  1. 325-946Financial Services—Investment Companies325 Investments—Other

    This subtopic tells an investment company how to account for its "other investments" (investments other than debt and equity securities). Such investments are initially measured at transaction price, including commissions and other charges that are part of the purchase transaction, and are subsequently measured at fair value. Its scope mirrors the investment company Overall Subtopic scope in Section 946-10-15.

  2. 325-958Not-for-Profit Entities325 Investments—Other

    ASC 325-958 governs how not-for-profit entities account for "other investments"—those that are neither debt nor equity securities, derivatives, equity-method or consolidated investees, nor investments held by a financially interrelated entity—such as real estate, non-security mortgage notes, and oil and gas interests. Purchased other investments are initially measured at acquisition cost (including transaction fees) and contributed or agency-acquired ones at fair value. Subsequent measurement depends on the type of NFP: higher education institutions and voluntary health and welfare entities may elect carrying value or fair value, while other NFPs elect fair value or the lower of cost or fair value, applied consistently to all other investments.
