Match up these accounting principles with the definitions below.
  1. All transactions and other items to bе accounted for must be in a single, supposedly stable monetary unit. This requires multinational companies to convert their consolidated statements into a single currency.
    The continuity or going-concern assumption
    The unit-of-measure assumption
    The time-period or accounting period assumption
    The historic cost principle
    The revenue or realization principle
  2. Financial data must be reported for particular (short) periods, which makes accrual and deferral necessary. This means that each company has its own financial year (US: fiscal year).
    The separate-entity or accounting entity assumption
    The unit-of-measure assumption
    The time-period or accounting period assumption
    The historic cost principle
    The revenue or realization principle

    The unit-of-measure assumption
    The historic cost principle
    The revenue or realization principle

    The continuity or going-concern assumption
    The unit-of-measure assumption
    The time-period or accounting period assumption
    The historic cost principle
    The revenue or realization principle
  5. This convention states that the business and the owner are separate for accounting purposes. For example, the private house is not a business asset and should not be included in the balance sheet if it were not used for business purposes.
    The separate-entity or accounting entity assumption
    The continuity or going-concern assumption
    The unit-of-measure assumption
    The time-period or accounting period assumption
    The revenue or realization principle
  6. In accordance with this convention, each transaction has always two effects, equal in value and opposite in their effect on the balance sheet.
    The continuity or going-concern assumption
    The unit-of-measure assumption
    The time-period or accounting period assumption
    The revenue or realization principle
    Duality
