The attached is an exposure draft of a proposed Statement on Standards for Accounting and Review Services (SSARS) entitled Performance of Review Engagements. SSARS No. 1, Compilation and Review of Financial Statements (AICPA, Professional Standards, vol. 2, AR sec. 100.24-.33), currently provides guidance on analytical procedures, inquiries, and other procedures applicable to a review of financial statements whether prepared under generally accepted accounting principles or a comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles.

The proposed Statement would be effective for reviews of financial statements for periods ending on or after December 15, 2004. The proposed Statement would revise SSARS No. 1.
