As intimated in the paper’s introductory section, the subject article analyzes the confusion surrounding who should develop accounting standards to regulate governmental accounting. According to O’Donoghue and Hardiman (1989), the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) was created in 1984. Furthermore, during its establishment, the Financial Accounting Foundation granted GASB the power to develop generally accepted accounting principles (GAAPs) for governmental entities. Despite having this authority, O’Donoghue and Hardiman (1989) lament that GASB has failed to fully use it. GASB only reacted after the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released three standards aimed at governmental entities. According to O’Donoghue and Hardiman (1989), had the GASB failed to issue its standards, those issued by the FASB would have applied to governmental entities.
