the financial activities of the organization’ Recording consists of keeping a chronological
diary of these measured events in an orderly and systematic manner’ The information is
communicated through the preparation and distribution of accounting reports, the most
common of which are called financial statements’ A vital element in the communication
process is the accountant’s ability and responsibility to analyze and interpret the reported
information’
