1. 835-970Real Estate—General835 Interest

   This Subtopic governs when an investor-lender may recognize interest income on loans or advances made to a real estate venture (e.g., a joint venture in which the investor holds an equity interest). The core rule is that interest income must be deferred where collectibility is doubtful or other investors may not bear their share of losses; it is recognized in full only where the venture has expensed the interest (or the investor adjusts its equity pickup as if it had); otherwise a portion is deferred in proportion to the investor's interest in the venture's profits and losses (835-970-35-1).
