Cash is no longer king:

  • Cash flows are transformed
  • Cash inflows become revenues
  • Cash outflows become expenses
  • Realization principle (prudence)
  • Matching principle
  • Accounting profit
  • Accrual accounting versus cash accounting

As a result, you can have revenues in a certain period without having cash inflows, you can have cash outflows without having costs (expenses)
