The New Yellow Book: Revised Government Auditing Standards

In July 2007, the Comptroller General of the United States issued the 2007 revision of Government Auditing Standards. This marks the 5th time since their issuance in 1972 that they have been revised. These standards supersede the older 2003 revision and update the January 2007 revision.
