Méthode de comptabilité qui consiste à porter en résultat une charge d'un montant égal à la sortie de fonds correspondante au moment où celle-ci est effectuée. 1, record 1, French, - comptabilisation%20au%20d%C3%A9caissement
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Bien que cette expression puisse s'appliquer à tous les cas où une comptabilité de trésorerie est en usage, on ne l'emploie guère que lorsqu'il est question de régimes de retraite. La méthode consisterait alors à ne passer en charges que les sommes versées aux salariés à leur départ ou pendant leur retraite. Toutefois, elle ne convient généralement pas pour comptabiliser correctement les coûts découlant d'un régime de retraite suivant les principes comptables généralement reconnus. 1, record 1, French, - comptabilisation%20au%20d%C3%A9caissement
