Describe the history, current status, and adoption implications of a Financial Accounting Standards Board ongoing project.

The FASB has several ongoing projects that involve the review of standards and which may result in updates and/or revisions of financial accounting standards. You should select an ongoing FASB project after visiting the Technical Plan and Project Updates sections of the FASB Web site.

You should describe the project, its history (briefly), and the project's status. The final section of your paper should describe the implications of the project's adoption.
