Sales Revenue

Income from selling goods or services. It is the primary revenue stream for most companies. Recorded net of returns and discounts.

Deferred Expense

Costs paid in advance that will benefit future periods, such as prepaid insurance or rent. Initially recorded as assets, then expensed gradually. Matches costs with related revenues.

Owner’s Benefits Expense (Non-Deductible)

Tracks personal expenses mistakenly or intentionally paid from business funds (e.g., personal groceries, vacations). In accounting, these are recorded separately for clarity, then reclassified as Owner’s Drawings. Ensures accurate tax reporting.

Transfer Pricing

The pricing of goods and services exchanged between divisions of the same company, often across borders. Regulated to prevent tax avoidance. Requires careful documentation.

Interest Income

Earnings from investments, bank deposits, or loans. Provides passive income outside main operations. Recorded when earned, not necessarily received.
