  • Description: Each year, the AICPA sponsors its National Conference on SEC Developments where SEC staff are available to discuss current accounting and auditing issues with interested professionals. The conference, which most recently drew almost 2,000 attendees to Washington, D.C., December 7-8, 1999, has become the AICPA's single largest regular conference. Although a wide variety of topics were discussed at the most recent conference, a common thread running through many presentations was the need for transparent, high-quality financial reporting, especially in the area of revenue recognition. The SEC's concerns about earnings management, fraud, and independence issues were discussed. Although the speakers made the SECs concerns clear, the tone was cooperative rather than confrontational, perhaps indicating that the SEC feels the profession is responding to its concerns.
