Tuesday, April 13 | The new income recognition landscape series: Optional methods limiting acceleration of income (1 pm ET)

Building on the first webcast in which we provided an overview of the final Section 451 regulations, this next webcast in EY's income recognition landscape series will explore the final regulations provisions to limit applicable financial statement (AFS) income acceleration. Taxpayers facing income acceleration under the AFS income inclusion rule should consider the applicability of these provisions and assess the impact on income otherwise required to be accelerated. Specifically, we will discuss common fact patterns and key considerations related to the enforceable right concept, the AFS cost offset method, and the importance of evaluating the tax treatment of a transaction.

The final regulations will require taxpayers to have a detailed understanding of their specific facts to determine if, and how, the rules apply to them. This analysis may guide the decision as to whether taxpayers choose to apply the final regulations early or wait to implement the rules for their 2021 tax year.

An archive of the first webcast in the series (Final Section 451 regulations: overview) is available here.

Date: Tuesday, April 13, 2021

Time: 1:00-2:00 p.m. EDT New York; 10:00-11:00 a.m. PDT Los Angeles
