True. The Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements (the Framework) adopted by the IASB sets out the underlying assumptions of financial statements:

Accrual Basis. The effects of transactions and other events are recognised when they occur, rather than when cash or its equivalent is received or paid, and they are reported in the financial statements of the periods to which they relate. [F.22]

Going Concern. The financial statements presume that an enterprise will continue in operation indefinitely or, if that presumption is not valid, disclosure and a different basis of reporting are required. [F.23]
