A Quick Check in - What's New.
It's hard to believe that is already July 16th, 2011 but then again with all that has been happening we wouldn't have been suprised if more time had passed. If you have been following us on twitter you know that we have been actively following the daily conversation and promoting constructive action on US Jobs, the Deficits and Debts, as all are key points that urgently require attention. We see that the downside of a twitter driven campaign is that it's on the dashboard and then it goes away, the upside is better access is to timely, relevant information for decision makers.
We have been posting periodic links and updates to Our Facebook page which is more a lasting notification point on Our Interests and recent updates that doesn't refresh from moment to moment. The missing link here is Our Blog posts as a lasting map to Our discovery process on Broad ranging Business and Individual Accounting, Tax, Regulatory and Governmental Accounting and Finance. While the process may not yet be permanently documented here - the knowledge growth is permanent and our capacity to support our Clients has only grown through Research - we connect with you on your Industry and your Business and have deep insight to the places where your Industry and Business connect with our governments at the Federal, State and Local levels through regulation including taxation, compliance, incentives and more. This is an added advantage beyond our obvious ability to support Clients on FASB - US GAAP, IASB - IFRS, GIPS, Internal Controls, Business Analysis, Accounting Operations and Systems, Legal support and more, and adds to our profile as Strategic Business partners with Depth and Efficiency.
In the weeks ahead we will be more completely integrating Our Blog into our Informational Resource flow so stay tuned with us here as we continue to bring you more as the CPA and Business Consulting Solution that walks with you in the Economy, on Industry, on Business, at the Intersection of Regulation and Finance, considering the many ways we can help you on services where you are. We also hope to keep us all a little better connected at the points where our Government interacts with us in Finances on your Business, in Taxes and more. We encourage the involvement of our fellow Financial Professionals in the design of better dashboard metrics for Effective Financial Legislation to maximize the utility of government spending on services and impart to you that the true equation that works in Public Finance is not a "balanced budget" it is:
Government Expenditures = Tax Inflows - Interest Factor on Debt - X Factor Debt Reduction; where we work together and solve for X.
We need a Strong National Economy that is built on US Agriculture, Manufacturing and Services, we need to consider the dialogue on Energy and to maintain Our Education, Scientific and Health Professions in ways that make sense Economically.
On the Micro Economy, your Business and your Individual Finances we are here to support you on Accounting, Taxes, Advisory, Private Company Audits and Consulting. Available in many States and locations and ready to provide remote support where you need it. Check in with us when you need us for corresponding services, you can find us at http://www.dcarsoncpa.com/ .

New News on the Front of State and Local Pension Funding.
A brief post here for some uplifting news on the Front of State and Local Pension Funding. NCPERS, "the largest trade association for public sector pension funds, representing more than 500 funds throughout the United States and Canada." "A unique nonprofit network of public trustees, administrators, public officials and investment professionals who collectively manage nearly $3 trillion in pension assets. Founded in 1941, NCPERS has been the principal trade association working to promote and protect pensions by focusing on advocacy, research and education for the benefit of public sector pension stakeholders." (1) June 7, 2011 :
Within these $3 Trillion in Pension Assets are a considerable amount of Assets captured within Investment Company Institutes $13.1 Trillion measurement of the US Fund Industry (Mutual, ETF and Unit Investment Trusts - UITs), (2) which we previously noted had been eclipsed by the national debt of $14.3 Trillion (not a good sign). Never the less, we are happy to take good news where we can find it these days and this NCPERS report is hopeful in it's conclusion that "reforms and structural changes" in Public Retirement Funds are starting to show some signs of improvement.
Here is a direct link to the NCPERS Report issued on
http://www.ncpers.org/Files/2011_06_ncpers_public_fund_study.pdf
Investment Companies are interconnected to Public Employee Retirement Funds for a portion of their Assets Under Management along with Institutional and Individual Investor Funded Programs so you have a three way connection to this report, The Investment Company Industry, Taxes that Fund Public Pensions (via Individual, Corporate and Service driven Taxes at the State and Local level), and the issue of Funding on the Local and State levels of the overall Debt Issues. We are glad to hear some news of improvement in Public Finances at the Local and State levels and hope it continues as the case.
With time we'll continue to look at Federal, State and Local Debts and Taxes and how it's all working together in this challenged Economy. Also we are aware that there are Local Governments in Favorable Financial Positions and welcome all of your news on the State of the States and thier Local Finances. Also take the time to follow us on Twitter where we are forwarding relevant news on these and other factors in the Economy. Like you we are looking forward to better news in the Economy and encourage progress on the Local, State and Federal Debts to better protect Our Nations Financial Future. Fix the Debt - tweet us #FTD if you are on it...we will when we find relevant news on twitter corresponding to Fix the Debt news and activity. Taken a step further we could add a rating system where + = good news and - = bad news. We need to encourage reponsible Fiscal Fiduciary Financial Legislation wirh aims to correctly balance key governmental services and debt reduction.
