Setting Accounting Principles
The Financial Accounting
Standards Board is the private
group that sets both broad and
specific principles.
The Securities and Exchange Commission is the
government group that establishes reporting
requirements for companies that issue stock to
the public.
The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issues international standards that identify preferred accounting practices
in other countries. The IASB does not have authority to impose
its standards on companies.

C5
Principles of Accounting
Cost principle means that
accounting information is based
on actual cost.
Going-concern means that
accounting information reflects a
presumption the business will
continue operating.
Monetary unit means we can
express transactions in money.
Revenue recognition principle
provides guidance on when a
company must recognize
revenue.
Business entity means that a
business is accounted for
separately from its owner or other
business entities.
Matching Principle prescribes that
a company must record its
expenses incurred to generate the
revenue.
Full disclosure principle requires a company to report the details behind
financial statements that would impact users’ decisions.
