Explanation
Accumulated Fund Equals Owner's Equity in Sole Traders
Steps:
- Identify accumulated fund as net assets (assets minus liabilities) in non-profit organizations.
- Recognize capital in sole traders as the owner's equity, also net assets.
- Compare both as the balancing figure on the statement of financial position's equity side.
- Conclude they are equivalent, representing residual interest after liabilities.
Why A is correct:
- Capital is defined as the owner's claim on net assets in a sole trader's statement of financial position, mirroring the accumulated fund's role in non-profits per accounting standards like IFRS.
Why the others are wrong:
- B: Capital and liabilities together form the right side but accumulated fund excludes liabilities, focusing only on equity.
- C: Current liabilities are short-term obligations, not equity or net assets.
- D: Non-current assets are long-term resources, part of the left side, not the equity equivalent.
