10、 China and U。S.A. Teaching Hours 3 hoursTeaching contentsThis lesson will begin with some forewords about the course to let students know exactly the course nature， objectives， requirements etc。 Then the five sections of this lesson will be discussed logically。 1。 Accounting information: users, uses
11、， and GAAP in U。S.A。With the discussion of capital markets， accounting information will be induced。 Accounting， the language of business， has been described as the process of identifying, measuring, recording， and communicating economic information to permit informed judgments and decisions by users
12、 of information. Accounting provides a link between the economic activities of a company and decision makers who are interested in the company。 These decision makers who use accounting information can be divided into two major groups: external users （such as investors) and internal users （the compan
13、ys management）。 Because of their different relationships to the company, the two groups have somewhat dissimilar information needs. Questions will be raised as to examples of external users and internal users and their different information needs。 Then differences of financial accounting and manager
14、ial accounting will be discussed. Financial accounting is the information accumulation， processing, and communication system designed to satisfy the investment and credit decision-making information needs of external users。 Financial accounting information is presented in published financial stateme
15、nts. Managerial accounting is the information accumulation, processing， and communication system designed to meet the decisionmaking information needs of internal users。 The format for internal reports is determined by the company. The system is constrained by the need for information and the cost o
16、f providing that information. After students got an overall impression about accounting and accounting information， focus will be conducted to financial accounting and financial reporting. Financial reporting is the process of communicating financial accounting information about a company to externa
17、l users, primarily through the companys annual report. The annual report includes three major financial statements： the balance sheet， income statement, and statement of cash flows， as well as notes to the financial statements。 Many companies include the statement of changes in stockholders equity a
18、s a fourth major financial statement。 Most financial statements are audited by an independent certified public accountant, who expresses an opinion as to the fairness, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles， of the financial statements and accompanying notes。In its audited finan
19、cial statements， a company must follow generally accepted accounting principles （GAAP)， the guidelines, procedures, and practices required for recording and reporting accounting information。 GAAP define accepted accounting practices and standards of reporting at a particular time. They have evolved
20、over many years， with the involvement of different policy-making bodies. Emphasis should be put to students that there is no single document including all of the standards for accounting, although the FASB Financial Accounting Research System (FARS） includes most accounting standards in its electron
21、ic data base。 2. The development of accounting standards in U。S.A。A brief history introduction about the development of accounting standards in U.S.A. will give students a full impression about accounting standards in U。S.A。 From 1938 to 1959 the Committee on Accounting Procedure （CAP） of the AICPA
22、issued 51 Accounting Research Bulletins， which are still part of GAAP unless specifically superseded or amended。 Because of criticism of the processes of formulating accounting principles， the AICPA replaced the CAP with the Accounting Principles Board in 1959。 From 1959 to 1973 the APB issued 31 Ac
23、counting Principles Board Opinions, many based on Accounting Research Studies。 Unless amended or rescinded， APB Opinions are also still part of GAAP。 Development of accounting principles by the APB was criticized。 The structure of the Financial Accounting Standards Board （FASB), which replaced the A
24、PB in 1973， was designed to meet these criticisms。 The FASB issues several types of pronouncements， including Statements of Financial Accounting Standards, Interpretations, Technical Bulletins, and Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts. Before issuing a statement of concepts or standards， the
25、FASB usually completes a multistage process designed to develop accounting standards efficiently and with due process, in a public forum. Because accounting policy decisions are complex and part of a broader social system, input from interested parties is important. Negotiation and compromise are of
26、ten necessary during the development of fair, acceptable standards。 Here， a question can be raised to discuss that why FASB adopts political and social involvement methods in its standardssetting process。 3。 Other organizations currently influencing GAAP in U。S.A.Other organizations currently influe
27、ncing GAAP in U.S。A。 will be discussed then, including SEC， AICPA, EITF, CASB, IRS， AAA， IASB， GASB， G4+1 and Several professional associations. Emphasis will be given to the fact that the Securities and Exchange Commission has the legal authority to prescribe accounting principles and practices for
28、 usually all companies issuing publicly traded securities。 To date， the SEC has usually allowed accounting principles to be formulated in the private sector， but has occasionally exerted pressure on the CAP, APB， and FASB。 In addition， the SEC administers the extensive disclosure requirements of the
29、 Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Companies are required to file forms, such as Form 10K, electronically with the SEC and these forms are located in the SECs EDGAR。 Enron case will be given as an example。 The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants is the pr
