In times of economic uncertainty, modification accounting and reporting becomes a challenge. The number of modifications to report generally increases, as does the complexity of each, with the potential for errors and oversight becoming more commonplace.
Different types of modifications are accounted for in different ways. You need a clear understanding of the modification terms and accounting guidance to map out the right approach and generate documentation and disclosures that are audit ready.
