Quick Summary
Commission receivable is recorded as income accrued. First entry: Commission Receivable Dr To Commission Income. When received: Bank Dr To Commission Receivable. It is an asset until received and later closed against income. It finally appears in Profit & Loss and balance sheet adjustment.

Suppose you will receive a commission of ₹10000 from mr X then you will pass this journal entry in your books of accounts

mr x a/c Dr
to commission receivable a/c

when you actually received the Commission

bank a/c dr
to mr x a/c
