Question
Explain the revenue principle.
Advertisements
Solution
The revenue principle states that revenue should be recognised when the goods are delivered by sellers and accepted by buyer, i.e., ownership of, goods changes. Hence the revenue is assumed to be realised when a legal right to receive it arises. Credit sales are treated as revenue on the day sales are made and not when money is received from the buyer.
