Hi, need help with this question
Which of the following is not a disadvantage of having a conceptual framework of accounting?
Answers:
A.
It does not allow for different conceptual bases depending on the userB.
It does not make the setting of accounting standards easierC.
It may hamper the development of preparing accounting standardsD.
It may lead to inconsistent accounting practicesmy answer was A, but the answer given was D.
why is it so?
Isnt the Frameword a principle based system (unlike the GAAP that is a rule based system) and therefore allowing the exercise of judgement when dealing with transactions? and since judgement is exercised, there will be some inconsistencies?
where did I go wrong?
