Comprehensive Implementation Guide UpdateProject Plan
Project Description: This project will update the Comprehensive Implementation Guide for the effects of new pronouncements and for additional issues that have come to the attention of staff.
Background: To date, the GASB staff has issued 11 stand-alone Implementation Guides, which have been consolidated into the Comprehensive Implementation Guide. The guide is updated annually through the addition of new questions and answers and the amendment or deletion of previous questions and answers that no longer are relevant due to subsequently issued guidance or to the passage of time.
Current Developments: A draft of the project staff's proposed additions, deletions, and edits for the 2008-2009 update was distributed to the project's advisory committee in March 2008. The comment deadline was April 14, 2008.
