Accounting and Auditing Disclosure Manual compiles analysis of all relevant GAAP and GAAS requirements in a single volume. In addition, the Manual provides in-depth analysis of more that 4,500 specific disclosure and reporting requirements and 160 accounting and auditing topics, including disclosures on accounting for derivatives, employee stock options, asset transfers, and more. Also included are three sections on reporting requirements for auditors.

The Manual has been completely revised and streamlined. Two new Parts have been added that cover attestation standards, as well as disclosure requirements and footnote and face of the financial statement examples for all international financial reporting standards. In addition, new sections have been added that address the effect of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act on public companies and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).

Organized in the same order as financial statements, the Manual gives you instant access to all the requirements and examples you need to prepare accurate financial statements and auditor's reports. Updated twice a year to keep up with the latest GAAP and GAAS trends. An extensive summary table of contents, numerous cross-references to both the official literature and pertinent sections within the Manual, and a detailed key-word index at the back make the Manual a model of accessibility.

Accounting and Auditing Disclosure Manual is the only work of its kind to deliver all the requirements and examples you need to prepare quickly accurate financial statements and auditors' reports. It compiles all relevant GAAP and GAAS requirements and integrates hundreds of illustrations and examples with specific disclosure requirements.

Other disclosure manuals supply requirements and recommendations, but leave you guessing at the wording of financial statements and footnotes. Accounting and Auditing Disclosure Manual removes the uncertainty and enables you to prepare statements and auditors' reports with complete confidence.

The Manual eliminates disclosure guesswork by answering questions like:

What unqualified opinions should be included in an auditor's report on internal control to effect compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley?
What are the new disclosure requirements for derivatives and hedging activities?
What information must be disclosed for an accounting change?
What are the required disclosures for post-retirement benefits?
What type of report should I issue on a financial forecast that includes a projected sale of a real estate investment?
What information must be shown in the cash flow statement? When should the direct method be used?
What kind of auditor's report should I issue regarding my client's internal control structure over financial reporting?
