that financial statements reflect the data and information of historical nature.

(ii) Ignorance of Qualitative Aspects: The qualitative aspects such as colour, size and brand position in
the market, employees’ qualities and capabilities are not disclosed by the financial statements. These statements record only those transactions that are quantitative in nature and can be expressed in the monetary terms.

(iii) Biased: Financial statements are based on the personal judgments regarding the use of methods of
recording. For example, the choice of practice in the valuation of inventory, method of depreciation, amount of provisions, etc. are based on the personal value judgments, which may differ from person to person. Thus, the financial statements reflect the personal value judgements of the concerned

Balance Sheet for better liquidity that gave false and misleading signals to the investors.
