Expert Solution
Step 1

The accrual concept states that the revenues are recognized when earned and the expense is recognized when they are incurred. The accrual concept does not consider when cash is received for the services provided. In the case of accrual basis accounting the revenue in a contract must be recognized every month because the company is providing services to customers every month.
