GAAP Update Service app for iPhone and iPad

GAAP Update Service is now available on the iPad!

Twice each month, the GAAP Update Service keeps CPAs on top of critical FASB, AICPA, and EITF pronouncements. Each issue provides reliable analyses of need-to-know, recently issued pronouncements, including FASB Topics, Accounting Standards Updates, and EITF Issues.

Each issue is packed with timely information you can put to work right away. Here is some sample coverage that you may have missed:
