Accounting estimate

Financial statements provide investors and analysts with information about a company’s ability to manage its financial transactions and build value in the organization. Accountants collect information to use when creating the financial statements. This information accommodates both actual dollar amounts and estimated amounts. Accounting estimate requires the accountant to determine what financial value to record when the actual amount is unknown.
