What are accounting Principles?
Answer Posted / prasanthi m
Some times Accounting is called as the language of
business, as normally a business house communicates with
the outside world thorough this. In order to make this
language easy and commonly understood by all, it is
necessary that it should be based on certain uniform
scientifically laid down standards. These standards are
termed as "Accounting Principles".
