activities for an indefinite period of time. Thus, it will not be dissolved in the near

future.This is an important assumption of

accounting, as it provides a basis for showing the value of assets in the balance sheet

Accounting period conceptAll the transactions are recorded in the books

of accounts on the assumption that profits on these transactions are to be ascertained for a specified period.

This concept requires that a balance sheet and profit and loss account should be prepared at regular intervals.

accounts at their purchase priceIt includes cost of acquisition, transportation

and installation and not at its market price

opposite sides.

should be included in the accounting records only when it is realized.

Revenue is said to have been realized when cash has been received.

received at the end of the accounting period. Revenue is realized at the time of sale of

goods or services irrespective of the fact when the cash is received.
