cash basis sustem of accounting

This query is : Resolved 

18 November 2008 hello friendz....
can any one tell me the exact meaning cash base system of accounting?
i think its meaning is when u actually paid expense then record it as expense similarly for income also.
suppose
i purchased materials worth rs 50000 on six month credit from supplier on 1.02.2008.now under cash system of accounting what entry i should pass on 01.02.08?
as i have not paid i cant treat it as expense
n if i dont pass any entry then as on 31.03.2008 my balance sheet will not gice true n fair view.....
plz reply
treat assessee as individual/firm etc.
bcoz co.has to follow sec 209

18 November 2008 as an individual/firm assessee u can't pass the entry until the payment is made.
as u said that in this way correct position might not be shown on 31/3.
but becz of this default ,we follow accrual system.
therefore, entry will not be passed whether it shows a wrong position.

18 November 2008 It arises only cash movements i.e cash payments and cash receipts.
