Download or read book Setting Standards for Financial Reporting written by A. Bowdoin Van Riper and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1994-07-21 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book begins with an overview of how and why the present self-regulatory arrangement for setting standards for financial reporting in the private sector came about in 1973. A brief description of the new structure is followed by a discussion of the essential elements of meaningful self-regulation. A schism emerged between advocates of neutrality and objectivity in standard setting and those who think the primary concern should be for possible economic and social consequences. Early clashes between traditional views and newer insights are described, setting the stage for an account of serious resistance to change. Powerful interests mount determined efforts to thwart the standard setters, undercutting not only self-regulation, but also the intent of the federal securities acts of 1933 and 1934. The practical and philosophical bases for the opposing views are examined, and recommendations are presented for ensuring continuation of private-sector standard setting despite the intensity of these views.

Book excerpt: The Accounting and Review Services Committee (ARSC) has issued Statement on Standards for Accounting and Review Services No. 21, Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services: Clarification and Recodification. The issuance of SSARS No. 21 represents a major milestone in the ARSC’s project to clarify and revise the standards for reviews, compilations, and engagements to prepare financial statements. To assist readers to easily locate information, a detailed table of contents is provided at the beginning of the SSARS. This statement recodifies and supersedes all outstanding SSARSs through No. 20, except SSARS No. 14, Compilation of Pro Forma Financial Information. SSARS No. 21 is effective for reviews, compilations, and engagements to prepare financial statements for periods ending on or after December 15, 2015 but early implementation is permitted.

Download or read book Contemporary Issues in Accounting Regulation written by Stuart McLeay and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Issues in Accounting Regulation looks at accounting regulation in a different way. The opening chapters explore the tension between the power of the state and the forces of the market, and other aspects of the political dimension to accounting regulation. The book also examines the process of setting accounting standards, highlighting the crucial role of standard setters in assessing the level of public support for an issue in the face of opposing positions taken by powerful interest groups. In addition, the book provides an introduction to the theoretical framework of accounting regulation, looking at choices between controversial accounting methods and at markets that are characterized by asymmetry of information and beliefs. The final chapters of the book are concerned with creative accounting, deregulation of financial reporting by smaller companies, and the link between price regulation and accounting policy choices.
