| Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block] | 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Founded in 1959, Generac Holdings Inc. (the Company) is a leading global designer and manufacturer of a wide range of power generation equipment and other engine powered products serving the residential, light-commercial and industrial markets. Generac’s power products are available globally through a broad network of independent dealers, distributors, retailers, wholesalers and equipment rental companies, as well as sold direct to certain end user customers.Over the years, the Company has executed a number of acquisitions that support its strategic plan (as discussed in Item 1 of the Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the year ended December 31, 2017). A summary of acquisitions affecting the reporting periods presented include:
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries that are consolidated in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). All intercompany amounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared by the Company and have not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operation and cash flows, have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the year ended December 31, 2017. New Accounting Standards Not Yet AdoptedIn February 2016, the Financial Standards Accounting Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016 -02, Leases . This guidance is being issued to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and by disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The guidance should be applied using a modified retrospective approach and is effective for the Company in 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017 -12, Derivatives and Hedging – Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities . This guidance was issued to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements, and to make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The standard is effective for the Company in 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.There are several other new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.Recently Adopted Accounting Standards On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2017 -07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost . The new standard requires presentation of certain components of net periodic pension cost as non-operating expense. The new standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. The changes in presentation of the components of net periodic pension cost were applied retrospectively to all periods presented.On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016 -15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The changes in presentation of the proceeds from beneficial interests in securitization transactions were applied retrospectively to all periods presented.On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014 -09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , and all related amendments (the “new revenue recognition standard”) using the full retrospective method, which requires application to all periods presented.The impact of adopting the above standards on the Company’s previously reported condensed consolidated financial statements is as follows:

Note 2 - Revenue Recognition |
3 Months Ended |

Mar. 31, 2018 | |
| Notes to Financial Statements | |
| Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] | 2. Revenue RecognitionThe Company’s revenues primarily consist of product sales to its customers. The Company considers the purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements, to be the contracts with the customers. For each contract, the Company considers the commitment to transfer products, each of which is distinct, to be the identified performance obligations. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the transfer of product, which is generally the price stated in the contract specific for each item sold, adjusted for the value of expected returns, discounts, rebates, or other promotional incentives or allowances offered to our customers. Expected returns for damaged or defective product are estimated using the expected value method based upon historical product return experience. Discounts and rebates offered to customers are typically defined in the master sales agreements with customers, and therefore are recorded using the most likely amount method based on the terms of the contract. Promotional incentives are defined programs offered for short, specific periods of time, and are estimated using the expected value method based upon historical experience. The Company does not expect the transaction price for revenue recognized will be subject to a significant revenue reversal. As the Company’s product sale contracts and standard payment terms have a duration of less than one year, it uses the practical expedient applicable to such contracts and does not consider the time value of money. Sales, use, value add and other similar taxes assessed by governmental authorities and collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The Company has elected to recognize the cost for freight activities when control of the product has transferred to the customer as an expense within cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Product revenues are recognized at the point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery to the customer. To determine when control has transferred, the Company considers if there is a present right to payment; and if legal title, physical possession, and the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset has transferred to the customer. As substantially all of the Company’s revenues are recognized at a point in time, the amount of unsatisfied performance obligations at each period end is not material. The Company's contracts have an original expected duration of one year or less. As a result, the Company has elected to use the practical expedient to not disclose its remaining performance obligations.At the request of certain customers, the Company will warehouse inventory billed to the customer but not delivered. Unless all revenue recognition criteria have been met, the Company does not recognize revenue on these transactions until the customer takes possession of the product.While the Company’s standard payment terms are less than one year, the specific payment terms and conditions in its customer contracts vary. In some cases, customers prepay for their goods; in other cases, after appropriate credit evaluation, an open credit line is granted and payment is due in arrears. Contracts with payment in arrears are recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as accounts receivable, while contracts where customers pay in advance are recognized as customer deposits and recorded in other accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The balance of customer deposits (contract liability) was $8,028 and $7,034 at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company typically recognizes revenue within one year of the receipt of the customer deposit.The Company offers standard warranty coverage on substantially all products that it sells, and accounts for this standard warranty coverage as an assurance warranty. As such, no transaction price is allocated to the standard warranty, and the Company records a liability for product warranty obligations at the time of sale to a customer based upon historical warranty experience. Refer to Note 9, “Product Warranty Obligations,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the Company’s standard warranties.The Company also sells extended warranty coverage for certain products, which it accounts for as service warranties. In most cases, the extended warranty is sold as a separate contract. As such, extended warranty sales are considered a separate performance obligation and extended warranty transaction price is separate and distinct from the product. The extended warranty transaction price is initially recorded as deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and amortized on a straight-line basis to selling and service expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, as an offset to warranty expense, over the life of the contracts following the standard warranty period. For extended warranty contracts that the Company sells under a third party marketing agreement, it is required to pay fees to the third -party service provider, and classifies these fees as costs to obtain a contract. The contract costs are deferred and recorded as other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The deferred contract costs are amortized to selling and service expense in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income consistent with how the related deferred revenue is recognized. Refer to Note 9, “Product Warranty Obligations,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the Company’s extended warranties.The Company offers other services, including remote monitoring, installation and maintenance services in limited circumstances. These other services are currently not material, accounting for less than one percent of revenue.Refer to Note 7, “Segment Reporting,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the Company’s disaggregated revenue disclosure. The information discussed above is applicable to each of the Company's product classes. |

| Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest [Text Block] | 3 . Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest On March 1, 2016, the Company acquired a 65% ownership interest in PR Industrial S.r.l. and its subsidiaries (Pramac). The 35% noncontrolling interest in Pramac had an acquisition date fair value of $34,253, and was recorded as a redeemable noncontrolling interest in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, as the noncontrolling interest holder has within its control the right to require the Company to redeem its interest in Pramac. The noncontrolling interest holder has a put option to sell his interest to the Company any time within five years from the date of acquisition. Within the first two years from the date of acquisition, the put option price was based on a fixed amount if voluntarily exercised. Subsequently, the put option price is based on the greater of the fixed amount or a multiple of earnings, subject to the terms of the acquisition. Additionally, the Company holds a call option that it may redeem commencing five years from the date of acquisition, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain circumstances. The call option price is based on a multiple of earnings that is subject to the terms of the acquisition. Both the put and call option only provide for the complete transfer of the noncontrolling interest, with no partial transfers of interest permitted.The redeemable noncontrolling interest is recorded at the greater of the initial fair value, increased or decreased for the noncontrolling interests’ share of comprehensive income (loss), or the estimated redemption value, with any adjustments to the redemption value impacting retained earnings, but not net income. However, the redemption value adjustments are reflected in the earnings per share calculation, as detailed in Note 12, “Earnings Per Share,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The following table presents the changes in the redeemable noncontrolling interest:
The redemption value adjustment recorded in the three month period ended March 31, 2018 relates to the adjustment required to reflect the redeemable noncontrolling interest value as a multiple of earnings after two years from the date of acquisition, in accordance with the terms of the acquisition. |

| Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | 4 . Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company records all derivatives in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, Derivatives and Hedging , which requires derivative instruments be reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of hedging relationships. The Company is exposed to market risk such as changes in commodity prices, foreign currencies and interest rates. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.Commodities The Company is exposed to price fluctuations in commodities it uses as raw materials; primarily steel, copper and aluminum; and periodically utilizes commodity derivatives to mitigate the impact of these potential price fluctuations on its financial results and its economic well-being. These derivatives typically have maturities of less than eighteen months. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company entered into the following commodity forward contracts:
At March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the Company had five, one and one commodity contracts outstanding, respectively, covering the purchases of copper.Because these contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting, the related gains and losses are recorded in cost of goods sold in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Net pre-tax gains (losses) recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $(156 ) and $183, respectively.Foreign Currencies The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk as a result of transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The Company periodically utilizes foreign currency forward purchase and sales contracts to manage the volatility associated with certain foreign currency purchases and sales in the normal course of business. Contracts typically have maturities of twelve months or less. As of March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the Company had 22, 28 and 19 foreign currency contracts outstanding, respectively.Because these contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting, the related gains and losses are recorded in other, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Net pre-tax gains (losses) recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $227 and ($201 ), respectively.Interest Rate Swaps In October 2013, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements; in May 2014, the Company entered into one interest rate swap agreement; and in 2017, the Company entered into 20 additional interest rate swap agreements. The Company formally documented all relationships between interest rate hedging instruments and the related hedged items, as well as its risk-management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedge transactions. These interest rate swap agreements qualify as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, the effective portions of the gains or losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amount of gains (net of tax) recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $6,647 and $440, respectively. The cash flows of the swaps are recognized as adjustments to interest expense each period. The ineffective portions of the derivatives’ changes in fair value, if any, are immediately recognized in earnings.Fair Value The following table presents the fair value of all of the Company’s derivatives:
The fair value of the commodity contracts and foreign currency contracts are included in other accrued liabilities, and the fair value of the interest rate swaps is included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2018. The fair value of the commodity and foreign currency contracts are included in prepaid expenses and other assets, and the fair value of the interest rate swaps are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017. Excluding the impact of credit risk, the fair value of the derivative contracts as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is an asset of $13,375 and $4,703, respectively, which represents the amount the Company would receive upon exit of the agreements on those dates. |

