Matching concept The accounting principle that requires the recognition of all costs that are associated with the generation of the revenue reported in the income statement. Accrual Accounting A system of accounting that recognizes revenue and matches it with the expenses that generated that revenue. Unlike other systems of accounting, which recognize revenue and expenses in the order in which they are received, the accrual accounting convention ignores the function of time and only considers what expenses generate what revenues, even if payments have not actually been made. Companies with inventories are required to use the accrual method for tax purposes. Want to thank TFD for its existence?
