TURE
Cash receit is not important for any revenue to be matched in specific period it is the timing of actual expense or income which is matched and cash receipt and payment may be done at later time.
Revenue recognition is one of the principles of accrual accounting. The principle states that revenues are recognized when they are realised and earned, regardless of when cash is received. This contrasts with the principle of cash accounting, where one recognizes revenues only when one actually receives cash.
Realization concept is also known as Revenue recognition concept. Under this concept revenue is said to be recognized by the seller when it is earned irrespective of cash received or not.
This depends on when the cash was received. If the cash was received at the time of sale, then the owner's equity will increase. This is because revenue (and subsequently owner's equity) is increased at the time it is earned. If, on the other hand, the cash is received as a result of a collection on Accounts Receivable from a previous sale, this will have no affect on owner's equity. This is because the revenue was recognized as soon as the receivable was recorded (i.e., the revenue was earned).
