The FASB has issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60) Recognition and Initial Measurement, to address diversity in practice with respect to the initial measurement of joint ventures upon formation. The guidance will provide that the new organization use fair value (with certain exceptions) for the net assets contributed at formation. The standard is effective prospectively for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025, with options for retrospective application.
