Accrual meaning and Expense & Income Accrual Entries.....

Accrual—accrual-basis recognition precedes cash receipt and expenditure

(1) Revenue—recognition of revenue earned, but not received
(2) Expense—recognition of expense incurred, but not paid

Accounting Example :

Expense Accruals 

Wages expense Account  Dr xx
         To Wages payable Account xx 

Reversal Yes 

Revenue Accruals

Interest receivable Account Dr xx
         To Interest revenue Account xx

Reversal Yes 

Entries are reversed for accounting practicality. If accruals are reversed, the subsequent cash transaction is reflected in the associated nominal account. If accruals are not reversed, the subsequent cash transaction must be apportioned between a nominal and real account.

Cash Account Dr (amount received)
              To Revenue (earned in current period)
              To Revenue receivable (accrual at last year-end)

  2. Anyone who has studied from F1 Exam Dumps will agree with me in saying that there is no material like this. I was impressed with the presentation style in this stuff and the exact selection of the questions and answers. I prepared all the syllabus topics from F1 dumps and quickly answered them in the final test. It was not difficult to go through the series of questions and answers which were filled with valuable information in an interesting way. I corrected my mistakes through practice at online practice test. I cannot express my thanks for RealExamDumps.com just by few words because they have helped me to live my dream by giving me a career in IT. F1 Exam Dumps is the suggestion for all.
