Deferred revenue is money received in advance for products or services that are going to be performed in the future. Rent payments received in advance or annual subscription payments received at the beginning of the year are common examples of deferred revenue.
Deferred expenses, also called prepaid expenses or accrued expenses, refer to expenses that have been paid but not yet incurred by the business. Common prepaid expenses may include monthly rent or insurance payments that have been paid in advance.
