Option D

Explanation:

Comprehensive earnings reporting is intended to provide a summary of all adjustments in a corporation's equity arising from acknowledged exchanges as well as other time commercial activities other than dealings with holders in their capacities as shareholders.

If included with the fiscal reports with associated reports and other details, the details generated by disclosing detailed income will assist stakeholders, lenders as well as others in determining the operations of a business, and the duration and extent of potential cash streams of a business.
