1. Revenues are reported on the income statement when they are earned—which often occurs before the cash is received from the customers.

The accrual basis of accounting provides a better picture of a company's profits during an accounting period. The reason is that the income statement prepared under the accrual basis will report all of the revenues actually earned during the period and all of the expenses incurred in order to earn the revenues. The accrual basis of accounting also provides a better picture of a company's financial position at a moment or point in time. The reason is that all assets that were earned are reported and all liabilities that were incurred will be reported. The accrual basis of accounting is required because of the matching principle.

Accrual basis is more accurate than cash basis
In accrual basis, revenues are recognized upon the delivery of a good or service, while expenses are incurred upon the acceptance of a good or service, or when a loss is reasonably assured to occur.
Cash basis recognizes inflows and outflows as money changes hands, regardless of whether the goods or services are rendered.
In accounting terms, accrual basis is more reliable due to its conservative nature for recording transactions.
However, if we're discussing financial decision taking, asset management, working capital planning or investment decisions, more emphasis is placed on cash flow and most transactions are reversed into cash basis to evaluate such decisions.
In short, for book keeping, use accrual basis accounting, for financial and investment decisions, revert to cash flows.
