Many times there are different ideas of different people in different organization about
recording and economic event they are all just at their own notion and speculations but
there has to be a system which shall justify the standard information recording system.
Because in this real world two contradicting realities cannot occur at the same time in
same place for example. 3 and 3 cannot be 33 and 6 at the same time so we need a system
of standards the current system of standards prevailing and pertaining in this world is
called Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) introduced maintained and updated due to
needs by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).
Accounting has come to be based on specified rules or conventions called “principles.”
These principles provide general laws or rules that are used to guide accounting activity
and are called Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or GAAP for short. These
principles are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) which is
a nongovernmental agency funded by the accounting profession and contributions from
business organizations. While there is no legal obligation for companies to adhere to
GAAP, there are strong practical reasons to do so. From auditing to reporting earning to
the US Securities Exchange Commission to applying for a loan, there are very
compelling reasons for organizations to conform to the generally accepted standard.
