6 Regulatory Flexibility Addendum Pursuant to T.C.A through , prior to initiating the rule making process, all agencies shall conduct a review of whether a proposed rule or rule affects small business. (1) The type or types of small business and an identification and estimate of the number of small businesses subject to the proposed rule that would bear the cost of, or directly benefit from the proposed rule. Recent amendments to Rule (7) reduced the time period for which a license is considered to be expired from one (1) year to six (6) months. The proposed amendments to Rule (h) simply reflect that reduction. The Tennessee State Board of Accountancy ("Board") governs over 2,000 registered firms. While a vast majority of those firms are small businesses, they will neither bear the cost of nor directly benefit from the proposed amendment to Rule (h) because the proposed amendments merely promote consistency throughout the rules. The proposed amendments to Rule U) alters the definition of a "license" to be more in line with the statutory definition set forth in T.C.A (7). The Board currently governs over 2,000 registered firms, and a vast majority of these firms are considered a small business. These firms, however, will likely not bear the cost or directly benefit from the proposed amendments~ The proposed amendments to Rule directly affect the licensee by restricting the manner by which CPE programs that fall outside of the normally accepted programs will be evaluated by the Board. The Board currently oversees about 2,000 registered firms and a vast majority of these firms are considered a small business. The proposed amendments, however, are unlikely to impose a monetary burden or confer financial benefit to these firms. (2) The projected reporting, recordkeeping and other administrative costs required for compliance with the proposed rule, including the type of professional skills necessary for preparation of the report or record. The proposed amendments to Rule (h) were drafted in response to the recent amendments to Rule (7), which reduced the time period for which a license is considered to be expired from one (1) year to six (6) months. The proposed amendments here should have been made when Rule (7) was amended. A licensee is responsible for renewing the license within six (6) months past the expiration date. Similar to Rule (7), the proposed amendments Rule (h will not impose any additional cost or require a new set of skills. The proposed amendments to Rule U) will not impose any additional reporting, recordkeeping, or other administrative costs for compliance. In fact, the amendments merely reflect the statutory definition of a "License" found in T.C.A (7).7 The proposed amendments to Rule will not impose any additional reporting, recordkeeping, and other administrative costs required for compliance. All licensees, without exception, must comply with CPE requirements. The proposed amendments simply prescribe the types of CPE courses that may be submitted for approval and when they must be submitted. All licensees are required to timely manage their CPE courses and corresponding approval. (3) A statement of the probable effect on impacted small businesses and consumers. The proposed amendments to Rule (h) were drafted in response to the recent amendments to Rule (7), which reduced the time period for which a license is considered to be expired from one (1) year to six (6) months. The proposed amendments here should have been made when Rule (7) was amended. The proposed amendments will likely reduce confusion among licensees about license renewal requirements. Consumers will also be better protected because the proposed amendments encourage licensees to timely renew their license and to remain in good standing. Consumers and small businesses will likely benefit - because the proposed amendments to Rule U) clarify the existing rules and promote consistency of the term "license.'\ Accordingly, the proposed amendments will not have any negative effect on small businesses and consumers. SS-7038 (June 2016) 6 RDA 1693
7 The proposed amendments to Rule will benefit consumers because the amendments enhance the Board's ability to oversee CPE programs, and to monitor licensees for potential violations. The Board's oversight of these programs is essential for ensuring that licensees are properly educated on changes to existing practices. (4) A description of any less burdensome, less intrusive or less costly alternative methods of achieving the purpose and objectives of the proposed rule that may exist, and to what extent the alternative means might be less burdensome to small business. The Board avers that the proposed amendments to Rules (h), U), and are not burdensome, intrusive, or costly to small businesses. (5) A comparison of the proposed rule with any federal or state counterparts. There are no known federal or state counterparts to the rules. (6) Analysis of the effect of the possible exemption of small businesses from all or any part of the requirements contained in the proposed rule. Licensees should be held to the same renewal requirements. If licensees working for small businesses were exempted from the license renewal time period, it would likely create confusion among the licensees-. Exemption from Rule ) would not benefit small businesses because the proposed amendments merely bring the definition of a "license" under the Rules in conformity with T.C.A (7). Exemption from Rule would not benefit small businesses because all licensees, even those working for a small business, must maintain their CPE hours. The proposed amendments do not impose any new requirements on small businesses. Rather, the proposed amendments only clarify when a licensee can submit his or her CPE hours from sources that are currently not sanctioned by the Board. CPE hours are vital in ensuring that licensees remain knowledgeable about current trends and important changes in the profession. SS-7038 (June 2016) 7 RDA 1693
8 Impact on Local Governments Pursuant to T.C.A and "any rule proposed to be promulgated shall state in a simple declarative sentence, without additional comments on the merits of the policy of the rules or regulation, whether the rule or regulation may have a projected impact on local governments." (See Public Chapter Number 1070 ( us/sos/acts/106/pub/pc1070. pdf) of the 2010 Session of the General Assembly) This proposed rules will not impact local governments. SS-7038 (June 2016) 8 RDA 1693
9 Additional Information Required by Joint Government Operations Committee All agencies, upon filing a rule, must also submit the following pursuant to T.C.A (i)(1 ). (A) A brief summary of the rule and a description of all relevant changes in previous regulations effectuated by such rule; Recent amendments to Rule (7) reduced the time period for which a license is considered to be expired from one (1) year to six (6) months. The proposed amendments to Rule (h) simply reflect that reduction. Specifically, the proposed amendments define an "Expired License" as a license that is more than six (6) months past its expiration date. Under the current version of Rule (h), a license is expired if it is more than one (1) year past its expiration date. If adopted, Rule (h) will benefit all licensees by clarifying when a license must be renewed before it expires. The proposed amendments to Rule U) alter the definition of a "license" to be more in line with the statutory definition set forth in T.C.A (7). This consistency will help eliminate confusion among licensees, as "License" is mentioned throughout the Board's rules. The proposed amendments to Rule prescribe how a licensee can receive credit for completing CPE programs that are not already accounted for in the Rules. Specifically, the proposed amendments require a licensee to seek the Board's approval before attending such programs. The proposed amendments also caution that a licensee will not receive credit if he or she fails to obtain the Board's approval prior to attendance. (B) A citation to and brief description of any federal law or regulation or any state law or regulation mandating promulgation of such rule or establishing guidelines relevant thereto; There are no known federal laws or regulations mandating promulgation of these rules. T.C.A (e) authorizes the Board to adopt rules to enforce the Tennessee Accountancy Act of (C) Identification of persons, organizations, corporations or governmental entities most directly affected by this rule, and whether those persons, organizations, corporations or governmental entities urge adoption or rejection of this rule; The proposed amendments to Rule (h) and Rule ) will impact all licensed CPAs.