Note 5 - Fair Value Measurements |

| Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | 5 . Fair Value Measurements ASC 820 -10, Fair Value Measurement , defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring basis or nonrecurring basis. ASC 820 -10 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the pronouncement establishes a three -tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1 ) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2 ) inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3 ) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.The Company believes the carrying amount of its financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, short-term borrowings and ABL facility borrowings), excluding Term Loan borrowings, approximates the fair value of these instruments based upon their short-term nature. The fair value of Term Loan borrowings, which have an aggregate carrying value of $904,044, was approximately $904,587 (Level 2 ) at March 31, 2018, as calculated based on independent valuations whose inputs and significant value drivers are observable.For the fair value of the derivatives measured on a recurring basis, see the fair value table in Note 4, “Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The fair value of all derivative contracts is classified as Level 2. The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of derivative contracts, all of which have counterparties with high credit ratings, were based on quoted market prices or model driven valuations using significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data. The fair value of derivative contracts above considers the Company’s credit risk in accordance with ASC 820 -10. |

| Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | 7 . Segment Reporting The Company has two reportable segments for financial reporting purposes - Domestic and International. The Domestic segment includes the legacy Generac business and the impact of acquisitions that are based in the United States, all of which have revenues that are substantially derived from the U.S. and Canada. The International segment includes the Ottomotores, Tower Light, Pramac and Motortech businesses, all of which have revenues that are substantially derived from outside of the U.S. and Canada. Both reportable segments design and manufacture a wide range of power generation equipment and other engine powered products. The Company has multiple operating segments, which it aggregates into the two reportable segments, based on materially similar economic characteristics, products, production processes, classes of customers and distribution methods.The Company's product offerings consist primarily of power generation equipment and other engine powered products geared for varying end customer uses. Residential products and commercial & industrial products are each a similar class of products based on similar power output and end customer. The breakout of net sales between residential, commercial & industrial, and other products by reportable segment is as follows:

| Product Warranty Disclosure [Text Block] | 9 . Product Warranty Obligations The Company records a liability for product warranty obligations accounted for as assurance warranties at the time of sale to a customer based upon historical warranty experience. The Company also records a liability for specific warranty matters when they become known and are reasonably estimable. The following is a tabular reconciliation of the Company’s product warranty liability:
Additionally, the Company sells extended warranty coverage for certain products, which it accounts for as a service warranty. The sales of extended warranties are recorded as deferred revenue, and typically have a duration of five to ten years. The deferred revenue related to extended warranty coverage is amortized over the duration of the extended contract period, following the standard warranty period, using the straight-line method. The Company believes the straight-line method is appropriate because the performance obligation is satisfied based on the passage of time. The amortization of deferred revenue is recorded to selling and service expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income as an offset to warranty expense. The following is a tabular reconciliation of the deferred revenue related to extended warranty coverage:
The timing of recognition of the Company’s deferred revenue balance related to extended warranties at March 31, 2018 is as follows:
In the second quarter of 2017, the Company launched a post-sale extended warranty marketing program. In the program’s agreement, the Company is required to pay fees to a third -party service provider based on the number of extended warranty contracts sold, which it classifies as costs to obtain a contract. The contract costs are deferred and recorded as other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The deferred contract costs are amortized to selling and service expense in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income consistent with how the related deferred revenue is recognized. The balance of deferred contract costs as of March 31, 2018 was $3,759, and $127 of amortization was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2018. There were no deferred contract costs recorded as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Product warranty obligations and extended warranty related deferred revenues are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows:

