accounting entity is the organization for which financial data are to be collected.

and other nonprofit organizations such as a hospital and a welfare organization. A

creditors, investors, and other interested parties need to evaluate its performance and
m/y m /y m/y m /y m /y m/y m /y m /y m/y m/y m/y m/y
its potential separately from other entities and from itsowners.
