Based on his interactions with the AICPA and his extensive knowledge into their Content Specification Outlines (CSOs), Professor Prentice has compiled a list of the key changes to business law and accounting ethics and what the effects to the 2011 CPA Exam will be. In his video, hosted both on Youtube.com/cpaexcel and on CPAexcel.com, Professor Prentice discusses the changes to the 2011 CPA Exam. There will be more emphasis on:

• Ethics
• Sarbanes-Oxley compliance
• Taking a global perspective on accounting.

There are four sections of the CPA Exam. Regulation (REG) will test on:

• Tax responsibility
• Privacy acts
• Money laundering
• Copyright
• Patent law.

Auditing and Attestation (AUD) will add questions on the guidelines from:

• Department of Labor
• Government Accounting Office
• International Federation of Accountants (IFAC).
