MAIN BODY
Part A
Statements of financial position are reports prepared by an organization's management to
present the financial position and performance at a point in time. It states the liabilities, assets
and owner's equity on particular time (Limitations of financial statements 2018). These
statements are prepared to spring users outside of an organisation, like creditors and investors,
more than information about company's financial positions. Financial statements have some
limitations, they are as follows -
1. Do not give exact position
The financial statements are verbalised in monetary values, so they come out to give final and
accurate position. In the balance sheet, amount of fixed assets neither represents the amount of
which fixed assets can be sold nor the value which will be required to replace these assets. For
the preparation of balance sheet using assumption of going concern. According to this concern
business will continue in future (Adams and Simnett, 2011). So, on fixed cost are shown cost
less accumulated depreciation. There are definite assets in the financial statement like as discount
on issue of shares, preliminary expenses, goodwill which will recognise nothing at the time of
settlement though are shown in the balance sheet. Intangible assets are not recorded as assets in
balance sheet. Alternatively, any expenditure made to move on intangible assets are instantly
charged to expenses. This policy can drastically estimation the amount of an enterprise,
especially one that has exhausted a large value to develop a brand picture or to create new
products (Brown, Beekes and Verhoeven 2011). It is a specific trouble for start up companies
that have created rational property, but which have to create distant minimal sales.

2. Only interim Reports
Financial statement do not show a concluding image of the going concern. These statements
shown only approximate data. The real status can only be discovered when the business
organization is liquidated or sold. However, the balance sheet have to be prepared for various
accounting periods, broadly one year, during the life time period of the going concern. The
incomes and costs be taken over to various periods with a aspect to find out earnings
(Badertscher, Burks, and Easton, 2011). The allocation of incomes and expenses will look on the
personal opinion of the accountant. The state of contingent liabilities and assets also makes the
statements imprecise. So balance sheet do not give actual and final picture and they are at the
most interim reports.
3. Historical Cost
The financial statements of an organisations are oven-ready on the basis of original costs and
historical costs. The amount of assets flexure with the section of time current value accusation
are not interpreted into account (Simnett, and Huggins, 2015). While preparing statements,
prevalent economic condition were not taken into account. The financial statements suffer the
significant of existence an index of current economic actuality. Likewise, the profit shown by
income statement may not shows the earning capacity of the going concern. The change in net
income may be due to some abnormal causes and due to increases in prices and not collect to
increases in ratio. The decision drawn from financial statements may not spring a clean picture of
the going concern (Norwani, Zam, and Chek, 2011).
