Cash vs. Accrual Method

 
Cash vs. accrual accounting – first goods and services are provided for a fee. Then you match that with the cost that’s used to provide those goods and services. That is called the accrual basis of accounting. There are two bases – cash and accrual. In most cases accrual basis is used so you can record transactions as they occur. Revenue when it is earned, when the goods and services are provided and you have earned the right to that revenue, needs to be matched with the cost that has occurred. With cash basis revenue isn’t recorded until the cash is received and expenses aren’t recorded until cash is paid. Most companies use the accrual basis, however some smaller companies use cash basis.
