Answer:
A) Information asymmetry.
Explanation:
An information asymmetry can be defined as a situation where there is an imbalance of information between two parties in their knowledge of important points, factors and details. Thus, because one party has more information or knowledge than the other, this usually results in an inefficient outcome and or failure.
The theory of information asymmetry was developed and introduced by three (3) notable Nobel prize winning economists, namely; Michael Spence, George Akerlof and Joseph Stiglitz.
In this scenario, Matthew a divisional manager at Venus Inc. reports to the CEO of the company. Matthew has more employees working for him than required and he has not told the CEO about this, even though there are other departments that are in need of more employees.
<em>Hence, the concept illustrated here is an information asymmetry.</em>

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
