Step 1

Accrual transactions are the transaction which are recorded on happening of event without considering actual realisation or disbursement of cash. It reflects the true view of the performance of business.

Deferral transactions are those which are not recognised immediately but recognised after certain period. This occurs when we pay some expenses for more than the period of financial year or received in advance. In this, we create asset or liability instead of expense or income.
