2.2 Objective of financial statements
2.2.1 Extract from FRS102: Section 2.1A-2.3 

2.1A  Although this section sets out the concepts and pervasive principles underlying financial statements, in some circumstances there may be inconsistencies between the concepts and principles in this section of the FRS and the specific requirements of another section. In these circumstances the specific requirements of the other section within the FRS take precedence over this section

2.2  The objective of financial statements is to provide information about the financial position, performance and cash flows of an entity that is useful for economic decision-making by a broad range of users who are not in a position to demand reports tailored to meet their particular information needs.

2.3  Financial statements also show the results of the stewardship of management – the accountability of management for the resources entrusted to it.

2.2.2 OmniPro comment

Section 2.1A of FRS 102 is clear that where the concepts and pervasive prinicples in Section 2 is in contradiction of any other sections in the FRS then the relevant Section in the FRS takes precedence.

The intention of FRS 102 as per Section 2.2 of FRS 102 is to provide objective financial statements that are useful to the readers of them.
