SSC CGL 2023 (Tier-II) Paper 1 Previous Year Paper (26-Oct-2023) (Shift-1)
The correct answer is

Financial accounting discloses the present value of the business.

The correct answer is option 1. Financial accounting does not disclose the present value of the business. It records historical data, including past transactions and the financial position at a particular point in time. The other statements are true, as financial accounting allows some flexibility in accounting treatments, is influenced by personal judgments (especially when estimation is required), and may not capture non-monetary information such as employee morale or brand value.
