What is an accurate description of accrued revenue?
Accrued revenue is income that has been earned but not yet received. An example would be if you own a rental home and the rent is due on the 1st but your tenants do not pay until the 10th of the month.
A contra payment occurs where you owe money to someone, but they also owe money to you, therefore the debt of the person owing the lower amount is cancelled, the other only needs to pay the difference, and it all comes out even.
In accounting software you might set up a "contra account" to be able to handle such a transaction.

Is accounts receivable a real account in accounting and is goodwill a real account in accounting?
Accounting in account real a goodwill is and accounting in account real a receivable accounts is.
Real accounts, i.e. Balance Sheet accounts are ongoing perpetual records and represent "real" items; cash, receivables, inventories, accounts payable, invested capital, etc., etc. Accounts receivable and goodwill therefore are both real accounts as they have value in and of themselves.😧😧
Nominal accounts represent items of income and expense. Nominal accounts have no balances at the beginning of an accounting period and change as various debits and credits are applied as a result of activity of income and expense throughout the accounting period. At the end of the accounting cycle the nominal accounts are returned to zero by debiting them by an amount equal to their credit balance if such exists, or crediting an account if it has a debit balance. The offsetting entry of each of these is to a Profit or Loss Account. If after all accounts are zero, the P&L account has a debit balance then operations were profitable (income exceeded expenses), and conversely with a credit balance a loss was incurred. The P&L is then "closed" by either debited or crediting to bring it to zero, whichever is appropriate, with the offsetting entry going to "Retained Earnings", a real account, and bringing the Balance Sheet into balance and leaving all nominal accounts at zero.
To put it another way if all debits and credits of the General Ledger are added up, then they will both be equal. But if only the debits and credits of the nominal accounts are added up there will be a difference and that difference, depending on whether it's a credit or debit will be the profit or loss. Similarily if the debits and credits of the real accounts are added they will be different by the identical amount of adding the nominal accounts only opposite.

What is the difference between current assets and current liabilities?
A current asset is something you own and that you can sell within one year for a profit.
Here is an example: Say you own a greenhouse, and you currently have 300 bedding plants that you can sell for $3 each. those bedding plants are a current asset because you can sell those plants and make a profit of of them within a year.
Now, a current liability is something that you owe someone and that has to be paid of within a year.
Ok lets go back to that greenhouse Situation: So you own that same greenhouse, and you take out a small loan of X amount of dollars on January 2nd. The bank tells you that you must have this paid off by January 2nd of next year. This would be a current liability...
