Question

On September 1, 2021, Gold Gaming sold 400 one-year subscriptions to its online gaming website for $90 each. The total amount received was credited to Deferred Revenue. What would be the required adjusting entry at December 31, 2021?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The adjusting entry is shown below:

Deferred Subscription Revenue A/c Dr $12,000

            To Subscription revenue A/c $12,000

(Being the deferred subscription amount is adjusted)

The computation is shown below:

= Number of subscriptions sold × sale price each × (number of months ÷ total number of months in a year)

= 400 subscriptions × $90 × (4 months ÷ 12 months)

= $36,000  × (4 months ÷ 12 months)

= $12,000

The four months are reported from the September 1 to December 31
