    Objectives of Accounting Standards

    Accounting standards reduce to a considerable extent

    or eliminate altogether wide variations in the

    accounting treatments used to prepare and present

    financial statements.

    Thus the basic objective of an accounting standard is to

    harmonize the diverse accounting practices followed in

    the preparation and presentation of financial

    statements so as to facilitate intra-firm and inter-firmcomparison.
