SELECT TOP (5) Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.PO_Number, Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.Supplier, Table_PurchaseOrder_List.Unit_Price,
Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.CreatedDate
FROM Table_PurchaseOrder_Information INNER JOIN
Table_PurchaseOrder_List ON Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.ReferenceNumber = Table_PurchaseOrder_List.ReferenceNumber
ORDER BY Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.CreatedDate DESC

There would have to be an entry in each table for the 2013 record to show.

are you looking at top 5 values for each year?
then use


SELECT *
FROM
(
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY YEAR(Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.CreatedDate) ORDER BY Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.CreatedDate DESC) AS Seq,
Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.PO_Number, Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.Supplier, Table_PurchaseOrder_List.Unit_Price, 
Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.CreatedDate
FROM Table_PurchaseOrder_Information INNER JOIN
Table_PurchaseOrder_List ON Table_PurchaseOrder_Information.ReferenceNumber = Table_PurchaseOrder_List.ReferenceNumber
)t
WHERE Seq<=5
ORDER BY CreatedDate DESC

do you have the corresponding record created in Table_PurchaseOrder_List for 2013 also ? Or only in the Table_PurchaseOrder_Information ?

then only other issue might be that you dont have matching entry in Table_PurchaseOrder_List table for 2013 records. Try changing INNER to LEFT JOIN
