Sponsored by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, with additional administrative support from the American Institute of CPAs, the PCFRC represents all non-public business entities regardless of size, and focuses on how standard-setting affects day-to-day technical activities and procedures from a cost/benefit perspective.

“Smith, through his expertise as a preparer, and Stevenson, through his experience as a reviewer of private company financial statements, will both contribute important perspectives to the work of the committee,” said committee chair Judy O’Dell in a statement.

Smith and Stevenson succeed Kathy Barry and H. Marco Kichler, who have completed their terms.
