Under the mercantile system, a continuing obligation to provide promised facilities and amenities over a long-term timeshare membership period gave rise to an accrued, estimable liability, so proportionate revenue recognition was permissible. The Court held that the concept of deferred income is not alien to the Income-tax Act and applied the matching principle to the assessee's advance membership collections.
