 Coefficient ideals of a formal power series ideal

For an ideal $H\subseteq R[[X]]$, let $A_n$ consist of coefficients of $X^n$ in members of $H$ with all lower coefficients zero. These are ideals of $R$ and $A_n\subseteq A_{n+1}$, by multiplication by $X$. If $R$ is Noetherian, this chain stabilizes. Choose series whose leading coefficients generate the finitely many distinct coefficient ideals, then cancel coefficients successively. The accumulated multipliers are formal power series, giving an ordinary finite ideal generating set for $H$, rather than merely a dense subideal.
