the future economic benefits will flow to the entity and the item has a cost or
value that can be measured reliably.
• Which statement is incorrect regarding the new definition of an asset?

economic benefits.
It needs to be certain or likely that economic benefits will arise.
An economic resource is a right that has the potential to produce economic
benefits.
An asset is a present economic resource controlled by the entity as a result of past
events.
• Under this concept, a profit is earned only if the financial (money) amount of
