    Acme Incorporated Accounting Practises

    This paper is an analysis of Acme Incorporated accounting practices on deferred income taxes and the discrepancies between tax and book depreciation methods found by the Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Stephanie Delaney, the new director of corporate taxation.

    Acc 541 Accounting Standards Board Paper

    The significance of the FASB can be realized by examining the history of formalized accounting theory development. The first organization to officially begin research on accounting standards and theory was the American Accounting Association (AAA) in 1935. This group was formerly the American Association of the University Instructors in Accounting (AAUIA), formed in 1916 to develop accounting curriculum. In 1936, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) was formed by merging the American Society of Certified Public Accountants and the American Institute of Accountants (AIA). The AICPA formed the Committee on Accounting Procedure (CAP) in 1936 to establish generally accepted practices. The official pronouncements of the CAP were Accounting Research Bulletins (ARBs). In…
