## What it means for a shop owner

Examples are monthly depreciation and rent due but not yet paid. It makes the profit report honest for the period. Make it before closing the books, not after.

## A worked example

A month rent of 600 has not yet been paid. At month end you record 600 of rent expense against a 600 liability.
