In March 1979, the NCGA (now known as the National Council on Governmental Accounting) published a document entitled Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Principles (Statement 1). That document defines combined columnar financial statements by fund types and account groups as basic financial statements rather than financial statements of individual funds and account groups and also updates, clarifies, amplifies, and reorders other portions of GAAFR. Since the guide recognizes GAAFR, it is necessary to amend the guide to recognize Statement 1 as an authoritative modification of GAAFR.
