      Question

      Under theĀ Matching Concept, which is a fundamental

      derivative of the accrual basis of accounting, an entity is required to:Ā 
      A Recognize revenue only upon the actual receipt of cash from the customer. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Recognize expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the same period as the related revenues are recognized. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Record all fixed assets at their current net realizable value at each reporting date. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Anticipate all potential future losses while ignoring all potential future gains Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Defer the recognition of all operating expenses until the end of the project life-cycle. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      TheĀ Matching ConceptĀ dictates that the efforts (expenses) should be linked to the results (revenues) within a specific accounting period. This ensures that theĀ Profit or LossĀ calculated for the period is a true reflection of the performance. For example, if a sale is recorded in March, the cost of goods sold (COGS) for that specific item must also be recorded in March, regardless of when the supplier was paid.Ā
