Rebate on bills discounted.

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the accounting treatment of rebates on discounted bills. Initially debated as earned but unreceived income (an asset), the consensus shifts to recognising it as income received in advance, thus a liability. The correct journal entry involves debiting 'Discount on Bills Account' and crediting 'Rebate on Discounted Bills Account' to reflect this advance income.

Income received in Advance is always Liability.
