  1. What is the Accrual Basis of Finance, and what are Accrued Expenses? Accrued expenses refer to expenses that a business has incurred but not yet paid. These costs are recognized in the income statement when incurred, even if the actual payment is made at a later date. Accrued expenses are an important part of the accrual accounting method and provide a more accurate representation of a company's financial obligations. Common examples of accrued expenses include: Interest Expense: Interest on a loan or line of credit that has been accrued but not paid by the end of the accounting period. Utilities: Services such as electricity, water, and gas that have been consumed but not billed or paid by the end of the billing period. Wages and salaries: Wages and salaries earned by employees but not yet paid at the end of the accounting period.
