  "summary": "This Subtopic governs how an investment company presents receivables in its statement of assets and liabilities. Receivables must be listed separately at net realizable value by category — dividends and interest, investment securities sold, capital stock sold, and other accounts receivable (including related-party and affiliate expense-reimbursement receivables and variation margin on open futures contracts). Foreign-currency-denominated receivables are translated into the functional currency at current exchange rates and may be grouped with the corresponding functional currency receivables.",

    "This Subtopic addresses an investment company's accounting for receivables (310-946-05-1) and follows the scope of Section 946-10-15 (310-946-15-1).",
    "Receivables shall be listed separately at net realizable value for categories including dividends and interest, investment securities sold, and capital stock sold (310-946-45-1(a)-(c)).",
    "Other accounts receivable — such as receivables from related parties, expense reimbursement receivables from affiliates, and variation margin on open futures contracts — must also be shown separately (310-946-45-1(d)).",
    "The listed categories are illustrative ('among others'), so other material receivable types warrant separate presentation as well (310-946-45-1).",
