Review
The accrual concept states that income
is recognized when earned regardless of
when collected and expense is recognized
when incurred regardless of when paid.
The matching principle aims to align
expenses with revenues.
Expenses should be recognized in the
period when the revenues generated by
such expenses are recognized

Accrual-Basis Accounting
Transactions recorded in the periods in which
the events occur
Revenues are recognized when earned, rather
than when cash is received.
Expenses are recognized when incurred, rather
than when paid.
Timing Issues

the events occur.
b. Revenue is recognized in the period in which it is
earned.
c. The accrual basis of accounting is in accord with
generally accepted accounting principles.

earned.
Expenses - recognized in the period in which they are
incurred.

LO 7 Describe the nature and purpose of an adjusted trial balance.
Some companies use an alternative
treatment for prepaid expenses and
unearned revenues.
When a company prepays an expense, it
debits that amount to an expense account.
When a company receives payment for
future services, it credits the amount to a
revenue account.
