Hello Sir/ Mam

Q - 1 - THE CORRECT ANSWER IS OPTION D.

Hence, cut-off reflect that all events have been recorded in correct accounting period.

(c) THE CORRECT ANSWER IS OPTION D : Occurance

Occurance is an assertion relating to the transactions while all other are the assertion for assets and liabilities. As account balance is an asset, hence, occurance is the right answer.

(d) THE CORRECT ANSWER IS OPTION C : ACCURACY

Completeness means all transactions, balances and events are recorded, while accuracy means that all these are recorded at accurate amount.

(e) THE CORRECT ANSWER IS OPTION B : EXISTENCE

Existence is an assertion relating to Assets and Liabilities.

(f) THE CORRECT ANSWER IS OPTION A : ACCURACY, VALUATION AND ALLOCATION

Occurance and Classification are assertions for transactions and events while allowance/ provisions neither are rights nor are obligations of the entity.

I hope this solves your doubt.
