Answer:

Security First

Debit Accounts Receivable $2,760

Credit Consulting Revenue $2,760

To record the accrued revenue for consulting services.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Value of a consulting services contract = $4,140

Period of services = December 12 to January 10

Payment date = January 10

The fee will be divided by 30 days with 20 days' apportioned to the current year while 10 days' will be apportioned to the following year, thus:

Current year's revenue = $4,140 * 20/30 = $2,760

Next year's revenue = $4,140 * 10/30 = $1,380

Therefore, the unadjusted balance in Consulting Revenue will increase by $2,760 with the corresponding debit entry in the accounts receivable account.
