What did u guys write for comparability question and the other question that asks you about how matching concept is applied in provision for doubtful debts and bad debts ?

for comparability, i wrote that the financial statements should be useful in comparing with previous years and with other businesses in the same trade

for matching, i wrote the meaning of the matching concept, and that the increase in provision (which is found in the ledger a/c) is relating to the current year thus is treated as an expense in the same year's income statement, same for bad debts too.

hope it helped
