F1 Pages 27-28 Extraordinary Items section deleted;U.S. GAAP has eliminated the concept of extraordinary items. Items of income or loss that are unusual or infrequent or both should be reported separately as part of income from continuing operations. U.S. GAAP and IFRS are now aligned in the treatment of unusual and/or infrequent items.

Various references to Extraordinary Items were deleted from these pages. Throughout the textbook, references to the IDEA mnemonic were changed to IDA.
F1 Following page 46, new topic 5 (on pages 45 and 46 in the new V.1.2 textbook) In 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15—Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. A new topic, Going Concern, was added.
F1 Appendix
p. 64 in V1.1 FAR textbook
A line-item for Going Concern was added to the Appendix: IFRS vs. U.S. GAAP. The addition is at the bottom of page F1-65 in the V1.2 FAR textbook.
F2 Page 26
Note at bottom of page
Corrected note should read:
*Note: The brackets under the Years 1, 2, and 3 columns represent income, not losses. Thus, Year 1 net income per books is $5,000 and the subsequent $650 adjustment would decrease income by $650 to ($4,350).
F2 Page 27
Item 5
Corrected item 5 should read:
5. The $400 paid in Year 3 represents prepaid rent. The ($400) adjustment to Year 3 removes the incorrect charge to income, and the 12/31/Year 3 balance sheet is adjusted to properly reflect the asset prepaid rent.

Item G. Bond Issuance Costs
The text for Bond Issuance Costs was rewritten to align with FASB ASU
2015-15 requiring that bond issuance costs be treated as a reduction of the bond carrying amount rather than as an intangible asset. Throughout the textbook, mentions of "bond issue cost" have been changed to "bond issuance cost" to conform to the
language of ASU 2015-15.
