For many years, GAAP has been considered by many smaller businesses as too burdensome to apply. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has made some progress in rendering GAAP more user-friendly, but it remains mysterious and confounding to many. This course aims to de-mystify GAAP by unpacking its basic features and illustrating how understanding GAAP-based financial statements can be a valuable, and sometimes essential, skill.
Among the topics covered in the course are:
- The fundamental differences between the GAAP, tax, and cash basis of accounting
- Revenue recognition under GAAP
- How GAAP interacts with business tax returns
- Understanding the variety of auditor opinions
- Basic approaches to disclosure
- Why GAAP and you should be friends
