This is income that is not yet due but cash has been received for it. This happens where an income is payable in advance e.g. Rent payable 3 months in advance. A prepaid income should not be reported in the current financial period but should be carried forward and reported in the period it relates to. The accounting treatment will be to show it as a current liability.
