I vaguely recall that revenue recognition is definitely one of the principles, but I can't remember if it's paired with matching or measurement.

I remember practicing a question about the matching principle, so I feel like it has to be one of the answers. Maybe it's A?

I think the guiding principles are related to how we recognize revenue and expenses, but I'm not sure if it's just revenue recognition and matching or something else.

Ah, this is a tricky one. I remember the professor talking about the importance of cost and materiality in accrual accounting, but I'm not certain if those are the two main principles. I'll have to review the key concepts again.
