Brief Contents

Through many editions, this textbook has continued to reflect the constant changes taking place in the GAAP environment. This edition continues this tradition, which has become even more significant as the financial reporting environment is exploding with major change. Here are three areas of major importance that are now incorporated extensively into this edition of the textbook.

Convergence of GAAP and IFRS One of the most important innovations shaping our capital markets was the idea of GAAP. It might be said that it would be even better if we had one common set of accounting rules for the whole world, which would make it easier for interna- tional investors to compare the financial results of companies from different countries. Fortunately, GAAP and international accounting standards have converged to result in a number of common standards between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). And you have the chance to be on the ground floor as we develop for you the similarities and differences in the two systems that ultimately will be one.

A Fair Value Movement The FASB believes that fair value information is more relevant to users than historical cost. As a result, there is more information that is being reported on this basis, and even more will occur in the future. The financial press is full of articles discussing how financial institutions must fair value their assets, which has led to massive losses during the recent credit crisis. In addition, additional insight into the reliability related to fair values is being addressed and disclosed to help investors make important capital allocation decisions. We devote a considerable amount of material that discusses and illustrates fair value concepts in this edition.

A New Way of Looking at Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) Learning GAAP used to be a daunting task, as it is comprised of many standards that vary in form, completeness, and structure. Fortunately, the profession has developed the Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification (often referred to as the Codification). This Codification provides in one place all the GAAP related to a given topic. This textbook is the first to incorporate this Codification—it will make learning GAAP easier and more interesting!

Intermediate Accounting is the market-leading textbook in providing the tools needed to under- stand what GAAP is and how it is applied in practice. With this Sixteenth Edition, we strive to con- tinue to provide the material needed to understand this subject area. The textbook is comprehen- sive and up-to-date. We also include proven pedagogical tools, designed to help you learn more effectively and to answer the changing needs of this course.

We are excited about Intermediate Accounting, Sixteenth Edition. We believe it meets an important objective of providing useful information to educators and students interested in learning about both GAAP and IFRS. Suggestions and comments from users of this textbook will be appreciated. Please feel free to e-mail any one of us at AccountingAuthors@yahoo.com.

“If this textbook helps you appreciate the challenges, worth, and limitations of financial reporting, if it encourages you to evaluate critically and understand financial accounting concepts and practice, and if it p repares you for advanced study, profes- sional examinations, and the successful and ethical pursuit of your career in accounting or business in a global economy, then we will have attained our objectives.”
