    Accounting consists of basic assumptions, principles, and constraints. There are four basic assumptions of accounting that are the fundamental basis of any set of accounts. The four basic assumptions of accounting include: monetary unit assumption, economic period assumption, time period assumption, and going concern assumption.

Economic period assumption states that the activities of the entity should be kept separate and distinct from the activities of the owner and of all of the other economic entities. Time period assumption states that the economic life of a business can be divided into artificial time periods. Going concern assumption states that the company will continue in operation long enough to carry out its existing objectives.…
