Publisher Description

Abstract Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, introduces a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the data companies use for such measurements. The new hierarchy, together with additional footnote disclosures, is expected to improve existing practices concerning fair value reporting. This paper examines the key provisions of the fair value hierarchy and assesses its impact on the usefulness of reported financial information. The hierarchy's influence on the external auditor's role is also discussed.
