The Objective of Financial Statements

The objective of financial statements is to provide information about the

decisions.

The Framework acknowledges that a variety of measurement bases are
used today to different degrees and in varying combinations in financial
statements, including:

Historical cost

Current cost

Net realizable (settlement) value

Present value (discounted)

Historical cost is the measurement basis most commonly used today, but
it is usually combined with other measurement bases. The Framework
does not include concepts or principles for selecting which measurement
basis should be used for particular elements of financial statements or in
particular circumstances. The qualitative characteristics do provide some
guidance in this matter.
