Explanation:

This entry is used to record the billing for unpaid abatements, reimbursements, revenue, and other income items. In most cases revenue and abatement items are collected when due and normally require no billings. When Accounts Receivable—Revenue and Accounts Receivable—Other are billed, they are credited to a reserve account until collected and cleared as revenue. In contrast to this procedure, abatements are applied as decreases of expenditures and most types of reimbursements are applied as income when billed. Certain types of reimbursements are fully reserved with final accounting to be made either at the time of collection or at the time remittances are ordered into the treasury, depending upon the specific law governing the transaction. The bills are recorded in the Invoice Register as of the date they are prepared.

Abatements and reimbursements that have been accrued previously as receivables but not billed will not be included in this entry when billed. However, Accounts No. 1311, 1312, 1600, and 9893 will be adjusted for the difference between the amounts billed and the amounts previously accrued.
