On December 12, 2011, PwC's Engineering & Construction practice hosted Part V of its special industry webcast series discussing the joint standard-setting activity currently underway between the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and International Accounting Standards Board (lASB). The webcast, Contractors' statements, revenue recognition and leasing exposure drafts, focused on the latest exposure draft released by the FASB/IASB and included a discussion of the financial implications, specifically the percentage-of-completion method and the related construction cost accounting guidance as a standalone model. It also covered potential implications beyond finance.
