    Q: conceptual framework identifies an ” underlying assumption” in preparing financial statements. This is
    1 . Going concern
    2 . Materiality
    3 . Substance over form
    4 . Accruals

    Answer in bp exam kit is ( going concern) but notes tell us Accruals & going concern) are underlying assumptions. OT Notes chap 2 page 4.

    Here’s an extract from an IFRS internet post, reference:

    https://www.ifrs.org/Meetings/MeetingDocs/IASB/Archive/Conceptual-Framework/Agenda%20Decision/0409b07.pdf

    “Fundamental concepts
    Underlying assumptions
    35. The IASB framework contains two underlying assumptions: the accruals basis and the going concern basis.17 These assumptions receive less prominence in the FASB framework. For example, the going concern basis is mentioned in a footnote only.18”

    Make of that what you will!
