Answer / mohan
Receipt and payment account is nothing but a cash account
which starts with opening balance of cash and all receipts
and payments whether capital or revenue or whether
pertaining to last year,current year,or next year are
recorded.The net result is the closing balance and the
balance is always debit since the payment side can not be
more that receipt side.
As against Income and Expenditure account only records
revenue expenditure whether paid or not and only pertaing
to current year.
The non cash expenses like depreciation are also recored in
Income and Expenditure Account.
The resultant figure of Income and expenditure account is
either excess of income over expenditure or excess of
expenditure over income.
Thus the income and expenditure can have debit or credit
balance.
Receipt and payment account is prepared for all types of
organisations including profit making organisations.
The Income and Expenditure account is only prepared by Non-
profit making organisation.

Answer / xxx
Receipt and payment account is a mere summary of cash book for a year. It begins with the cash in hand at the commencement and ends with that at the close of the year. Similarly to cash account, in receipts and payments account receipts are shown on the debit side while payments are shown on the credit side, without any distinction between capital and revenue. Moreover, it does not include an unpaid expenditure not any unrealized income relating to the period under review and so fails to reveal the financial position on the concern.
Income and expenditure account is merely another name for profit and loss account. Such type of profit and loss account is generally adopted by non trading concerns like clubs, societies, hospitals, and like etc. This account is credited with all earnings (both realized and unrealized) and debited with all expenses (both paid and unpaid) The difference represents a surplus of deficiency for a given period which is carried to the capital account. It should be noted that items of receipts or payments of capital nature such as legacies, purchases or sales of any fixed assets must not be included in this account.
