An Accountant's Perspective on the First 100 Days of Barack Obama

WebCPA's editor-in-chief, Michael Cohn, notes that there have actually been a sizable number of events in the early days of the Obama administration. Among the more significant: the tax provisions in the stimulus bill, a look at the Obama's personal tax return, the dilution of "mark to market" and the $3.6 trillion budget. Cohn also noted that bipartisan goals and executive compensation controls were not working out as well as hoped. For those, Cohn said [tongue-in-cheek] to check in another hundred or perhaps thousand days.
