   ASC 326-30 governs measurement of credit losses on debt securities classified as available-for-sale (AFS), including loans meeting the definition of debt securities classified as AFS. Unlike the pooled CECL model in 326-20, impairment is assessed at the individual security level: when fair value is below amortized cost, the entity determines how much of the decline is credit-related by comparing the present value of expected cash flows with amortized cost, records that amount as an allowance for credit losses (capped at the amount fair value is below amortized cost), and puts the remaining decline in other comprehensive income. If the entity intends to sell or more likely than not must sell before recovery, the allowance is written off and the security is written down to fair value through earnings.
