    An enterprise follows accrual basis of accounting and

    records revenue when it is earned and expenses when incurred. A client makes an advance payment of ₹1,00,000 for goods to be delivered next quarter. How should this transaction be treated in the books?
    A As revenue of current period Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B As deferred revenue (liability) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C As capital receipt Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D As trade receivable Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Since the goods are not yet delivered, the amount cannot be treated as revenue. It’s a liability until the revenue is earned.
