Correct Answer: Option A

Explanation

The cash basis is a method of recording accounting transactions for revenue and expenses only when the corresponding cash is received or payments are made. Thus, you record revenue only when a customer pays for a billed product or service, and you record a payable only when it is paid by the company.
