1.0 Introduction
Organizations use financial statements for accounting purposes. They must keep track of their income and expenditure accounts for decision-making purposes. The process involves the dissemination of a company’s financial information and its financial position to the organization’s management as well as the public in case it is a public company.

These standard measures are beneficial in simplifying the financial performance of institutions across the globe.
