Which two accounting concepts does this scenario illustrate, and how do they together ensure the reliability of financial information?Solution

However, by waiting until revenue is “reasonably certain,” it applies the Prudence (Conservatism) concept, avoiding overstatement of income. These concepts together help ensure that income is neither overstated nor recognized prematurely.
