Although most of the business expenses are paid by cash, Mr Bliss on certain occasions uses his own personal bank account to pay some business expenses. His accountant has asked to see his personal bank statements so that some of these amounts may be included as expenses in the statement of profit or loss. Mr Bliss is confused about this and asks 'If you are going to use my personal bank statement to prepare the financial statements, why don't you include all payments as expenses instead of only some of them?' The main reason why the accountant does not include all of the expenses is because: A Mr Bliss has not recorded the full details of some of the expenditure and, because of this uncertainty, it is more prudent not to include them in the financial statements. B there are a large number of immaterial payments which would take a long time to examine. C the personal expenses of the owner are separate from those of the business and are not relevant to the statement of profit or loss. D to be consistent with last year's financial statements only payments above £500 are included in the statement of profit or loss.
