Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

Cash-basis accounting is a system based on the exchange of cash. In this system, revenue is recognized only when cash is collected, and an expense is recognized only when cash is disbursed. Cash-basis accounting is not an acceptable method under GAAP.

Accrual accounting is the required method of reporting under GAAP. Under accrual accounting, revenues are recognized when earned, and expenses are recognized when incurred. The recognition of revenues and expenses does not always occur in the same accounting period as the related cash receipts and cash disbursements.
