
doubt
#cbizmhmwebinar 45 #cbizmhmwebinar 45
Transition Issues and Effective Date
Internal control Processes may be needed to evaluate and document
the going concern evaluation
Identify the appropriate members of management
Determine the form of documentation
Consider information reporting needs
Effective for calendar year ended: December 31, 2016 Interim periods within annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2016
#cbizmhmwebinar 46 #cbizmhmwebinar 46
FEDERAL TAX UPDATE
#cbizmhmwebinar 47 #cbizmhmwebinar 47
New Partnership Audit Rules Effective Date
On November 2, 2015 President Obama signed into law the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (BBA).
The new provisions are generally effective for partnership tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. Partnerships may elect however, to apply the new rules to any returns filed for tax years beginning after November 2, 2015 New Opt In regulations were issued August 4 with requests
for comments by October 4.
The BBA provides a fundamental change in the way that examination and collection of tax from partnerships will be conducted.
#cbizmhmwebinar 48 #cbizmhmwebinar 48
Background and Reason for the Change
According to a 2014 report from the Government Accountability Office, the IRS audited less than 1% of the 2012 income tax returns of large partnerships (i.e., those with greater than $100 million in assets), essentially the same audit rate as individual income tax returns. By contrast, over 27% of large C corporations were audited.
The Joint Committee on Taxation has estimated that
the new partnership audit rules will raise $9.3 billion over the next 10 years. Clearly, Congress is giving a mandate to the IRS to audit more large partnerships.

Operative Provisions - General
The purpose of the new audit and adjustment regime is to streamline partnership audits into a single set of rules for both the partners and the partnership.
The new regime generally provides for assessment and collection of under paid taxes, penalties and interest at the partnership level.
The new regime applies to all partnerships, except for certain qualifying partnerships that affirmatively elect out of the new rules.
#cbizmhmwebinar 51 #cbizmhmwebinar 51
Operative Provisions - Electing Out
A qualifying partnership can elect out of the new audit procedures. Generally a qualifying partnership must meet three requirements in
order to elect out. Number of partners Type of partners Form of election
The election to opt out is an annual election. The election is made on a timely filed return and will include a disclosure of the name and TIN of each partner of such partnership and the partnership is required to notify each partner of such election. In the case of an S corporation partner, the partnership will need
to disclose the name and TIN of each shareholder of the S corporation.
#cbizmhmwebinar 52 #cbizmhmwebinar 52
Operative Provisions - Electing Out - Number of Partners
The election out of the new rules is available for partnerships with 100 or fewer partners.
The number of partners is based upon the number of statements (i.e. K-1s) that are issued during the year. Any transfers of partnership interests during the year are included as the requirement is based upon the number of statements issued.
In the case of an S corporation partner, the number of statements issued by the S corporation must be taken into account in determining the 100 or fewer test.
#cbizmhmwebinar 53 #cbizmhmwebinar 53
Operative Provisions - Electing Out - Type of Partners
In order to be eligible to elect out of the new rules, all partners of the partnership must be a Individual C corporation Any foreign entity that would be treated as a C
corporation were it domestic S corporation Estate of a deceased partner
Noticeably absent from the list of qualifying partners are partnerships and trusts
#cbizmhmwebinar 54 #cbizmhmwebinar 54
Operative Provisions - Consistency Requirement
The new regime provides that a partner shall treat an item consistently with the partnerships reporting of such item If there is an underpayment due to an inconsistent
treatment, any tax shall be assessed and collected as if it was a math error on the partners return
A partner can take an inconsistent position if proper
disclosures have been made.
#cbizmhmwebinar 55 #cbizmhmwebinar 55
Operative Provisions Designation of Partnership Representative
The new regime provides that the partnership shall designate a partner (or other person) with a substantial presence in the United States as the partnership representative who shall have the sole authority to act on behalf of the partnership under the new audit procedures. If an individual has not been designated by the partnership the Secretary may select any person as the partnership representative.
The partnership representative will essentially bind the partnership and partners by their actions.
