The Single Audit Act auditing standard, A-133, was implemented in 1997. It required that Tribes comply with the GAGAS (Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (issued by the Comptroller General of the United States)) which are applicable to financial audits. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) of the Financial Accounting Foundation has issued a new standard, Statement # 34, which applies to the basic financial statements for state and local governments. GASB 34 was issued in June 1999 and requires that Tribes complete audits in accordance with this new standard, and also requires implementation by 2002, 2003, and 2004 depending on the size of the Tribal organization. It is imperative that Tribes implement an accounting system which will result in the appropriate data being recorded and reported. This seminar is for all accounting, finance, and Tribal Treasurer's office personnel.
