GASB has proposed its Exposure Draft that would improve the financial reporting model. The proposal includes changes to MD&A, extraordinary items, presentation of proprietary funds and implements the short-term financial resource measurement focus for governmental funds which was introduced in an ED earlier this month.

Comments are due Feb. 26, 2021. Comments should be addressed to the Director of Research and Technical Activities, Project No. 3-25, and emailed to director@gasb.org.
