To construct a measurement tool, we use prior literature which defines financial reporting quality in terms of the fundamental and enhancing qualitative characteristics underlying decision usefulness as defined in the ED (IASB, 2008). The fundamental qualitative characteristics (i.e. relevance and faithful representation) are most important and determine the content of financial reporting information. The enhancing qualitative characteristics (i.e. understandability, comparability, verifiability and timeliness) can improve decision usefulness when the fundamental qualitative characteristics are established. However, they cannot determine financial reporting quality on their own (IASB, 2008).
