Chapter 2: Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting A conceptual framework in accounting is important because rule-making should relate to an established body of concepts. The FASB’s conceptual framework is developed in a series of concept statements. The conceptual framework has 3 levels: Level 1: Objective of financial reporting, the “why” or purpose of accounting.Level 2: Qualitative characteristics and the elements of financial statements.Level 3: Financial reporting concepts, the “how” or implementation. https://youtu.be/GrXXwzlu0_4 See the article Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting.
