SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS | (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards Quarterly Financial Statements The interim consolidated financial statements of Deere & Company have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. All adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. Management believes the disclosures are adequate to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented. It is suggested these interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the fiscal year. Use of Estimates in Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition Prior to fiscal year 2022, certain goods were shipped to Canadian dealers on a consignment basis under which the risk and rewards of ownership were not transferred to the dealer at the time the goods were delivered. Accordingly, sales were not recorded until a retail customer purchased the goods. The dealer contract in Canada was changed for goods delivered after November 1, 2021, resulting in transfer of control and revenue recognition upon delivery. For certain goods delivered to Canadian dealers prior to November 1, 2021, the dealer consignment terms already in place remain in effect. As of May 1, 2022 and October 31, 2021, the remaining consigned inventory was $46 million and $150 million, respectively. New Accounting Standards The Company closely monitors all Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and other authoritative guidance. ASUs adopted in 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, and ASUs to be adopted in future periods are being evaluated and at this point are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
