2.2 Entities
The guidance in this Roadmap applies to all entities. Generally,
FASB Codification guidance (i.e., ASC guidance) applies to both public business
entities (PBEs) (including SEC registrants) and private companies. SEC guidance
applies to (1) SEC registrants and (2) private companies that either have elected to
apply such guidance or are subject to it for other reasons (e.g., for the
preparation of financial statements that are included or incorporated by reference
in an SEC registrant’s filing).
