Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Yellow Book, officially the Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS), is the primary source of authoritative literature for conducting government audits in the United States. The Purple Book and Red Book are not related to government auditing, and while there is a Green Book issued by the Government Accountability Office, it provides guidance on federal financial management, not auditing.
