    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!
