The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants currently has over 386, 00 members since founded in 1887, under the name American Association of Public Accountants. The AICPA is integral to rule making and standard setting in the CPA profession, as well as serves as an advocate before legislative bodies and public interests groups("American Institute of Certified Public Accountants", 2010). In 1934 the New York stock exchange and the AICPA jointly published the Audits of Corporate Accounts of 1934, but a few short years later in 1938, the SEC voted to forgo this prerogative and allow the private sector to regulate its accounting practice—a policy that the commission has maintained to date. The AICPA's Committee on Accounting Procedure (CAP) assumed the financial accounting standard-setting role in 1939. The AICPA shifted this responsibility to its Accounting Principles Board (APB), equipped with its own research staff, in 1959.