(E) An estimate of the probable increase or decrease in state and local government revenues and expenditures, if any, resulting from the promulgation of this rule, and assumptions and reasoning upon which the estimate is based. An agency shall not state that the fiscal impact is minimal if the fiscal impact is more than two percent (2%) of the agency's annual budget or five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000), whichever is less; I The fiscal impact of these rules is nominal. (F) Identification of the appropriate agency representative or representatives, possessing substantial knowledge and understanding of the rule; SS-7038 (June 2016) 9 RDA 1693

The Board avers that the proposed amendments to Rules (h), U), and are not burdensome, intrusive, or costly to small businesses. (5) A comparison of the proposed rule with any federal or state counterparts. There are no known federal or state counterparts to the rules. (6) Analysis of the effect of the possible exemption of small businesses from all or any part of the requirements contained in the proposed rule. Licensees should be held to the same renewal requirements. If licensees working for small businesses were exempted from the license renewal time period, it would likely create confusion among the licensees. Exemption from Rule U) would not benefit small businesses because the proposed amendments merely bring the definition of a "license" under the Rules in conformity with T.C.A (7). Exemption from Rule would not benefit small businesses because all licensees, even those working for a small business, must maintain their CPE hours. The proposed amendments do not impose any new requirements on small businesses. Rather, the proposed amendments only clarify when a licensee can submit his or her CPE hours from sources that are currently not sanctioned by the Board. CPE hours are vital in ensuring that licensees remain knowledgeable about current trends and important changes in the profession. Impact on Local Governments SS-7038 (June 2016) 7 RDA 1693
19 Pursuant to T.C.A and "any rule proposed to be promulgated shall state in a simple declarative sentence, without additional comments on the merits of the policy of the rules or regulation, whether the rule or regulation may have a projected impact on local governments." (See Public Chapter Number 1070 ( us/sos/acts/106/pub/pc1070. pdf) of the 2010 Session of the General Assembly) This proposed rules will not impact local governments. Additional Information Required by Joint Government Operations Committee SS-7038 (June 2016) 8 RDA 1693
20 All agencies, upon filing a rule, must also submit the following pursuant to T.C.A (i)(1 ). (A) A brief summary of the rule and a description of all relevant changes in previous regulations effectuated by such rule; Recent amendments to Rule (7) reduced the time period for which a license is considered to be expired from one (1) year to six (6) months. The proposed amendments to Rule (h) simply reflect that reduction. Specifically, the proposed amendments define an "Expired License" as a license that is more than six (6) months past its expiration date. Under the current version of Rule (h), a license is expired if it is more than one (1) year past its expiration date. If adopted, Rule (h) will benefit all licensees by clarifying when a license must be renewed before it expires. The proposed amendments to Rule U) alter the definition of a "license" to be more in line with the statutory definition set forth in T.C.A (7). This consistency will help eliminate confusion among licensees, as "License" is mentioned throughout the Board's rules. The proposed amendments to Rule prescribe how a licensee can receive credit for completing CPE programs that are not already accounted for in the Rules. Specifically, the proposed amendments require a licensee to seek the Board's approval before attending such programs. The proposed amendments also caution that a licensee will not receive credit if he or she fails to obtain the Board's approval prior to attendance. (B) A citation to and brief description of any federal law or regulation or any state law or regulation mandating promulgation of such rule or establishing guidelines relevant thereto; There are no known federal laws or regulations mandating promulgation of these rules. T.C.A (e) authorizes the Board to adopt rules to enforce the Tennessee Accountancy Act of (C) Identification of persons, organizations, corporations or governmental entities most directly affected by this rule, and whether those persons, organizations, corporations or governmental entities urge adoption or rejection of this rule; The proposed amendments to Rule (h) and Rule U) will impact all licensed CPAs. Their position, however, is unknown to the Board. The proposed amendments to Rule will impact all licensed CPAs. Their position, however, is unknown to the Board. (D) Identification of any opinions of the attorney general and reporter or any judicial ruling that directly relates to the rule or the necessity to promulgate the rule; No Attorney General opinion or judicial ruling directly relates to the promulgation of these proposed amendments. (E) An estimate of the probable increase or decrease in state and local government revenues and expenditures, if any, resulting from the promulgation of this rule, and assumptions and reasoning upon which the estimate is based. An agency shall not state that the fiscal impact is minimal if the fiscal impact is more than two percent (2%) of the agency's annual budget or five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000), whichever is less; I The fiscal impact of these rules is nominal. (F) Identification of the appropriate agency representative or representatives, possessing substantial knowledge and understanding of the rule; I Wendy Garvin, SS-7038 (June 2016) 9 RDA 1693
