Public Company Quality Continues to Improve, Trend is Good
The quality improvement trend continues. There are currently 10 software generators and filing agents that have 90% or more of their XBRL-based public company financial reports consistent with all of the fundamental accounting concept relations continuity cross-checks. Average is 87.9%. On a per test basis, 99.19% of all relations are consistent with expectation.
Here are the current results of my measurements:
The biggest notable item is that Workiva went from 84% consistency to 87% consistency, fixing about 114 specific errors.
