Lessee issued an invoice end of the month (M1) to the Landlord for leasehold improvements to be reimbursed (lease incentives)
Invoice was booked as follows
DT Accounts Receivable
CT Lease Liability
Cash will only be paid beginning of the following month (M2).
For M1 accounting in Lessee Books, is it ok to book the invoice as shown above even if cash has not been yet collected?
Thanks

Re: Lessee invoice to Lessor for Lease incentives
Yes, you normally show a receivable until the cash is collected. What alternatives did you consider?
PS. why did you credit the lease liability and not the RoU asset?
