Q

Quick thoughts on cash to accrual basis

A

Add increases in current assets (ex: AR, earned more revenue but havent collected cash)

Add decreases in current liabilities (ex: AP, cash was paid for the liability (expensed when cash is paid under cash basis) but the liability was already recognized previously under accrual basis and should not be recorded again.

like in accrual basis when there is an accounts payable it gets expensed. however, under cash basis it does not get expensed until cash is actually paid for the liability. So when the balance of AP goes down (meaning cash was paid) that means in that period under cash basis they would now record the accounts payable. But under accrual basis it was already accounted for another year.

Q

Accounting for accrued liabilities for converting from cash basis to accrual basis

A

accrued liabilities: expense has been incurred but no cash has been paid.

if accrued liabilities increase during the year that means more expenses have been incurred than that have been paid for.

if accrued liabilities increase under cash basis, they are added to get to accrual basis.
