4 THE CPA S PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS: WHAT ARE THEY? WHO SETS THEM? WHAT ARE THE KEY ISSUES TODAY? SALLY L. HOFFMAN, CPA, CFE BERDON LLP DECEMBER 2005 I. SARBANES-OXLEY AND THE PCAOB A. Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 On July 0, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ( Sarbanes-Oxley or the Act ). As the most far-reaching securities legislation since the 90 s, Sarbanes-Oxley dramatically impacted the financial reporting responsibilities for publicly held companies, their officers and directors, and their advisors. Among many other things, it changed the landscape of standard setting and oversight of the accounting profession, for services relating to publicly held companies. The following is a brief overview of the provisions impacting the accounting profession and related standard setting. B. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board The Act established a non-governmental board, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ( PCAOB or the Board ) ( comprised of five full-time members appointed by the Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ). Two members (and only two) must be CPAs. The Board has oversight responsibility for accounting firms and CPAs performing audits of publicly held companies. It is responsible for, among other things: Registering public accounting firms Establishing or adopting auditing, quality control, ethics, independence, and other standards relating to the preparation of audit reports for issuers Conducting inspections (the successor to peer review for public companies) of registered accounting firms Imposing appropriate sanctions to enforce compliance with the rules and laws Significantly, the PCAOB has the responsibility for functions previously performed by the accounting profession itself, thus eliminating self regulation for those professionals serving issuers. The PCAOB has the responsibility for establishing auditing, attestation and quality control standards for auditors of public companies, a function previously performed by the Auditing Standards Board ( ASB ) of the American Institute of Public Accountants ( AICPA ). The ASB continues to have the responsibility and authority to establish standards for audits of privately held companies. While the Board is required to co-operate on an ongoing basis with designated professional groups of accountants and advisory groups engaged in standard setting, it has the authority to
5 amend, modify, repeal or reject any standards suggested by these groups. All standards approved by the PCAOB require approval by the SEC before becoming effective.
