This narrow Subtopic deals with measurement issues for noncontrolling interests in certain real estate investment trusts (REITs). It contains almost no substantive guidance of its own: its scope simply mirrors Section 974-10-15, and its initial and subsequent measurement sections are essentially unused, with a single cross-reference pointing to Section 974-323-25 for how a REIT accounts for an investment in a service corporation.
Key points (4)
- The Subtopic's stated purpose is to address measurement issues concerning the treatment of noncontrolling interest in certain REITs (810-974-05-1).
- Scope and scope exceptions are the same as the Overall Real Estate—REIT Subtopic, Section 974-10-15 (810-974-15-1).
- Accounting by a REIT for its investment in a service corporation is not addressed here; see Section 974-323-25 (810-974-30-6).
- All other initial measurement paragraphs (810-974-30-1 through 30-5) and all subsequent measurement paragraphs (810-974-35-1 through 35-5) are marked 'Paragraph not used,' so general Topic 810 consolidation guidance governs.
For students. Practically, this is a signpost Subtopic: don't expect REIT-specific consolidation rules here—apply ASC 810-10 (including the noncontrolling interest and VIE guidance) and follow the cross-reference to 974-323 for service corporation investments. The common misunderstanding is assuming REITs get special consolidation measurement treatment because an industry Subtopic exists.
