Accounting Issuing Bodies

The Foster Business Library maintains an extensive Reference Accounting Collection, located behind the Reference Desk in the center of the library's first floor. The arrangement is largely by issuing body and, within issuing body, alphabetically by publication series, rather than by call number.

Issuing bodies, according to arrangement in this collection:

AICPA: American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
FASB: Financial Accounting Standards Board
GASB: Governmental Accounting Standards Board of the Financial Accounting Foundation
PCAOB: Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
CICA: Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants
IASB: International Accounting Standards Board
ICA: Institute of Chartered Accountants
