Solution
Realisation concept
Explanation:
The realisation concept states that revenue is recognized and deemed to be realized when the goods have been transferred, or the services have been rendered to a customer. There is a reasonable certainty of payment. This principle ensures that revenue is recorded in the accounting period in which it is earned, not necessarily when payment is received.
