    Answer: B. Debit to Tuition Discounts and Allowances, $12,000.

    Explanation:

    A scholarship is considered a discount so should be recorded as one. When recording a discount, it is debited to its own account which in this case will be the Tuition Discounts and Allowances account.

    The full entries are,

    DR Cash (50,000 - 12,000) $38,000

    DR Tuition Discounts and Allowances $12,000

    CR Tuition and Fees $50,000
