Answer:

a.) matching

Step-by-step explanation:

Matching principle is the accounting principle in which the expenses incurred should be recorded at the same period when the revenues are earned. Also the business incurred the expenses in order to earn the revenues

So as per the given situation since Bob recognized the expenses but it is not paid so here he is using the matching principle

Therefore the option a is correct
