                                   Going Concern Concept

                                   The concept deals with the quality of long lasting status of the business enterprise irrespective of
                                   the owners’ status, whether he is alive or not. This concept is known as concept of long term assets.

                                   assets which are idle during the slack season of the business retained for future usage, in spite of

                                   that those assets are frequently sold out by the firm immediately after the utility leads to mean


                                   that those assets are not fixed assets but tradable assets. The fixed assets are retained by the fi rm
                                   even after the usage is only due to the principle of long lastingness of the business enterprise.

                                   future utility of the assets in the firm which will not distinguish in between the long term assets
                                   and short term assets known as tradable in categories.

                                   Matching Concept

                                   This concept only makes the entire accounting system as meaningful to determine the volume
                                   of earnings or losses of the firm at every level of transaction; which is an outcome of matching in

                                   between the revenues and expenses.

                                   The worth of the transaction is identified through matching of revenues which are mainly

                                   generated from the sales volume and the expenses of the firm at every level.
                                         Example: The cost of goods sold and selling price of the pen of ABC Ltd. are ` 5 and


                                   ` 10 respectively. The firm produced 100 ball pens during the first shift and out of 100 pens
                                   manufactured 20 pens are considered to be damage which cannot be supplied to the customers,
                                   rejected by the quality circle department. There was an order from the firm XYZ Ltd. which

                                   amounted to 80 pens to be supplied immediately.
                                   The worth of the transaction of the firm at every level of the transaction is being studied only

                                   through the matching of revenues with the expenses.


                                   At first instance, the firm produced 100 pens which incurred the total cost of ` 500 required to

                                   match with the expected revenues of ` 1,000; illustrated the level of profit how much would it
                                   accrue if the entire level of production is sold out?
                                   If the entire production capacity is sold out in the market the profit level would be ` 500. Out of


                                   the 100 pens manufactured 20 were identified not ideal for supply as damages, the remaining 80
                                   pens were supplied to the individual retailer. The retailer has been dispatched 80 pens amounted
                                   ` 400 which equated to  ` 800 of the expected sales. At the moment of dispatching, the  fi rm
                                   expected to earn a profi t of ` 400 at the level of 80 pens supplied. After the dispatch, the retailer
                                   found that 50 pens are in accordance with the order placement but the remaining are to the

                                   tune of the retailers’ specifications. Finally, the retailer has agreed to make the payment of the
                                   bill only in accordance with the order placed which amounted ` 500 out of the expenses of the
                                   manufacturer ` 250.
