    April 21

    Explanation:

    According to the accrual-basis accounting, transactions are recorded in the periods in which the events occur.

    Companies recognize revenues when they perform services, rather than when they receive cash. Expenses are recognized when incurred, rather than when paid.

    This principal is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

    In this case, the service was performed in April 21.
