The concept of “going concern” in accounting emphasizes that a business must persist into the future to retain its value. This principle signifies that present value already incorporates expectations of future value; thus, a business facing uncertainty about its future will inevitably diminish in present value. It highlights the interconnectedness of present and future values, suggesting that they cannot be regarded in isolation. All stocks traded on the stock market are priced based on their anticipated future value. In essence, we trade on a future that has yet to materialize. Consequently, determining how far into the future to evaluate is a critical factor in making investment decisions. Since individuals have varying skills and perspectives on forecasting the future, selecting an investment strategy must align with one’s attitude toward time. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
When you bleed, the blood comes into contact with the air, it changes from a liquid to a jelly, and then from a jelly to a solid scab. This inherent property of a substance is called its "physical property". If the properties of blood do not change from liquid to jelly and then to solid, people will die from excessive bleeding to death. Thus, physical properties are quite important to our life phenomena. The properties are almost everything in the business of food and chemical products. We can do our business although without an understanding of the properties. But if we cannot understand, or do overlook them, even a coffee shop can't expect to win the competition. So start by understanding the properties. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
