Answer Posted / sameer

1. outstanding income = accrued income ( right defination )= income earned but cash not received. eg rent not received by the end of the book closure or accounting period, Journal entry.Rent (income) will go on cr. side of P&l and Rent receivable will go to B/S under Current asset.

rent receivable Dr.

When we receive rent in cash the entry will be

Cash a/c Dr.
To Rent receivable.

2. Advance Income = defered Revenue = cash received in advance but goods and services not sold/ provided eg
rent received in advance. rent advance a/c will go to current liability side of B/s

cash a/c dr
To rent adv a/c

When rent is charged

rent adv a/c dr
To rent (income) a/c

the amount by which rent is charged will go to p&l and rest of the blce will remain in rent adv will remain in b/s
