The leader of a top US standard-setter wants his board to take the next step in using emerging technology to craft accounting rules for local and state governments. Joel Black, chair of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, said a key priority for the board this year is shifting gears from monitoring emerging tools such as artificial intelligence to preparing for its future integration. In his final two years as leader, Black said he intends to craft an enduring focus on how technology can make financial reporting more efficient. GASB establishes standards for state and local governments that follow generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Cities and states' staffing shortages and resource constraints have motivated the board to be especially selective about the projects it takes on, Black said. The board is currently working to update how governments should value infrastructure assets such as bridges and tunnels, as well as develop digital classifications for financial reporting. Black, who previously worked at Mauldin & Jenkins LLC and KPMG LLP, has led the board since 2020. Bloomberg Tax reporter Jorja Siemons spoke with Black about his 2025 priorities.

In this week's Quick Fire Friday episode, Rob interviews Troy Trewin, based in Hobart, Tasmania. Troy is the founder of Grow A Small Business. His current mission is he sits on a handful of boards of directors of different companies, helping them get established; growing their small businesses into something bigger by teaching them the ways to generate funding through coaching. There are different ways to generate working capital for a business venture. A few examples are Venture Capital, Grants, and Crowdfunding. Among the three, the latter has gained significant traction in recent years, because crowdfunding has enabled businesses to raise hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars from anyone with money to invest; a prime example would be Zero Co, in which they managed to raise $5 million in six hours and 27 minutes. Troy helps small-medium business owners who choose to go down this path, by working on the pros and cons, the dos and don'ts, and the overall plan of the crowdfunding campaign to make sure it is a success. This Cast Covers: Raising working capital for a business venture through crowdfunding. Experience that Troy has in the field of crowdfunding. How crowdfunding works and the various forms it can take. Cases of effective crowdfunding campaigns. Steps a small-medium business owner should take before crowdfunding. Positive aspects of crowdfunding campaigns. The drawbacks of crowdfunding campaigns. Considerations for small-medium business owners before using crowdfunding for growth.

Infolge des russischen Angriffskriegs in der Ukraine sind die Erdgaspreise im Vorjahr auf ein Rekordniveau gestiegen. Um Wirtschaft und Verbraucher zukünftig vor extremen Preisschwankungen zu schützen, hat die EU einen Gaspreisdeckel eingeführt. Seit dem 15. Februar dieses Jahres ist er in Kraft. Doch nun scheint es einen Weg für Gashändler zu geben, die Regelung zu umgehen. Der US-Börsenbetreiber Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) betreibt bereits die in Amsterdam ansässige Gasbörse TTF, den wichtigsten europäischen Umschlagplatz für Erdgas. Am Montag hat ICE nun einen neuen Handelsplatz für Gas in London eröffnet. Über die neue Börse sollen Händler die Möglichkeit bekommen, ihre Preise abseits der geregelten Preisobergrenze der EU festlegen zu können. Denn sollte der Gaspreisdeckel der EU in Zukunft greifen, könnten bestimmte Gashandelsgeschäfte verboten werden. „Für den Fall sorgt der Börsenbetreiber jetzt vor. Aber man muss sich auch bewusst sein, dass es im Moment eher eine theoretische Debatte ist“, erklärt Handelsblatt-Redakteur Jan Mallien in der aktuellen Folge von Handelsblatt Today. Mit Host Sandra Groeneveld spricht er über den Gaspreisdeckel und welche Folgen eine Umgehung der Regel für den Gashandel in Europa hat. Außerdem: Kaufen oder mieten? Im neusten Teil der Handelsblatt-Serie „2023 kümmere ich mich um...“ geht es um das Thema Immobilien. Der Chef des Handelsblatt-Geldanlage-Teams Markus Hinterberger erklärt, worauf man achten sollte, wenn man den Kauf oder Bau eines Objektes in Erwägung zieht. *** Exklusives Angebot für Handelsblatt Today-Hörer: Testen Sie Handelsblatt Premium 4 Wochen für 1 € und bleiben Sie immer informiert, was die Finanzmärkte bewegt.

In this GASB episode, Troy interviews Jodie Nevid, the founder of The Seven Effect. She's based in Adelaide, Australia. Jodie had a humble beginning doing business in their family's driveway at the age of 10 selling her old toys and show bags. She was in the corporate world for a while, but shortly after she went back to doing business because it's her passion. In 2014, she launched The Seven Effect, a coaching, and education company. Specializing in helping working women, assisting them in the leap from employee to entrepreneur. The Seven Effect is composed of a team with 10 people, 6 of whom are FTEs. They're earning $550,000 a year and are on track to a million by the end of next year. Of course, her success story wasn't all smooth-sailing. She faced obstacles and complications. Jodie read and studied the 80/20 principle, which asserts that a minority of causes should lead to a majority of results; a good reminder for small-business owners to simplify things and not overwork themselves. This Cast Covers: The Seven Effect is a coaching and education company. Jodie's different businesses before The Seven Effect. Jodie's passion for business. The Seven Effect's growth. The 80/20 principle. The freedom that growing a small business brings. Planning and goal setting, are what every business owner should develop. Building a kickass culture with the four fundamentals. Handling a business partner exiting. Business owners remind themselves to have fun.

