Answer 1

Answer:

Dr Cash (3,000)

Cr Deferred Revenue (4,000)

Cr Service Revenue (Clinic) (7,000)

Explanation:

Preparation of the appropriate journal entry

Since we were told that kayakers pay the sum of $3,000 at $150 each, by adding to the $4,000 that was already paid in advance on July 30 this means we have to record the transaction by Debiting Cash with the amount of (3,000); Crediting Deferred Revenue with the amount of (4,000) and Crediting Service Revenue (Clinic) with the amount of (7,000)

Note that the credit side of the transaction which is Deferred Revenue of 4,000 -Service Revenue (Clinic) of 7,000 will give us (3,000)

Journal entry

Dr Cash (3,000)

Cr Deferred Revenue (4,000)

Cr Service Revenue (Clinic) (7,000)
