Answer #1

Violation of the stable monetary unit assumption may be inflation. Balance sheets and profit and loss accounts and ledgers for that matter can be compared over periods if the inflation is within manageable levels. However where there is hyperinflation like in Zimbabwe and Argentina, accounting in local currency may violate stable monetary unit assumption. USD is considered to be a stable monetary unit. However local currencies of countries facing high inflation may not be stable over years.
