Explanation:

A company's failure to accrue revenue in accordance with the accrual concept and revenue recognition principle means that there is a "Prior Period Error" which must be corrected retrospectively in the financial statements (Retained Earnings).  Retrospective restatement involves the correction of the error arising from the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of amounts of elements of financial statements.  The restatement is done as if a prior period error had never occurred.
