What do you mean by principal of conservatism in accountancy?
Asked by Akash Ojha Last Modified
In business we can a loss or profit. But there can be possible loss (like my client will not give complete payment) or possible loss ( like I will receive a huge order).
So as per conservatism concept, while preparing the accounts we shall always consider possible loss and have to make a provision for that. But if there is a possible gain we shoul ignore it till it is realised.
Its also known as Prudence concept.
