FASB and IFRS both have Economic entity, Going concern, and Monetary unit in common.
And FABS has Periodicity, IASB has Accrual basis, Stable measuring unit and Units of
constant purchasing power; those are different from each other.
Going Concern: Company to last long Going concern: The assumption that a
enough to fulfill objectives and business entity will be in operation for the
commitments. assumes that any organization foreseeable future.
will continue to operate its business for the
foreseeable future. The principal purports
that every decision in a company is taken
with the objective in mind of running the
business rather than that of liquidating it.
Basic Principles
FASB IASB / IFRS
• Measurement Principle • Clarity
• Revenue Recognition • Relevance
• Expense Recognition • Reliability
• Full Disclosure • Comparability
Clarity: The principle of clarity requires that financial statements be easy to read and easy to
understand. IFRS guidelines allow substantial discretion in deciding what information will be
included and how it will be presented in the financial statements. The final decision rests with
the accountant.
Relevance is the concept that the information generated by an accounting system should impact
the decision-making of someone perusing the information. The concept can involve the content
of the information and/or its timeliness, both of which can impact decision making.
Reliability: The reliability principle aims to ensure that all transactions, events, and business
activities presented in the financial statements are reliable. Information is considered reliable if
it can be checked, verified, and reviewed with objective evidence.
Comparability: The compatibility principle is an information system concept that suggests the
accounting system of any company should adapt to their operations, employees, and business
structure.
