I have read that deferred revenue is the advance that we have received.
e.g. if we have recd advance in the month of March for the goods that we are going to deliver in June isn't it called deferred revenue ?
so its our liability?

yes advance that is received against future sale of goods is our current liability.it shud be deferred and shall be recognized as Income to revenue month on month
Yes deferred revenue is a liability
At the time of receiving a advance, we record the entry
Bank A/c Dr. xxx
To Def.Revenue xxx
When the product or services is delivered over time, it is recognised as revenue in income statement

Thanks a lot
Deferred Revenue (current liability) is the advance recd for the services to be rendered in future
Deferred/Prepaid Expense (current asset) is the advance payment for the expenses to be incurred in future
But then if we read deferred revenue expenditure it's the expense which has been covered in an accounting period. Is it different than the first two concepts?
yes you are right
thank you
like Advertisement Exp.is a deferred revenue expenditure it will be amortised over the period
ok.all these concepts comes under M.com syllabus? i am asking as i havn't persuade post graduations.
