I am transferring a site to someone and he asked to change the adsense code for him. Can he receive adsense income once I change the publisher ID code to his?

      No, that's the old way. I don't think google allows a swapping of
      an ID because each block is created and named. As far as I know,
      you must create the code yourself and copy it exactly from your
      account. If it uses the old way of coding, you might get away
      with it. But I doubt if you are using the old code, but your own created
      code.

      If you just swap IDs, the adsense probably will not show up. Google
      will not match the ID with the ad block name and settings. Google would
      not know what to do with it. If you have a 728x90 ad block named
      topads728, and put another ID, google is going to look for the settings of
      an ad block named topads728 on that ID. Obviously, none is going to
      be found.

      You will have to create codes using the other adsense account.

      If not, you may see ads, get clicks, but nobody getting credit.

    If he already have an adsense account you can simply change the Publisher ID to his.
    He     will see the earnings in his adsense account.

    Yes, I'm pretty sure this should still work. At the very worst though he can create the ad in his account and send you the code.

      Don't do it. There was a whole thread here recently about someone
      doing exactly that, getting clicks, but no money.

      Seriously. Changing the ID will not work correctly due to the
      reasons stated. Each ID defines ad block names and settings.
      They are not transferrable.

      Since you are thinking of just changing the ID, no reason you
      cannot replace the whole code. Google itself tells you to do
      this. You need to generate the code yourself, copy, replace.

      People who are cargoing on about changing IDs are refering to
      the (really) old way of generating adsense code. You did not
      need to generate the code, but could come up with it on
      your own. As I said above, I doubt seriously if the site uses
      the old fashioned code.

      There is no reason to not replace the whole code!

      Ads also have a unique ad slot. If you just change the ID, what
      are you going to do with the ad slot #?

      Change the whole code.
