Podcast overview
Convertible debt instruments are complex and navigating the relevant accounting guidance is challenging – particularly when they are settled (i.e. converted). On this podcast, KPMG professionals cut through the complexity by explaining what convertible debt is, why companies use it, and the different accounting models that may apply once it’s converted.
Listen to our next episode, where we discuss how this guidance may change as a result of the recently proposed ASU.
Applicability
