*Needs and Uses:*                     The Uniform System of Accounts is a historical financial accounting system which reports the results of operational and financial events in a manner which enables both management and regulators to assess these results with a specified accounting period. Subject respondents are telecommunications companies. Entities having annual revenues from regulatory telecommunications operations of less than $100 million are designated as Class B and are subject to a less detailed accounting system than those designated as Class A companies. Part 32 imposes essentially recordkeeping requirements. The reporting requirements contained in the rulepart are sporadic or initiated by the carriers. The information contained in the various reports submitted to the Commission by the carriers provides necessary detail to enable the Commission to fulfill its regulatory responsibilities.
