The cash method is a more immediate recognition of revenue and expenses, while the accrual method focuses on anticipated revenue and expenses.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Accrual accounting means revenue and expenses are recognized
and recorded when they occur, while cash basis accounting means these line items aren't documented until cash exchanges hands. Cash basis accounting is easier, but accrual accounting portrays a more accurate portrait of a company's health by including accounts payable and accounts receivable. The accrual method is the most commonly used method, especially by publicly-traded companies as it smooths out earnings over time.
Accrual Accounting Method
Revenue is accounted for when it is earned. Typically, revenue is recorded before any money changes hands. Unlike the cash method, the accrual method records revenue when a product or service is delivered to a customer with the expectation that money will be paid in the future. Expenses of goods and services are recorded despite no cash being paid out yet for those expenses.
Cash Basis Accounting
Revenue is reported on the income statement only when cash is received. Expenses are only recorded when cash is paid out. The cash method is mostly used by small businesses and for personal finances.
