In US accounting practices, codification is the current single source of United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). ==FASB Accounting Standards Codification== The codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards documents are superseded as described in FASB Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is nonauthoritative. The Codification reorganizes the thousands of U.S. GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting topics and displays all topics using a consistent structure. It also includes relevant U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), guidance that follows the same topical structure in separate sections in the Codification. To prepare constituents for the change, the FASB has provided a number of tools and training resources.〔Financial Accounting Standards Board. (News Release, 07/01/09 ).〕 While the Codification does not change GAAP, it introduces a new structure—one that is organized in an easily accessible, user-friendly online research system. The FASB expects that the new system will reduce the amount of time and effort required to research an accounting issue, mitigate the risk of noncompliance with standards through improved usability of the literature, provide accurate information with real-time updates as new standards are released, and assist the FASB with the research efforts required during the standard-setting process. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Accounting Standards Codification」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
