This course covers the significant provisions of the most recent pronouncements and proposed pronouncements from the FASB, the Private Company Council, the Auditing Standards Board and the Accounting and Review Services Committee. The course is presented from the perspective of a small firm practitioner who services or works for non-publicly traded entities. The majority of the class time will be spent discussing the standards that, in the instructor’s 39 years of experience, have the broadest application to the local practitioner. If there is new corporate income tax legislation, we will cover it too from the perspective of Topic 740. As always, the floor is open to discuss whatever current accounting and auditing topics (non-governmental) participants may want to cover. A complete, thorough and fast-moving review of all things privately held A&A!
