New Revenue Standard Date Deferred
The FASB recently issued ASU 2015-14 to defer the effective date of its new revenue recognition standard by one year. As such, it now takes effect for public entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. All other entities have an additional year. However, early adoption is permitted for any entity that chooses to adopt the new standard as of the original effective date.
