justification regarding the basic determination of the annual report of both the retail companies
for the financial year 2016.
Analysis
Analysis of Company Overview:
Woolworth is one of the most important retail giant prevailing their business operation in the
financial market of Australia. It can be said that the market challenges faced by the company in
parts of Australia and New Zealand has pertained effective strategies so as to tackle different
kinds of commitments adhered for structuring into a better organization in the financial year
2020. The company has also intervened some of the policies so as to builds effective relationship
and trust by encouraging diversities as well as supporting all the health care activities in the
world. Development of detailed competencies with focus upon respective plan of action has
entailed the aspects regulating important feasibility of the company. Whereas, Wesfarmers has
intended to be a strong company with justified business portfolio which will surely attain the
significance of delineating cash, which has been generated through the aspects of governance so
as to ensure efficient workforce and cultures with the shareholders for creating immense values
for the company (Jorgensen, et al., 2016). It can be said that the overall objectives of the
company is to provide justified returns to its shareholders so as to ensure the feasibilities of
strengthening the financial aspects of the company. In context to the conceptual framework the

been implemented by the organizations, In accordance with the context regarding the framework,
it can be said that the perspectives regarding the adjustment has formulated the feasibility
regarding the adjustments regarding the entailed fact of considering the valuation. It has been

Prudence concept of corporate Reporting
Prudence concept in accounting and financial reporting has significantly addressed the track
record with help of key standards in order to synthesize the importance regarding the conceptual
framework. As reasonability is obviously reflected in the guidelines it appears to be correct that
its part is talked about in the structure that is utilized to set those principles. The most recent
exchange paper on the structure from IASB does not, notwithstanding, propose its consideration.
In addition, that exchange paper is proposing the expulsion of the likelihood of inflow surge of
financial advantages from the meaning of benefits and liabilities and that certain
acknowledgment tests ought not to be given. For resources, specifically, this opens up the degree
for including a greater number of things as resources than under current IFRS. Rather, the
importance of the data gave will be considered and vulnerability is probably going to be
considered in measuring things as opposed to in choosing whether they will be perceived in any
case. From the aspects of the company Woolworths the concurrence regarding instability should
be reflected in estimation. In reasonable qualities in light of models and values in view of future
money streams counting weaknesses of advantages at cost the instabilities must be completely
perceived, for example in the hazard or liquidity segments of rebate rates. The conclusion from
the occurrences in the current IFRS would be that the structure needs a component of
judiciousness in the acknowledgment of advantages and liabilities instead of just to reflect
instability in estimation. Judiciousness in acknowledgment of advantages and liabilities ought to
be more straightforward than conceivably evaluated reasonability in estimation. The
bookkeeping measures clarify which things ought to be perceived and when, and the
bookkeeping strategies ought to expand on how those benchmarks have been connected by the
organization. As the significance considering the financial statements it has been set out
numerous things should be measured at cost and this naturally gets a component of judiciousness
in the qualities perceived and the planning of benefit acknowledgment, as noted previously. Past
that, judiciousness in reasonable esteem or income based estimation is not useful. This is the
place it turns out to be difficult to deny the contentions that judiciousness prompts unfit
predisposition in records. Reflecting vulnerability in estimation, then again, is an endeavour to
reflect genuinely what advertises players apply by and by and what financial matters would
manage. Some present occurrences of reflecting judiciousness in the introduction of money
related articulations depend on the acknowledgment of a few picks up in Wesfarmers Ltd instead
of in benefit. There is a recognized absence of lucidity in the standards of what constitutes
benefit and what constitutes actual standards of which judiciousness is only a section; this still
stays to be settled in the structure.

an extensive, scattered and complex association, this vulnerability produces hazard, with the
possibility to be a wellspring of both open doors and dangers. By comprehension and overseeing

the effectiveness of the considered approach so as to deliver the significance regarding all the