| Debt Disclosure [Text Block] | 10 . Credit Agreements Short-term borrowings are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows:
Long-term borrowings are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows:
The Company’s credit agreements originally provided for a $1,200,000 term loan B credit facility (Term Loan) and currently include a $300,000 uncommitted incremental term loan facility. The maturity date of the Term Loan is May 31, 2023 . The Term Loan is guaranteed by all of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries, and is secured by associated collateral agreements which pledge a first priority lien on virtually all of the Company’s assets, including fixed assets and intangibles, other than all cash, trade accounts receivable, inventory, and other current assets and proceeds thereof, which are secured by a second priority lien. The Term Loan initially bore interest at rates based upon either a base rate plus an applicable margin of 1.75% or adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 2.75%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. Beginning in the second quarter of 2014, and measured each quarterly period thereafter, the applicable margin related to base rate loans is reduced to 1.50% and the applicable margin related to LIBOR rate loans is reduced to 2.50%, in each case, if the Company’s net debt leverage ratio, as defined in the Term Loan, falls below 3.00 to 1.00 for that measurement period.In May 2017, the Company amended the Term Loan, modifying the pricing of the facility by reducing the applicable margin rates to base rate plus a fixed applicable margin of 1.25% or adjusted LIBOR rate plus a fixed applicable margin of 2.25%. Further, the amendment removed the pricing grid that would reduce the applicable margin if a net debt leverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00 was achieved. As a result, the Company does not anticipate any future catch-up gains or losses resulting from changes in contractual interest rates to be recorded in the statements of comprehensive income. The amended Term Loan pricing, however, is still subject to the 0.75% LIBOR floor. In connection with this amendment and in accordance with ASC 470 -50, the Company capitalized $1,432 of fees paid to creditors as deferred financing costs on long-term borrowings in the second quarter of 2017. In December 2017, the Company once again amended the Term Loan, which further reduced the applicable margin rates to base rate plus a fixed applicable margin of 1.00% or adjusted LIBOR rate plus a fixed applicable margin of 2.00%. Additionally, the amendment eliminated the Excess Cash Flow payment requirement for 2017, and eliminates future related payment requirements if the Company’s secured leverage ratio is maintained below 3.75 to 1.00 times. In connection with this amendment and in accordance with ASC 470 -50, the Company capitalized $2,346 of fees paid to creditors as original issue discount and deferred financing costs on long-term borrowings in fourth quarter of 2017. As of March 31, 2018, the Company’s secured leverage ratio was 2.47 to 1.00 times, and the Company was in compliance with all Term Loan covenants. There are no financial maintenance covenants on the Term Loan.The Company’s credit agreements also provide for a $250,000 senior secured ABL revolving credit facility (ABL Facility). The maturity date of the ABL Facility is May 29, 2020. Borrowings under the ABL Facility are guaranteed by all of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries, and are secured by associated collateral agreements which pledge a first priority lien on all cash, trade accounts receivable, inventory, and other current assets and proceeds thereof, and a second priority lien on all other assets, including fixed assets and intangibles of the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries. ABL Facility borrowings bear interest at rates based upon either a base rate plus an applicable margin of 0.50% or adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 1.50%, in each case, subject to adjustments based upon average availability under the ABL Facility. No amounts were outstanding under the ABL Facility at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, short-term borrowings consisted of borrowings by our foreign subsidiaries on local lines of credit, which totaled $31,414 and $20,602, respectively. |

| Treasury Stock [Text Block] | 11 . Stock Repurchase Program In August 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a $200,000 stock repurchase program, which the Company completed in the third quarter of 2016. In October 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an additional $250,000 stock repurchase program. Under the second program, the Company may repurchase up to $250,000 of its common stock over the 24 months following the date of approval. The Company may repurchase its common stock from time to time, in amounts and at prices the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions and other considerations. The repurchases may be executed using open market purchases, privately negotiated agreements or other transactions. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common stock and general market and economic conditions, applicable legal requirements, and compliance with the terms of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness. The repurchases may be funded with cash on hand, available borrowings or proceeds from potential debt or other capital markets sources. The stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company repurchased 560,000 shares of its common stock for $25,656, funded with cash on hand. There were no share repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

| Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | 1 3 . Income Taxes The effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were 25.3% and 39.1%, respectively. The decrease in the effective income tax rate in 2018 was primarily due to a reduction of the US federal corporate tax rate as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act) enacted on December 22, 2017. The SEC staff issued SAB 118, which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act. The Company's accounting for certain elements of the Tax Act is incomplete. However, reasonable estimates of certain effects were able to be made and, therefore, provisional adjustments were recorded in the Company’s financial statements as of, and for the period ended, December 31, 2017. There were no significant adjustments recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to provisional amounts recorded in 2017 as a result of the Tax Act. For further discussion on the impact of the Tax Act, see Item 8 (Note 13 “Income Taxes”) of the Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the year ended December 31, 2017. |

| New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | New Accounting Standards Not Yet AdoptedIn February 2016, the Financial Standards Accounting Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016 -02, Leases . This guidance is being issued to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and by disclosing key information about leasing arrangements.
