Abstract
The importance of any economic entity’s fnancial information is unquestionable, for use as a control tool and as much an accountability report. However, the objective of accounting activity is much bigger than this, as many experts have pointed out along throughout history and whose testimonies are included in this work. This paper describes and refutes the most popular attacks on accounting information arguing against statements which frequently appear in the fnancial circles and in the media.
