- W3020839400 abstract "Publisher SummaryThis chapter discusses the uses and misuses of accounting. Financial accounting and its records present the (1) financial relationship of the business with the outside world, (2) the overall result, in terms of profit or loss, of the activities of the business, and (3) historical review of what has happened. One of the fundamental reasons for failure to understand accounting documents is the failure to realize that accounting is a language having its own rules and words used must be interpreted accordingly. The qualified accountant has studied this language but many non-accountants have not. Accounting can never give a complete picture because some events defy expression in monetary terms and must therefore be omitted. Accounting has selected money value as its unit of measurement. Therefore, the day-to-day transactions of business, undertaken in many different units of measurement, have all to be converted to money values. This gives rise to two major shortcomings. Accounting can never give a complete picture because some events defy expression in monetary terms and must therefore be omitted. Once a figure is committed to paper by an accountant, it is commonly accepted with an air of accuracy that was never intended by the accountant." @default.
