The matching concept is an accounting practice whereby expenses are
recognized in the same accounting period when the related revenues
are recognized.
The matching concept thus helps avoid misstating earnings for a
period. Reporting revenues for a period without reporting the costs of
producing those revenues would result in overstated profits.
