Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
A/R (Accounts Receivable) and A/P (Accounts Payable) are
- somewhat deep, and require thought to fully understand
- them.
+advanced concepts that are used by businesses to record sales for which
+they are not paid right away, or to record bills that they've received,
+but might not pay until a little while later. These types of accounts
+primarily when you've got a lot of bills and receipts flowing in and
+out, and don't want to loose track of them just because you don't
+pay/get paid right away. For almost all home users, A/R and A/P
+are too complicated and confusing to be worth the effort.
