Do single step and multiple step income statements both reflect the full disclosure principle.
Yes, both the types of statements reflect the full disclosure principle as they list out all the revenues and expenses. The difference is that, while
*the multiple step income statement is analytic in reporting the profit at different stages as gross profit, operating profit, profit before taxes and profit after taxes, with classification of expenses, accordingly, as cost of goods sold, operating expenses [with separate classification of selling expenses and administrative expenses], other expenes/income and taxes.
*the single step income statement is not analytic and reports all revenues and expenses with no classification, and reports only the profit after taxes.
