Basis of Accounting. Unless otherwise specified by the funding source, CONTRACTORS may elect to use either the cash basis or accrual basis of accounting during the year for recording financial transactions. Monthly invoices must be prepared on the same basis that is used for recording financial transactions. The COUNTY recommends the use of the accrual basis for recording financial transactions. Under the accrual basis for recording financial transactions, revenues are recorded in the accounting period in which they are earned (rather than when cash is received). Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which they are incurred (rather than when cash is disbursed).
