This helps in the attainment of the effective feedback that can be obtained on the proposals and enhancement of public interest. Within the same, the questions that are related to the transformations are represented in the form of FASB and it is a business concerns liability for answering the questions that are presented in the form and highlight about their approval and disapproval (Gornik-Tomaszewski, & Choi, 20018).

Additionally, the business enterprises under consideration also take in hand the circumstance of giving developments suggestions that are projected by the Standards Board of Financial Accounting (Bakke, Mahmudi, Fernando & Salas, 2016). Fundamentally, it can also be identified that business enterprise reacts to each of the questions that are produced in the exposure draft. In addition, it observations can be made that the business enterprises gives approval to the various opinions that are given by the board contradicting all the proposals of the extra advantages of tax along with the drawbacks in the income statement (Saito & Fukui, (2016). In essence, they have trust in the FASB proposal and consider that the proposal may help in the mitigation of the complexity for business organization.

This business concerns is connected with the operations of auditing and accounting in Australia and give feedbacks to the definite questions concerning to the improved and new accounting standards.
