Document Summary

Accrual-basis accounting is recording revenue when providing goods and services to customers, record expenses with related revenues. Also helps measure and report revenues and expenses in a way that clearly reflects the ability of a company to create value for its stockholders. With accruals, the cash flow occurs after either the expense or the revenue is recorded. The revenue recognition principle states that we record revenue in the period in which we provide goods and services to customers. The matching principle is when companies report expenses in the same period as the revenues they help to generate. The principle has a cause and effect resulting a measure (net income) that matches current period accomplishment(revenues) and sacrifices (expenses) When prepaid rent is paid it will be recorded only as an asset from the day it was paid and no expenses will be recorded.
