1. 325-40Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets325 Investments—Other

   ASC 325-40 governs how a holder recognizes interest income on beneficial interests in securitized financial assets — both a transferor's retained interests in securitizations accounted for as sales under Topic 860 and purchased beneficial interests. The holder measures accretable yield at acquisition as the excess of cash flows expected to be collected (or contractual cash flows, for PCD beneficial interests) over the initial investment (or initial amortized cost basis), and accretes it into interest income using the effective yield method. Expected cash flows must be updated each period; favorable or adverse changes are run first through the credit loss guidance in Topic 326, with any residual change adjusting accretable yield prospectively.
