OVERVIEW
Has it really been over 17 years since GASB 34 was issued? It’s hard to believe, but true! GASB is again turning its attention to the government reporting model with the release of an invitation to comment document entitled Financial Reporting Model Improvements – Governmental Funds.
This highly-anticipated reporting model project begins with a focus on accounting and reporting of governmental funds. This phase of the project addresses several potential improvements to governmental fund reporting, including:
- Recognition approaches (measurement focus and basis of accounting).
- Format of the governmental funds statement of resource flows.
- Specific terminology.
- Reconciliation to the government-wide statements.
- For certain recognition approaches, a statement of cash flows.
GASB believes this project will have a significant impact on the foundation of state and local governments’ accounting and financial reporting.
