What you "know" is correct! The "income period" you quote is meaningless in isolation! We clearly know the date of receipt but need to know when the taxpayer became entitled. Are we dealing with salary payments due or are we dealing with a bonus payment as although you have not said it in your question we must be dealing with employment income! What is the full wording of the question and where did it come from?
