Receipt of payment from the buyer in 1C 8.3

In accounting, an advance is an advance payment in the form of a sum of money that is transferred from the buyer to the supplier as payment for services not yet provided, work not performed, or goods not shipped.

The advance payment is not income for the organization that received it until certain services are provided to the customer (or the previously paid goods arrive at the warehouse). From this article you will learn about the specifics of reflecting advances issued and received, as well as about the documents on the basis of which entries are made in accounting for advances.

Accounting for settlements with customers during sales

Revenue from the sale of goods (work, services) is recognized as income from an ordinary type of activity and is reflected in the credit of account 90 “Sales”.

If the sale is one-time and is not a regular activity of the enterprise (for example, the sale of a fixed asset), then the proceeds are reflected as part of other income under the credit of account 91 “Other income and expenses”.

These two accounts 90 and 91 will be discussed in detail a little later; they are interesting and unlike other accounts, they have their own characteristics. It is necessary to calculate VAT on the sale price of goods (works, services) and send it for payment.

62	91/1	Revenue from the sale of fixed assets, intangible assets, materials is reflected
91/2	68	VAT accrued on sold assets
51	62	Payment received from buyer

Other transactions - the supplier’s invoice for materials, work, services has been paid

The current account, the transactions with which we examined in the previous section, is most often used in settlements between economic entities. However, payment can be made not only from it; there are other ways to make it. Account correspondence can take the following form:

Dt 60 Kt 50 - paid to the supplier in cash; the supplier's cash receipt must be attached to the receipt documents if he is required to use a cash register.
Dt 60 Kt 52, 55 - if payment is made by bank transfer from a foreign currency or specialized account in a banking institution.

The choice of subaccount for account 60 in the proposed entries will also depend on when the payment occurred - before or after the receipt of products, works, services, etc.

If the buyer transfers his own bill of exchange as a guarantee of payment for goods, works, services, then accounts payable from account 60 are not written off, but are reflected in a separate sub-account intended for accounting for bills of exchange. Posting - the supplier's invoice is paid with its own bill of exchange - may look like this:

Dt 60.1 Kt 60 “Settlements on bills issued.”

When repaying his own bill, the buyer will write:

Dt 60 “Settlements on bills issued” Kt 50, 51, 52, 55.

Accounting for advances received in settlements with customers

If the buyer pays for the goods in advance and makes an advance payment, then to account for settlements with buyers, in this case, subaccount 2 “advance received” is opened on account 62, while subaccount 1 will reflect settlements with buyers in the general case.

VAT is considered and payable on advances received. Then, when goods, works or services are transferred to the buyer, VAT is charged again, this time on the proceeds. The accrued amount of VAT on the advance received is restored, and then an entry is made to offset the advance. You can read more about accounting for VAT on advance payments in the article: “Accounting for VAT on advance payments and gratuitous transfers.”

In fact, account 62 “Settlements with buyers” reflects the buyer’s debt to the seller, that is, accounts receivable. Postings to account 62 are made at the time the sale is made, that is, at the time the goods are shipped.

Thus, account 62 reflects settlements with customers and 3 sub-accounts can be opened on it: (click to expand)

subaccount 1 – to reflect settlements for regular sales;
subaccount 2 – to account for the advance received;
subaccount 3 – for accounting for bills received.

How to organize accounting

Accounting is organized according to separate accounts in the context of the purpose for which the prepayment was issued. This allows specialists to maintain proper analytical records and control the effective and appropriate spending of money in the organization. Accounting for a budgetary institution is regulated by Instruction No. 162n (Order of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation dated December 6, 2010) and Instruction No. 157n (Order of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation dated December 1, 2010).

All advance transactions in budgetary institutions are reflected in accounts 0 208 00 000 “Settlements with accountable persons” and 0 206 00 000 “Settlements for advances issued” (Instruction approved by Order of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation No. 25n dated 02/10/2006). To receive an advance payment, the employee must write a corresponding statement, which will reflect the purpose and deadline for issuing the money (clause 155 of Instruction No. 25n).

When is it issued?

An advance is the issuance of a partial amount of money to achieve certain goals. In budgetary institutions, an advance payment, the transactions for which we will consider in the article, is issued for the following operations:

payment of wages;
transport and utilities;
general business expenses;
acquisition of inventory, fixed assets and fuels and lubricants;
travel expenses.

The issuance of advanced funds is reflected through cash outgoing orders; the advance payment (entries will be presented in our article) is offset through incoming cash orders. All actions are recorded in the Journal of settlements with accountable persons.

General points ↑

What is the essence of the advance and when can it be issued? These are the first questions that are worth understanding. Let's turn to the legislation and highlight the basic information.

Concepts

An advance is money or other valuables of a material nature that are transferred from one party to another to fulfill their obligations before the start of fulfillment of counter obligations.

But there is no exact definition in the legislation. Advance payment is an advance payment that should not be confused with a deposit. What is the main difference?

If a party fails to fulfill its obligations, the deposit is not returned to it. This does not happen with an advance payment - it will be returned. An advance is not a form of securing an agreement.

An advance is proof that the terms of the contract will be fulfilled. Any preliminary payments are considered advances, unless otherwise provided by the contract.

Who is issuing?

Advance is issued:

management of the company as partial payment for employees;
by the customer when concluding construction contracts until the provision of services or performance of work;
by the buyer to the supplier as a form of crediting supplies until the products are shipped;
by the buyer of real estate as a guarantee of the transaction.

Legal regulation

The advance payment is discussed in the following articles of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation:

380;
711;
735;
823.

The issues of payment of advances are also considered in Federal Law No. 311-FZ of Russia (Section 2, Chapter 11, Article 121 - transfer of advance customs amounts).
Payment of advance income tax is discussed in Art. 286 of the Tax Code of Russia. Operations for payment of advances are carried out in accordance with the norms of PBU 9/99 and PBU 10/99.
