    Hello,

    Since when the underlying assumptions for conceptual framework is only “Going concern”?

    What happened to “Accrual accounting”?

    Thank a lot!

    I saw that post as I did not really get my answer from it. Reading from my textbook, it said that only underlying assumption is going concern. But I was reading an old textbook and it said there are 2 assumptions (going concern and accruals). So I searched from the DP and ED, but could not find any answer.

    This my post in reply to Frozen’s original query

    “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!”
