- 210-20Offsetting210 Balance Sheet
ASC 210-20 states the general principle that offsetting assets and liabilities on the balance sheet is improper unless a right of setoff exists, and sets the four conditions for a right of setoff (210-20-45-1): two parties owe each other determinable amounts, the reporting party has the right to set off, intends to set off, and the right is enforceable at law (including in bankruptcy). It also provides a narrow exception permitting (but not requiring) offsetting of payables and receivables under same-counterparty, same-settlement-date repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements accounted for as collateralized borrowings that meet all conditions in 210-20-45-11, and it imposes extensive netting disclosures for derivatives, repos/reverse repos, and securities borrowing/lending subject to enforceable master netting arrangements.
