The FASB: The People, the Process and the Politics

by Paul B.W. Miller and Paul R. Bahnson

Book Overview

The overall goal of this text is to pull back the veil of mystique that prevents many people from understanding an organization that is very important to the accounting profession and to the US economy. The FASB (Financial Account Standards Board) describes why financial reporting exists, why GAAP are needed, and why the FASB was created. This is a supplement for intermediate accounting courses as well as accounting theory courses.
