Cash-basis accounting is the accounting system that recognizes cash when it is received and bills when they are paid. Cash basis only records revenue when cash is received and not a moment before. 

 

In the accrual basis, revenue is recognized when it is earned and not when it is received. Expenses are recognized when bills are received regardless of when they're paid.

The main difference between accrual and cash basis accounting is the timing of when revenue and expenses are recognized. The cash method is most used by small businesses and for personal finances. The cash method accounts for revenue only when the money is received and for expenses only when the money is paid out.
