Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is: I believe the question was not copied correctly since the numbers don't match.

The recorded transactions should be:

• Dr Cash 420,000
• Cr Sales Revenue of 300,000
• Cr Unearned Service Revenue of 120,000

Cash account should be debited, since it's an asset. Sales revenue should be credited since it increases equity.Unearned revenue is a type of liability, so it should be credited.
