Answer:

A debit to Unearned Rent and a credit to Rent Earned for $2,400

Explanation:

When cash is collected in advance for revenue from lease, the revenue will not be recorded as revenue until the lease service has been performed. Hence the cash collected in advance will be recorded as

Debit Cash  $6,400

Credit Deferred revenue  $6,400

Being cash collected on October 1 for lease to run for 8 months.

Between October 1 and December 31 is 3 months.

Hence, amount earned

= $800 × 3

= $2,400

To recognize this amount, Debit Unearned/Deferred revenue, credit revenue with the amount earned.
