Partial presentations of prospective financial information. Sections 900 and 1000 of the Guide provide limited guidance on accountants' services on prospective financial statements for internal use only and partial presentations, respectively. However, much of that guidance was based on rule 201(e) of the AICPA …

Exposure Drafts, Comment Letters, and Statements of Position

The Professional Ethics Executive Committee proposes an interpretation of the Code of Professional Conduct that provides definitions of certain terms used in the Code. The defined terms determine the applicability of Code rules to the various segments of Institute membership. For example, a number of the rules apply to members performing "professional services," other rules apply to members in "public practice," and several rules contain the term "client." The proposed interpretation defines those terms and thereby provides guidance on how the rules of conduct apply to members. The Professional Ethics Executive Committee recognizes the diverse responsibiities and structures that advisory …

Rule 101 and interpretation 101-1 specify transactions, interests, or relationships that impair independence, if they exist during various time periods. One of the time periods referred to in interpretation 101-1 is: "The period of a professional engagement." The committee proposes to define the period of a professional engagement as commencing when the member is engaged to perform the professional service and continuing until the relationship is terminated by the member or the client. The Professional Ethics Executive Committee receives many inquiries from members who are uncertain as to whether they may issue compilations or review reports when the members' independence …

This proposed statement of position (SOP) amends chapter 2 in the AICPA Industry Audit Guide Audits of Banks and chapter 2 in the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide Audits of Savings and Loan Associations.

The CPA should: 1. Request that management provide access to all reports of examinations and related correspondence. …
