Publisher Description

ABSTRACT When a new accounting standard is proposed a question arises as to whether or not the impact on earnings will be significant. The recently issued FAS 154 mandates that enterprises no longer report the cumulative-effect losses and gains of a change in accounting method. Based on 1998 through 2004 data, the removal of the cumulative-effect loss or gain from the income statement would significantly impact reported earnings.
