Unpaid Expenses

Unpaid expenses are costs incurred but not yet paid at the end of an accounting period. They are recorded as accrued liabilities and expensed on the income statement. Examples include unpaid salaries, utility bills, or interest. This ensures financial statements reflect all obligations, even if not yet settled.
