ESSAY ON: FASB and Accounting Guidance for Consolidation of Special-Purpose Entities

Number of Pages 7

This research paper: This 7 page report discusses the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) anticipated approval of an Exposure Draft attempting to establish appropriate guidance and standards for the consolidation of special-purpose entities (SPE) may result in implementation of procedures that, hopefully, will clarify rules and applications. The reason such an issue is of particular concern at this point in time is the fact that the inappropriate accounting practices at Enron included the use of SPEs and the ways in which the venerable Arthur Anderson accounting firm chose to look away from how SPEs were being used there. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
