Lecture 2 Unit 4  Financial Perfor!ance Learning Objectives • #tate the purpose of the income statement .profit and loss/ • Explain the relationship between the income statement and the balance sheet • !resent the profit and loss equation and identify alternative formats for the income statement • Demonstrate an understanding of income in relation to definition, recognition, classification and measurement • Demonstrate an understanding of expenses in relation to definition, recognition, classification and measurement • Distinguish between accrual and cash$based transaction recognition •  "nalyse expense recognition for non$current tangible asset s •  "nalyse expense recognition for accounts receivable • !repare an income statement from relevant financial information • 9eview and interpret income statements 0ote that the page readings for this topic are from chapter # and there are only selected   pages that you need to read1 lease refer to t he lecture2reading guide in the Study %earning  .uide for details1
