    a. Revenue recognition

    b. Historical cost principle

    c. Separate entity assumption

    Explanation:

    a. Revenue recognition: The principle of revenue recognition occurs when the revenue is realized or earned whether cash is obtained or not and it also meets the accounting accrual basis. Realizable here means that the consumer receives the product but the payment is made afterwards.

    b. Historical cost principle: According to this principle the assets and liabilities are to be reported in the financial statements on the purchase or acquisition price.

    c. Separate entity assumption: The activity is distinct from its owners in this assumption. The transactions the company does are separated from the owners ' transactions.
