Common gaming activities include table games, slot machines, keno, bingo, and sports and race betting.

Currently, an entity that is required to adopt IFRS 9 should apply IFRS 9 rather than IAS 39 when accounting for derivatives.

“For example, the activities do not constitute an entity’s ongoing major or central operations (Master Glossary – Revenue).”

“This may result in the reimbursement being recorded as other income or as contra-expense.”
7
“If the NRE and the subsequent production units are in a single contract or the contracts meet the criteria for contract combination in paragraph 606-10-25-9, this may result in revenue being recognized over a period longer than the preproduction period. For example, it may result in revenue being recognized over subsequent production units.”

The concept of ordinary activities is derived from the legacy definition of revenue in FASB Concepts Statement 6, which states that revenues “are inflows or other enhancements of assets of an entity or settlements of its liabilities (or a combination of both) from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or other activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing major or central operations.”

Q&A 3 of the FASB Staff Implementation Q&As summarizes the views presented by the TRG members at the TRG’s April 2016 meeting and states that “[t]he [FASB] staff’s view is that incentive-based capital allocations are within the scope of Topic 606.”

The legacy definition of revenue in paragraph 78 of FASB Concepts Statement 6 states that “[r]evenues are inflows or other enhancements of assets of an entity or settlements of its liabilities (or a combination of both) from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or other activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing major or central operations.” In December 2021, the FASB updated the definition of revenue in FASB Concepts Statement 8, Chapter 4 (the “FASB Concepts Statement”). Under the revised definition, revenues are ”inflows or other enhancements of assets of an entity or settlements of its liabilities (or a combination of both) from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or carrying out other activities.” Notably, the FASB eliminated the phrase ”ongoing major or central operations.” However, the Board has not amended the ASC master glossary and ASC 606 to conform the Codification’s definitions of revenue and a customer with the FASB Concepts Statement’s revised definition of revenue, and the FASB Concepts Statement does not represent authoritative guidance. Therefore, we do not expect the updated definition of revenue in the FASB Concepts Statement to result in a change in practice regarding the determination of which transactions should be presented as revenue under ASC 606. See Section 3.2.8 for more information.

After originating a loan (or selling an originated loan but retaining rights to service the loan), a financial institution may perform services that include communicating with the borrower; collecting payments for interest, principal, and other escrow amounts; and performing recordkeeping activities.
16
Deposit-related fees are those that a financial institution charges to a customer for amounts on deposit with the financial institution. Fees may be charged to give customers access to their funds and to cover other activities, including recordkeeping and reporting. In addition, fees may be transaction-based (such as fees to withdraw funds through an automated teller machine) or may not be transaction-based (such as account maintenance fees).
17
Fees charged by a financial institution to a borrower on a loan, for example, in return for the financial institution’s acting as a third-party guarantor on the borrower’s debt.
18
As noted by the FASB staff, some entities believe that there is a close link between ASC 860’s asset and liability remeasurement requirements and the collection of servicing fees (which gives rise to mortgage servicing income).
