Abstract

Having an influence on the economic life, accounting is driven by particular rules. Currently used set of accounting rules determines the rule of true and fair view as a superior rule. Development of capital markets led to a broader range of capital instruments used for financing of activities of particular entities. The way of financing assets has a significant influence on the perception of an individual; thus, a representation of hybrid capital in a balance sheet in a position separate from own and borrowed capitals realises the rule of true and fair view to a large extent. The aim of this article is to present rules used by the accounting system, with a particular focus on realisation of the rule of true and fair view with respect to singled out hybrid capital, i.e. mezzanine.
