They refer to earnings which have been earned but not yet billed.

Explanation:

Accrued revenue refers to cash earned for selling a good or delivering a service yet the cash has not been received and the transaction was not recorded in the books as revenue. This means that the cash has been earned but it has not been billed to the customer it was earned from.

When the books are being adjusted for this, the accounts receivable - which is an asset account - will increase to show that cash is owed. Revenue will also increase as this was cash earned from delivering a good or service.

Butoxors [25]

The price of elasticity of the product maybe considered inelastic since there is little to no responsiveness to the change in price of the product. A factor or reason can be that it is a necessity so persons still have to buy the product no matter the change in price.
