Answer & Explanation:

XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) is a data-rich dialect of XML (Extensible Markup Language), the universally preferred language for transmitting information via the Internet. It is a language for the electronic communication of business and financial data which is revolutionising business reporting around the world.
