Deferred Credit

Income a firm has received but not yet reported as such. Deferred credit is usually prepayment for a good or service not yet received or done. Deferred credit is not reported when received because a situation may arise in which the revenue must be refunded. For example, if a customer orders 1,000 widgets from a company and prepays, there may be an interruption in the company's supply chain that prevents the widgets from being delivered. If this happens, then the company must refund the prepayment. Therefore, deferred credit is carried forward as a liability until such time as the transaction is complete.
