16. Which of the following is least likely to be considered a barrier to developing one universally recognized set of reporting standards?
A. Differences of opinion among various regulatory bodies.
B. Reluctance of rims to adhere to a single set of reporting standards.
C. Political pressure from stakeholders affected by reporting standards.
               
Ans: B.
Firms usually support the idea of having a single set of reporting standards because having one set of standards would reduce the cost and the time spent on reporting. Disagreement among different standard-setting bodies and regulatory authorities does hamper agreement on a single set of standards, as does political pressure from business groups and other who would be affected by changes in reporting standards.