Quotes: “The big lesson is in your greatest losses.” — Jodie Nevid “Often they're riddled with fear or overwhelmed or confused about how to make their first six figures.” — Jodie Nevid. “The hardest part is hiring employees who wanted a job, not a career.” — Jodie Nevid. “Not just reading, but truly studying the 80/20 principle and implementing it into your life.” — Jodie Nevid. “Every business owner should have a life plan as well as a business plan.

* Use coupon code PODCAST25 for 25% off this webcast * Webcast URL: https://knowledgewebcasts.com/know-portfolio/gasb-87-is-herewhat-you-should-know-cle-cpe/ New lease accounting rules are coming soon for all government entities. After a COVID-19 one-year delay, Statement No. 87 of the Government Accounting Standards Board, Leases (“GASB 87”) is now required for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2021 and is applicable to both government entity lessees and government entity lessors. The required changes are significant, and the focus of this presentation will be on what you need to know about the new standard. While the new standard is more “principles-based” than “rules-based” as in the past, an understanding of the underlying concepts is critical to making sure this all makes sense. This presentation will present these underlying concepts in a way that promotes an understanding of what you need to do, and what you will need to change for success. The material presented in this program will be useful as an introduction to persons just beginning to think about implementing GASB 87 as well as an affirmation they are on the right track for persons that have already kicked-off the implementation process. In addition, the material will provide guidance on making the implementation process less painful. In this LIVE Webcast, Swenson Advisors, LLP lease accounting veterans Stephen G. Austin and Joel Colbourn will provide an in-depth analysis of how GASB 87 will forever change what you used to know about lease accounting for government entities. Speakers will also provide insight on how to establish processes to ensure continuing compliance going forward.

On this episode of The Alden Report, we're going to talk about some things that most entrepreneurs don't think enough about. That is, most of us are so focused on growing our business that we don't concentrate enough, or even realize, the complicated accounting principles that can immensely effect the bottom line. That's why I'm excited to be joined this week by CPA Dan Nicholson. Dan is an author, entrepreneur and the founder of Nth Degree CPAs whose objective is to help small business owners cultivate good accounting and tax practices to achieve their financial goals. His podcast, Rigging The Game shows listeners how to create and follow a path to the things they truly value while systematically eliminating the risks and financial uncertainty that commonly plague business owners every day. He also has another book coming out called Seeking Certainty. Dan attended Seattle University where he graduated Summa Cum Laude with emphases in both Accounting and E-Commerce Information Systems. Upon graduation, Dan was selected out of a pool of nominees from the nation's top 50 accounting programs for an exclusive fellowship with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). As a member of the GASB team, he was responsible for managing all technical inquiries and assisted what has become Statement No. 53, "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Derivative Instruments." Since then, Dan has worked in finance and accounting roles at Clark Nuber, UPS, WaMu, as well as Deloitte and Touche's Audit and Enterprise Risk Services practices where he was primarily responsible for auditing both the financial statements and IT internal controls around the Treasury cycle at Microsoft.I never thought I'd say this, but Dan makes accounting interesting! While business accounting is something that can be difficult to follow for many small business owners, Dan effectively conveys difficult tax principles in the simplest terms. Dan's services and books are for entrepreneurs and small to mid-size business owners who struggle with uncertainty around their accounting and who want to lessen the risks which come with running a business. Thank you again to Dan for joining us on this week's episode of The Alden Report.

Previdi also talked about how GASB influences how state and local governments spend taxpayer money on such things as schools, firehouses, water treatment plants, and other infrastructure.

