Deferred means delayed and accrued means earned in layman's language. 

Suppose, your current Financial Year is from Jan 16 to Dec 16. You have paid $2000 to an Advertising Agency in the month of July for a year-long advertisement contract of your business starting from July 16 to Jun 17. You can clearly realize that whole $2000 is not related with your current Financial Year. The amout to the extent relatable to current FY is booked as expenses in the current FY and balance amount is deferred or delayed to be booked as expenses in next Financial Year.

Accrued expenses are those expenses you are liable to pay in cash but haven't paid it yet. Suppose, for a month you have received your Telephone Bill of $20 which will be paid by you in the next month. Such expenses which you have incurred and liable to pay but not yet paid are booked as accrued expenses till the time of actual payment.

  • An accrued expense is a liability that represents an expense that has been recognized but not yet paid.
  • A deferred expense is an asset that represents a prepayment of future expenses that have not yet been incurred.
  • Oftentimes an expense is not recognized at the same time it is paid. This difference requires a business to record either an asset or liability on its balance sheet to reflect this difference in timing.

Accrued expenses are those liabilities that have built up over time and are due to be paid. Accrued expenses are considered to be current liabilities because the payment is usually due within one year of the date of the transaction. Accounts payable are current liabilities that will be paid in the near future.
