The formulas
- Closing = opening + gains in earnings + gains in OCI + purchases + issues - sales - settlements + transfers in - transfers out
How it works
ASC 820-10-50-2(c) requires, for recurring Level 3 measurements, a reconciliation from opening to closing balances showing total gains and losses in earnings and in OCI, purchases, sales, issues and settlements each separately, and transfers into and out of Level 3.
ASU 2018-13 removed the full rollforward for nonpublic entities, which instead disclose transfers into and out of Level 3 and purchases and issues. Public entities keep the full reconciliation.

Common questions
Should sales and settlements be netted?
No. The disclosure presents purchases, sales, issues and settlements separately.
When are transfers measured?
At the point set by the entity's policy for when transfers between levels are deemed to occur, applied consistently to transfers in and out.
What about unrealized gains on items still held?
Public entities also disclose the change in unrealized gains and losses for the period in earnings and OCI on items held at period end.
