Summary

Introduction

Financial reports are prepared in order to provide information about the company's financial position, financial performance and cash flow to be used by most report users in making decisions. Users of financial reports can be investors and creditors. Investors base their investment decisions on the company's financial statements. Creditors view the company's solvency level as the company's ability to settle debt. The financial statements as a source of information for users are expected to reflect the actual condition of the company. According to PSAK No 1 of 2009, a quality financial report is a report that can meet qualitative requirements such as comprehensibility, relevance, reliability and comparability
