    Computing accrual and cash
    In its first year of operations, Harden Co. earned $39,000 in revenues and received $33,000 cash from
    These customers. The company incurred expenses of $22,500 but had not paid $2,250 of them at yearend.
    Harden also prepaid $3,750 cash for expenses that would be incurred the next year. Calculate
    The first year’s net income under both the cash basis and the accrual basis of accounting.

    Why don't we count the prepaid expenses in either the cash basis or the accural basis? I'm confused on that part
