In the ever-evolving landscape of financial reporting and compliance, governmental entities face the challenges posed by standards such as GASB 87 and GASB 96. Phoenix Business Consulting, a leader in SAP solutions, stands at the forefront, offering tailored services to assist organizations in achieving and maintaining compliance with these regulatory frameworks.

Understanding GASB 87 and GASB 96

GASB 87:

The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 87 fundamentally changes the accounting for leases by governmental entities. It requires entities to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, providing a more transparent representation of their financial position.

GASB 96:

GASB 96, on the other hand, addresses subscription-based information technology arrangements, introducing new guidelines for reporting these services in financial statements. This standard aims to improve the consistency and comparability of financial reporting related to cloud computing and other subscription-based technology arrangements.
