That is not exactly an appropriate accounting answer to the question and will only serve to mix up the OP about recognizing revenues and expenses properly - they sometimes have a hard enough time with this concept without having incorrect ideas reinforced. You don't "receive" income, you earn it. And "bills" are not always expenses. You know better than that.
