accrual{-}basis taxpayer
Explanation:
as per the Sollversteuerung discussion entry and vs. cash basis taxpayer.

In the US applies to sales tax and in the UK to VAT. So should apply to the scenario quoted of payment recvd. before the service.

Example sentence(s):
  • The rules for cash basis taxpayers are essentially the same as for cash basis businesses. Cash basis accounting is the alternative to accrual basis