#cbizmhmwebinar 56 #cbizmhmwebinar 56
Operative Provisions - Partnership Adjustments - New Terms
The new audit regime introduces some new terms that need to be defined as Reviewed Year - the partnership taxable year to
which the item being adjusted relates Adjustment Year - the partnership taxable year in
which In the case of an adjustment pursuant to the decision of a
court in a proceeding brought under Section 6234; such decision becomes final;
In the case of an administrative adjustment request under Section 6227, such AAR is made or;
In any other case, notice of the final partnership adjustment is mailed under Section 6231.
#cbizmhmwebinar 57 #cbizmhmwebinar 57
Operative Provisions - Partnership Adjustments - New Terms
Imputed underpayments are determined for any reviewed year by netting all adjustments (income, gain, loss or deduction) and multiplying the net result by the highest rate of tax in effect for the reviewed year under Section 1 or 11.
Adjustments for items of credit increase or decrease
the amount determined in the prior sentence.
#cbizmhmwebinar 58 #cbizmhmwebinar 58
Operative Provisions - Partnership Adjustments - When Taken into Account
If the adjustment results in an imputed underpayment, the partnership shall pay the amount due in the adjustment year.
Any adjustment that does not result in an imputed
underpayment, shall be taken into account by the partnership in the adjustment year As a reduction in non-separately stated income or an
increase in a non-separately stated loss; or In the case of a credit, as a separately stated item
#cbizmhmwebinar 59 #cbizmhmwebinar 59
Operative Provisions - Partnership Adjustments - Modification of the Imputed Underpayment
There are currently three ways to modify the calculation of the imputed underpayment amount.
Modification of applicable highest tax
rate
Tax-exempt partners
Amended returns of partners
#cbizmhmwebinar 60 #cbizmhmwebinar 60
Operative Provisions - Partnership Adjustments - Modification of the Imputed Underpayment
Amended returns of partners - one or more of the partners file an amended return for the taxable year of the partner which includes the end of the reviewed year of the partnership and such returns take into account all adjustments properly allocated to such partner (and any other taxable year with respect to which any tax attribute is affected by reason of such adjustments) and payment of any tax due is included with such return - then the imputed underpayment amount shall be determined without regard to the portion of the adjustments so taken into account.
In the case of a reallocation of an item from one partner to
another - all affected partners must file an amended return to modify the imputed underpayment amount.
#cbizmhmwebinar 61 #cbizmhmwebinar 61
Operative Provisions - Partnership Adjustments - Modification of the Imputed Underpayment
Tax-exempt partners - partnership can provide that a partner is tax-exempt as defined under Section 168(h)(2).
Modification of applicable highest tax rate - if ordinary income - in the case of a C corporation; if capital gain or qualified dividend income in the case of an individual. An S corporation is considered an individual.
#cbizmhmwebinar 62 #cbizmhmwebinar 62
Operative Provisions - Alternative to Payment of Imputed Underpayment by Partnership - Push-Out
A partnership can elect to push-out the adjustment to the partners in the
reviewed year.
The election is made within 45 days of
receiving the notice of final partnership adjustment and is
revocable only with the consent of the
Secretary.
#cbizmhmwebinar 63 #cbizmhmwebinar 63
Operative Provisions - Alternative to Payment of Imputed Underpayment by Partnership - Push-Out
The partner calculates the additional tax that would be required for the reviewed year plus any additional tax for any intervening year - and adds such amount to their tax return for the year that they receive the push-out statement In other words, if a partner receives the push-out notice in
2020 for a 2018 adjustment, they would take the 2018 tax and 2019 tax if applicable and add it to their 2020 tax return when filed. The statute appears to be clear that an increase in tax is taken into account - it does not mention a reduction.
Interest is determined at the partner level and is charged at
the rate of the short term AFR plus 5% instead of 3% (i.e., a toll charge of 2% that otherwise would have been due).
#cbizmhmwebinar 64 #cbizmhmwebinar 64
