Expenses due in the current period but not paid are accrued expenses. They are recorded as current liability in the current period.

Accrued expense is expense which has been incurred but not yet paid. Expense must be recorded in the accounting period in which it is incurred. Therefore, accrued expense must be recognized in the accounting period in which it occurs rather than in the following period in which it will be paid.

Accrued expenses are expenses that have been incurred by an organization but not yet paid.  Accrued expenses should be recorded in the month the expenses has incurred.  For example, if you had services performed in October, but did not receive the invoice until November, you would record the expense in October since that is when you incurred the expense.  Debit expense, credit accrued expense.  

 

You would reverse this entry in the period the expense is paid so that you do not report duplicate expenses on the financial statements.
