Consistency Principle
1.12 CONSISTENCY PRINCIPLE
Definition:
The accounting methods used by the business should be applied
consistently from one reporting period to another.
This allows comparisons of the firm’s performance to be made over
time.

Consistency Principle
 Applying the consistency principle
ensures the qualitative
characteristic of comparability
 If constant changes were made to how
items were recorded and the methods
used, comparisons over time would be
difficult
