Answer / vinay kumar g.v

There is an inter-relationship among the word accrued, due
and outstanding .

For example, if the person is getting a salary of Rs.30000/-
per month in an organization, every day Rs.1000 will be
"ACCRUING", for the end of the month the entire amount will
become "DUE", and after completion of that month it will
become an "OUTSTANDING SALARY" for the organization.

That outstanding salary is a current liability for the
organization.

Outstanding expenses and income will shown in the balance
sheet as current liability and current assets respectively.
But accrued expenses and income will not shown in the
balance sheet.

Answer / mukund inamdar

To give a best example-
The Credit Card -
Assuming the billing cycle is 5th to 4th of every month, and if we check the usage on 25th of the month, we might see some amount which would be "Unbilled"... It is an accrued expense for us and an accrued income for the Credit Card company. On the other hand, on 4th the bill gets generated and you see XXX amount payable is "Due" and we would have a date which is due date to repay this.. however if we do not pay after the due date it becomes "Outstanding"

Answer / ullash swain

Outstanding- The exepenses which is due but not paid is called outstanding expenses.

For example- Electricity bill cycle date is 15 th march to 14 th April.So vendor would issue invoice after 14th April because electricity consumption on 14 th April would be include.In this case if payment not happened till 14 the April , we can treat it as an Outstanding expenses.

Accrued- The expenses which has been incurred but not accounted in the current month which is called accrued expenses.As invoice not received from the vendors we need to calculate the accrual days on basis of invoice bill cycle date.If accrued expenses has not been accounted in the current month then it will become a outstanding .

Example- In above example, Accrued expenses would be charge as 15 days for the month of march due to invoice has not been generated.

Answer / tamijuddin

For closing a financial year, all expenses related to March month, to be paid subsequently in April, are accrued and shown as a liability in the balance sheet. Corresponding entries debited to Expenses account will be accounted to give a clean Profit & Loss figure. Mostly all the utility bills such as Telephone, Rent, Water, electricity fall under this category. Whereas an outstanding expense is either a whole amount or part amount which could either be paid or written off as per the Company's decision.
