Financial reporting.

In financial reporting, recognition is the identification and inclusion of an item in one or more of a:

(i) balance sheet,
(ii) income statement,
(iii) statement of comprehensive income,
(iv) statement of changes in equity or
(v) cash-flow statement.


Certain items which are not recognised and incorporated into any of these five statements may still be disclosed in the accompanying notes to the financial statements.
