   ASC 360-20 formerly contained the specialized U.S. GAAP for recognizing profit on sales of real estate (the old FASB Statement No. 66 model with full accrual, installment, cost recovery, deposit, and percentage-of-completion methods, plus sale-leaseback and continuing-involvement rules). Every paragraph in the subtopic has been superseded — mostly by ASU 2014-09 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers) and ASU 2016-02 (Leases). Sales of real estate are now accounted for under ASC 606 if the counterparty is a customer, or under ASC 610-20 for sales of nonfinancial assets to noncustomers, with sale-leaseback transactions governed by ASC 842-40.