Donny Most still swings the GASB for the blue-haired ladies, but in the early 70's, he was the acerbic, somewhat amoral Ralph Malph on the spin-off machine Happy Days, a show that started as a segment of Love American Style in 1972. So it, itself, was a spin-off. On February 25, 1972, the show aired an episode with a segment titled "Love and the Television Set", a story about Richie Cunningham, his family, and friends. The premise and characters would later be used for the television series Happy Days, and the episode would later be recognized as a de facto pilot for the series (it had originally been produced as a pilot for New Family in Town, which had not been picked up). For syndication, the segment was retitled "Love and the Happy Days". Happy Days, in turn, launched an extensive franchise of spinoffs into the 1980s. And that's why we have the dance known as "The Fonzie". Thank you, Love American Style. Still waiting for those Season 2 DVDs. By the way, Happy Days is the reason Julie Pawlowski cut off our conversation when I asked her to see the Stones at Rich Stadium in 1975. It had to be a Tuesday. Fuck you, Happy Days! YOU'RE the reason I wet the bed until I was 25. Donny Most - Rock Is Dead (1976) UA was the same label that released Electric Light Orchestra's Eldorado album. Which to push? This posture reminds me of my old friend Dave Pandolfi. Donny Most - One of These Days (1976) Written by Barry Manilow, the b-side of "It's A Miracle". Donny Most - Blue-Finger Lou (1976) Bill Bixby and Brandon Cruz - Daddy What If (1971) POACA will recall Bill Bixby as TV's The Incredible Hulk. Bobby Bare and Bobby Bare Jr. - Daddy What If (fake audience) (1974) Chuck Berry - Louis to San Francisco/Ma Dear (1968) Elvis Presley - Raised On Rock (1973) Elvis Presley - Way Down (1976) D.A. - Ready ’n’ Steady (1979) "Ready 'n' Steady" is a song written by D. A. Lucchesi and Jim Franks, and performed by the group D. A. The song appeared on Billboard magazine's Bubbling Under the Hot 100 chart for three weeks in June 1979; however, for many years, neither the record nor any information about it or the artist could be found. This led many collectors to label "Ready 'n' Steady" a "phantom record" that did not exist at all until a recording surfaced in 2016 and its artist (by this point deceased) was identified. Frank Zappa - Andy (Live) (1980) Frank Zappa - 13 (Live) (1980) Ted Cassidy - The Lurch (1965) John Astin - Wallflower Pete (1965) B-side to "Querida Mia". Moody Blues - Had To Fall In Love (1978) Blue Jays - This Morning (1975) Neil MacArthur (Colin Blunstone of The Zombies) - She’s Not There (1969) Colin Blunstone- I Don’t Believe In Miracles (1972) Colin Blunstone - Say You Don’t Mind (1972) Denny Laine - Say You Don't Mind (1967) Moody Blues - Boulevard De La Madeleine (1966) Balls - Fight For My Country (1970) L-r: Trevor Burton, originally of The Move (which was that great Birmingham band that preceded Electric Light Orchestra), Alan White (who played in Plastic Ono Band, and later, Yes) and Denny Laine (who played in The Moody Blues, and later, Wings.) Pretty strong connection to The Beatles (The Move would later include Jeff Lynne, who would go on to produce Cloud Nine for George Harrison, as well as "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love" with the remaining Beatles. For a band with such a tiny recorded output, not bad. NOT THAT GOOD, EITHER. Balls - Hound Dog Howling (1971) Denny Laine - The Blues (1973) Laine's solo output is, for lack of a better word, slight.

A Northwest native, Dan grew up in Renton and attended Seattle University where he graduated Summa Cum Laude with emphases in both Accounting and E-Commerce Information Systems. Upon graduation, Dan was selected out of a pool of nominees from the nation’s top 50 accounting programs for an exclusive fellowship with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). As a member of the GASB team, he was responsible for managing all technical inquiries and assisted what has become Statement No. 53, "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Derivative Instruments." (For those who don’t speak CPA, accountants consider setting a national standard to be a big deal).

We were very fortunate to get on the calendar of the current TSCPA Chairperson – Kathy Kapka – for this episode of Life In Accounting: The Where Accountants Go podcast. Finding Your Calling at 50 This episode is about much, much more than just this topic, but one of the facts I found interesting about Kathy's journey was that like many people, she tried out several career paths – tax, audit, governmental related accounting, etc – before finding what was truly the best fit for her – teaching future leaders in our profession. It was while developing the Internal Audit function at the UT Tyler campus that the Dean asked her to teach a course. She was resistant at first – she was an auditor, not a teacher – but she decided to give it a shot. It wasn't long until she realized that the day she looked forward to the most each week was the day that she taught that one course on campus. It was at this point – at about 50 years old – that she found her true calling. TSCPA Her involvement with TSCPA started purely as an effort to educate herself further on GASB. As she got more involved at the chapter though, she was eventually asked to serve in one of the appointed roles at the Executive Board level which ultimately led to being nominated several times for the TSCPA Chair position. Important Mentors Kathy credits several people with helping her along in her journey. Among those mentioned are Barbara Bass, Fred Timmons, and Jeff Gregg. Barbara was the individual that originally encouraged Kathy to become a CPA in the first place, and has since remained a great friend. Fred & Jeff are both dedicated TSCPA volunteers as well as colleagues in the profession and helped Kathy as she grew in her involvement with the CPA association. Kathy is an extremely personable and transparent individual. If you would like to contact her for further information, she can be reached at kkapka@uttyler.edu. I know you will thoroughly enjoy this interview. There's more to come!
