```json
{
  "summary": "ASC 430-972 was the deferred revenue guidance for common interest realty associations (CIRAs) — e.g., condominium and homeowners' associations — addressing when assessments and similar member charges collected in advance had to be deferred rather than recognized. All of its substantive paragraphs (05-1, 15-1, 25-1) were superseded by ASU 2014-09, so the subtopic is now an empty shell. CIRA revenue and deferral questions are instead resolved under ASC 606 and the related contract liability guidance.",
  "key_points": [
    "Every remaining paragraph in this subtopic — 430-972-05-1 (overview), 430-972-15-1 (scope), and 430-972-25-1 (recognition) — is marked 'Paragraph superseded by Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09.'",
    "Because the guidance was superseded by ASU 2014-09, deferred revenue for common interest realty associations is now analyzed under ASC 606 as a contract liability rather than under industry-specific Topic 430 guidance.",
    "The subtopic retains no recognition, measurement, presentation, or disclosure requirements; citing it as authoritative support is incorrect for periods after the ASU 2014-09 effective date.",
    "Related CIRA industry guidance that survives is found in Topic 972, not in this deferred revenue subtopic."

  "student_note": "The practical lesson is a research lesson: a subtopic can still appear in the Codification while containing nothing but superseded paragraphs. Students often quote 430-972 for HOA/condo association assessments collected in advance, when the correct authority is now ASC 606's contract liability guidance together with Topic 972.",