30、ofessional organization for all certified public accountants in the U。S。 The FASB Emerging Issues Task Force （EITF) identifies significant emerging accounting issues and develops consensus positions on accounting for these issues. The Cost Accounting Standards Board （CASB）, a congressional agency， i
31、s charged with setting standards of accounting for negotiated federal contracts and subcontracts. The Internal Revenue Service （IRS） administers the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. These provisions do not always reflect the goals of financial accounting。 However， they do at times influence
32、the choice of accounting methods and procedures。 The American Accounting Association (AAA） is an organization comprised primarily of academicians and practicing accountants。 The AAA attempts to influence the development of formal accounting pronouncements through education and persuasion. The Intern
33、ational Accounting Standards Board (IASB） has as its goals to develop and promote the use of global accounting standards， and to bring national accounting standards into agreement with international standards. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board （GASB） operates under the auspices of the Fina
34、ncial Accounting Foundation. The G4 + 1 is a group of standard-setting boards that strives to influence the development and harmonization of useful high quality accounting standards for international capital markets. The instructor can also insert some new development situations based on update mate
35、rials in the website of FASB and IASB etc。 4。Ethics in the accounting environmentStudents will be remind of that accountants are often faced with ethical dilemmas （ethical conflicts) in their professional roles。 Because of the important role of accounting in society， accountants must maintain high e
36、thical standards. The AICPA Code of Professional Conduct (CPC) includes six basic principles： members should （a) exercise sensitive professional and moral judgments in carrying out their responsibilities； (b） serve the public interest, honor the public trust, and demonstrate commitment to profession
37、alism; （c) perform professional responsibilities with the highest sense of integrity; （d） maintain objectivity, be free from conflicts of interest, and be independent in fact and appearance; (e)observe due care in practice; and （f) follow CPC principles in determining the scope and nature of service
38、s to be provided。5。 Comparison of the development of accounting standards in China and in U。S.A。 Students will be required to find materials about development of accounting standards in China。 Then discussion based on the materials and knowledge learned in this lesson about development of accounting
39、 standards in U。S. will be induced in class。 The case is intended for three purposes: first， with comparison ， students will know the differences clearly and grasp new knowledge deeply。 Second, student will learn how to find related materials and this ability is very crucial to future independent st
40、udies. Third, discussion in class will cultivate students creative and critical thinking , which is very important in accounting nowadays。 Pedagogical NotesSince this course is the first time that students learn professional knowledge based on original English textbook and bilingual teaching， some s
41、tudents will feel hard to grasp all the knowledge， this lesson as the first lesson of the course should be taught carefully。 And instructors should pay attention to the difficulties students might felt. The last section of this lesson, which is a discussion part, instructors should try to cultivate
42、students creative and critical thinking. Creative thinking involves the use of imagination and insight to solve problems by finding new relationships （ideas) among items of information. Critical thinking involves the logical analysis of issues， using inductive or deductive reasoning to test new rela
43、tionships (ideas) to determine their effectiveness。Lesson 2： FINANCIAL REPORTING： ITS CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORKLearning ObjectivesAfter careful study , students will be able to: 1.Explain functions of conceptual framework。 2.Understand the relationship among the objectives of financial reporting. 3.Ident
44、ify the general objective of financial reporting。 4。Describe the three specific objectives of financial reporting. 5。Discuss the types of useful information for investment and credit decision making. 6.Explain the qualities of useful accounting information. 7.Understand the accounting assumptions an
45、d conventions that influence GAAP。8.Define the elements of financial statements。Teaching Hours 5 hoursTeaching contentsThis lesson will begin with emphasis about functions of theory basis in accounting。 1。 FASB conceptual frameworkA brief background introduction about FASB conceptual framework will
46、be conducted. Students should be remind of FASBs position in U。S。A。， which is different from that of China。 The FASB has been charged with developing a conceptual framework of accounting theory and with establishing standards for financial accounting practice。 The conceptual framework， which is inte
47、nded to provide a theoretical foundation for consistent accounting standards, has been essentially completed， with seven Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts issued. In the development process of these seven statements， FASB has divided the conceptual framework activities into several project
48、s。2.Objectives of financial reporting FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Concepts No。 1 deals with the objectives of financial reporting. These objectives relate to general-purpose financial reporting of companies。 That is， they are to meet the needs of a variety of external， rather than internal, users. This is a point should be emphasized。 Three broad objectives of financial reporting, which proceed from the more general to the more specific， are identified in the Statement: （a）The general objective is to provide information that is useful to pr
