This excerpt taken from the BP 6-K filed Dec 13, 2006.
Fair value measurements: In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 ‘Fair Value Measurements’ (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for accounting periods beginning after November 15, 2007. The Group has not yet completed its evaluation of the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on the Group’s profit as adjusted to accord with US GAAP, or on BP shareholders’ equity as adjusted to accord with US GAAP.
