Alexxandr [17]3 years ago

Answer: Fiction

Explanation: According to some theorists, public opinion is a rhetorical construction. This means that it is a phantom, having no real link to "the public" as citizens. These theorists go on to claim that politicians and journalists tend to state that public opinion regarding a certain issue is concluded without any available evidence, or public's influence. However this is only one form of the definition of public opinion.

Other types of definitions include:

Public opinion is an aggregation: Journalists and politicians claim public opinion is the total of a lot of individual opinions.

Public opinion reflects the majority's beliefs: Theorists claim that public opinion is the equivalent of the values and beliefs of the majority.

Public opinion is discovered in groups clashing: Some theorists believe public opinion lies in power dynamics within a group, and how it coexists, or fails to do so, with other groups.

Public opinion reflects media: Theorists believe that public opinion is best gathered from what politicians, journalists and other influential elites believe.

On April 1, Garcia Publishing Company received $32,580 from Otisco, Inc. for 36-month subscriptions to several different magazin
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: Debit Unearned Fees, $8,145; Credit Fees Earned, $8,145.

Explanation:

The $32,580 are for 36 months so the amount per month would need to be calculated.

= 32,580/36

= $905

The subscriptions were paid on the 1st of April which means that only 9 months (April to December) of the first year will have revenue recognized for them.

= 905 * 9

= $8,145

Correct entry would be to debit the Unearned fees account as it is a liability that needs to reduce to reflect that fees have now been recognized.

Credit the Fees Earned account to recognize revenue.

Debit Unearned Fees, $8,145; Credit Fees Earned, $8,145.
