Chapter 9 — Foreign Currency Matters

9.1 Overview

9.1 Overview

The primary objective of ASC 830, which provides guidance on foreign currency matters, is for reporting entities to present their consolidated financial statements as though they are the financial statements of a single entity. Therefore, if a reporting entity operates in more than one currency environment, it must translate the financial results of those operations into a single currency (referred to as the reporting currency). However, this process should not affect the financial results and relationships that were created in the economic environment of those operations.
