Financial Position, FinancialPerformance & Cash Flows
The economic decisions that are taken byusers of financial reports require anevaluation of the ability of an entity togenerate cash and cash equivalents and of
the timing and certainty of theirgeneration. This ability ultimately determines, for
example, the capacity of an entity to pay
its employees and suppliers, meet interestpayments, repay loans and makedistributions to its owners.
Users are better able to evaluate this abilityto generate cash and cash equivalents if they are provided with information that

Accrual Basis In order to meet their objectives, financial
reports are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Under this basis, the effects of transactions and other events are recognisedwhen they occur (and not as cash or itsequivalent is received or paid) and they arerecorded in the accounting records andreported in the financial reports of theperiods to which they relate.
Financial reports prepared on the accrual basisinform users not only of past transactionsinvolving the payment and receipt of cashbut also of obligations to pay cash in thefuture and of resources that represent cashto be received in the future.

Hence, they provide the type of information about past transactionsand other events that is mostuseful to users in making economicdecisions.

Going Concern
Financial reports are normally prepared onthe assumption that an entity is a goingconcern and will continue in operation for
the foreseeable future. Hence, it is assumed that the entity hasneither the intention nor the need toliquidate or curtail materially the scale of
its operations; if such an intention or needexists, the financial report may have to beprepared on a different basis and, if so,the basis used is disclosed.

Maintenance and theDetermination of Profit
Financial capital maintenance Under this concept, a profit is earned only if
the financial (or money) amount of the net
assets at the end of the period exceedsthe financial (or money) amount of netassets at the beginning of the period,after excluding any distributions to, and
contributions from, owners during theperiod. Financial capital maintenance canbe measured in either nominal monetaryunits or units of constant purchasing
power.
