The following extract is from Comments of Leonard Spacek, in R.T. Sprouse and M. Moonitz, A Tentative Set of Broad Accounting Principles for Business Enterprises, Accounting Research Study No. 3, AICPA, New York, 1962, reproduced in A. Belkaoui, Accounting Theory, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich.

A discussion of assets, liabilities, revenue and costs is premature and meaningless until the basic principles that will result in a fair presentation of the facts in the form of financial accounting and financial reporting are determined. This fairness of accounting and reporting must be for and to people, and these people represent the various segments of our society.

Required:

Discuss the extent to which the IASB conceptual framework satisfies the above definition of fairness. (Use minimum 2 resources and specify where you used them and give the sources link as well)
