Expenses like income are treated differently depending on your method of accounting (cash or accrual). Cash accounting says a cost is “expensed” when you write the check to pay for it. Accrual accounting expenses the cost when the transaction occurs whether or not money is exchanged, e.g. a supplier may give you 30 days to pay your bill or you may pay your payroll/sales taxes monthly. Accrual accounting attempts to keep expenses matched up with the sale that generated it. Bills that are paid in a lump sum for the year can be accrued (spread out) each month; e.g. unemployment insurance is paid in lump sums which throws off your P&L because of the large payment.

This is a place to the west of Dripping Springs, TX that has metal roofs to collect rainfall and tanks to store it. I love it, but there is a lot more to the story than good bottled water.
