1 Institutional Retirement and Trust Methodology Key for ASC 820 Reporting How to use the Methodology Key This Key is sorted by ascending Asset number. Asset /Category information on this Key is minor asset category information. Match Asset number and from the Hierarchy Report to the same fields on this Key to determine Methodology. Asset description information on the Hierarchy and Level 3 Activity Reports may not match on this Key. Asset s/categories may have multiple methodologies. Information in the column reflects when information is scheduled to be received. Please e: The Level 3 Activity Report provides all activity for the accounting period in each level 3 asset. Level 3 assets with no activity for the accounting period will not appear on the Level 3 Activity Report.
