Tiivistelmä: | Although financial accounting practices and disclosures are frequently altered, such changes appear to be constrained by "institutional thinking". In this paper, I explore an instance of institutional thinking - the emergence and development of an FASB project on financial instruments. This study illustrates the programmed ways in which accounting problems are constructed and resolved, a process that shadows certain questions while emphasizing the traditional accounting concerns with disclosure, recognition, and measurement. |
