Answer:
Correct option is D.
Unearned Rent Revenue Dr. $16,000
Rent Revenue $16,000
Explanation:
Provided that rent is received for a period of 1 year that is 12 months on May 1, 2010 amounting $24,000
Thus rent per month = $24,000/12 = $2,000 per month
Provided financial year = Calendar year
thus for the year 2010 rent revenue = 1 May to 31 December = $2,000 8 = $16,000
Since revenue = $16,000 for the year and initially was recorded as unearned rent thus for the year $16,000 should be transferred to rent revenue.
For this entry shall be:
Unearned Rent Revenue Dr. $16,000

Full question:
In some states and localities, scalping is against the law although enforcement is spotty
A. Using supply/demand analysis and words, demonstrate what a weakly enforced antiscalping law would likely do to the price of tickets.
B. Using supply/demand analysis and words, demonstrate what a strongly enforced antiscalping law would likely do to the price of tickets
Answer and Explanation:
A. For the first scenario, a weakly enforced antiscalping law would still allow the resale of tickets as it is not enforced properly. Therefore it's effect on price would remain as though there were no laws restricting scalping( scalping: price increase created by artificial shortage and bulk resale of tickets) . See the attached diagram for the supply and demand curve and price increase as a result of a weak antiscalping law
B. For the second scenario, scalping has no effect on price as antiscalping laws are strong and therefore there is no scalping. Price remains the same and does not change.
In diagram A for first scenario price increases from p1 to p2 and quantity decreases from q1 to q2 to indicate increase in price and quantity decrease for shortage respectively. This shows the effect of scalping on the market with weak antiscalping laws
In diagram B, price and quantity remain the same to show strong antiscalping laws
