While the FASB continues to work on updating GAAP, they have also been diligently working on filling in the gaps in the conceptual framework. This proposal would add chapter 2 to the framework and provides guidance on what is the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes. It addresses the concepts of parent only, combined, and consolidated financial statements. Comments are due January 16, 2023.
