1. A method of processing accounting in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
creating, by an Access Service Network-Gateway (ASN_GW), an accounting data base (DB) for a mobile station (MS), the ASN_GW including a timer for managing recording of times of state transitions; when a Media Access Control (MAC) state transition of the mobile station occurs, updating, by the ASN_GW, a state information including one or more times managed by the timer in the accounting data base; when a Service Flow (SF) state transition of the mobile station occurs, updating, by the ASN_GW, the state information including one or more times managed by the timer in the accounting data base; and transmitting, by the ASN_GW, an accounting information including the state information to an accounting server.
