FAQ

Do these costs are capitalized? Can this non-recurring event be classified as an exceptional event?

The Auditor is regularly confronted with this type of question, in order to assess the legality of some accounting options. Reference texts can leave room for interpretation. The optimization of EBITDA and the respect of bank covenants are often the backdrop of this type of solicitation.

Should this goodwill be depreciated?

This issue is very important as depreciations are irreversible. The performance envisaged in the Business Plans before the Covid-19 will for the most part not be achieved. Are the company performance goals simply postponed or irreversibly altered? How can we reflect the true picture of the accounts in this context of global economic uncertainty?

How do I register the revenues of this product?

This question is common when the products sold combine several services or several phases in their realization. The apprehension of their accounting is generally based on analytical information and to specific rules.

Should this contribution be appreciated in real value or net book value?

It is the main challenge of changing control of the post-operation target that generally resolves this recurring issue. It gives place to subtile analyses, always carried out on a case-by-case basis.
