Sikka1d The accountancy bodies are hardly in a position to take any action against any major accountancy firm, since the firms are able to muster considerable economic and political muscle both within and outside the insolvency industry.

ICAEW: Who's in charge now? - Accountancy Age Accountancy Age has heaped praise on Wyman for his role in keeping the response to the recent accountancy scandals measured. And, as scandal hit, he assumed the role of champion of UK accountants, whatever their badge, at home and abroad. It would be no exaggeration to say that, without his counsel to ministers and regulators, UK accountants could now be facing mandatory rotation of audit firms, strict limits on the services they could provide and a vastly diminished global perception of their worth. www.accountancyage.com /accountancyage/comment/2038813/icaew-charge   (613 words)

Independence Institute Using scandals at a few publicly-held companies that auditors failed to find or properly disclose as a pretext for the Colorado Board of Accountancy to increase intrusions and witch hunts on average Coloradoans and locally-owned companies without the consent of those whose privacy is invaded is itself a sickening scandal. The Board of Accountancy is once again complaining that it cannot protect the public in Colorado without having the power to sidestep Colorado's 1929 accountant-client privilege law. The means to protect investors that the Colorado Board of Accountancy seeks already have been clearly cemented into federal law, without harming the privacy of Colorado citizens and non-publicly-held businesses. i2i.org /article.aspx?ID=176   (1157 words)

Journal of Accountancy: OCBOA financial statements: here's some practical guidance on a popular accounting option - other comprehensive basis of accounting In cash-and modified-cash-basis statements, many of the measurement principles associated with GAAP simply don't exist; in tax-basis financial statements, the CPA already has addressed the measurement issues in tax returns he or she prepared for the client. When clients ask about why they should let their CPA prepare financial statements using an OCBOA, practitioners should point out that one of the major benefits is that some clients can understand OCBOA statements better than GAAP-basis statements. The advantage results from using another basis of accounting to prepare the financial statements and not from the level of service (audit, review or compilation) the CPA provides. findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m6280/is_4_196/ai_108839657   (1376 words)
