Abrechnungszeitraeume charging periods, settlement periods, billing periods Explanation: hth -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 24 mins (2005-04-06 21:46:01 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I did not mention accounting period although it is listed in Eichborn as well, because: http://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/accountingperiod.asp: 1. In general, the time period reflected by a set of financial statements. 2. In terms of taxation, it is the 12-month period a taxpayer uses to determine their income tax. Billing period is the period after that a company pays its bills. E.g. they collect all invoices for a week and then pay all of them in a single batch job |
