On February 19, 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) endorsed the Private Company Council (PCC) Issue 13-02 Applying Variable Interest Entity Guidance to Common Control Leasing Arrangements. This is the third accounting alternative of the PCC endorsed by the FASB. A qualifying private company will be able to elect to early adopt this accounting alternative for financial statements not yet made available for issuance once the FASB has issued a written accounting standards update (ASU).
