Prepayments and Accruals: Reason
Ensures that the matching or accruals concept
is followed and that a true and fair valuation
takes place.
Thus, expenses for the period are matched
against revenues earned in that period.
Adjustments are necessary to show the actual
expenses incurred and revenue earned
whether or not they have been paid for or
collected.
