Sir can you help to determine the difference between classification and presentation? I can't really get clear but from them. Thank you

See page 83: Classification - in the proper accounts e.g. proper classification between revenue expense and capital expense - does not concern disclosure Presentation - in the financial statements - includes related disclosure Incorrect classification may give rise to incorrect presentation (e.g. as above) but presentation is wider - not only because it includes disclosure but also appropriate aggregation/disaggregation
