As explained in paragraph [852-10-45-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/852/10/#852-10-45-1), entering a [reorganization proceeding](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/r/#reorganization-proceeding "A Chapter 11 case from the time at which the petition is filed until the plan is confirmed."), although a significant event, does not ordinarily affect or change the application of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) followed by the entity in the preparation of its financial statements. However, the needs of financial statement users change, and thus changes in the reporting practices previously followed by the entity are necessary.
