Requirement 2 COMPLETED - USE FOR REFERENCE
Applying the same accounting principles from one reporting period to another enhances the comparability of accounting information across accounting periods. The FASB's conceptual framework describes consistency as one of the important qualitative characteristics of accounting information. When accounting changes occur, the usefulness of the comparative financial statements is enhanced with retrospective application of those changes, especially when assessing trends.
If a change in accounting principle occurs, the nature and effect of a change should be disclosed. Disclosure is desirable because of the presumption that an accounting principle once adopted will not change.
