Original Standards (Unamended)

For the most current and up-to-date source of official FASAB accounting and reporting guidance for federal entities, please access the current version of The FASAB Handbook of Accounting Standards and Other Pronouncements, As Amended (FASAB Handbook), not the individual standards on this page.

Because the FASAB Handbook presents text as amended by later actions of the board, references to the FASAB Handbook are more reliable. If you chose to use the individual Statements of Federal Financial Accounting Standards (SFFAS)—which are presented unamended here—please review this list of FASAB documents to identify documents that may have amended any pronouncements you access here. In addition, some pronouncements found below may indicate that certain tables or charts are omitted. Each chart can be found in the FASAB Handbook.

The links below will direct you to the original, unamended pronouncements, which should not be considered authoritative; they have been made available for historical reference and research purposes only.
