The business concept of accounting refers to the systematic process of identifying, recording, measuring, classifying, verifying, interpreting, summarizing, and communicating financial information about business activities. It serves as an art (recording transactions) and a science (analyzing and interpreting data) to aid decision-making for stakeholders.
