Eliza Sanders · Answer 1

cash 2,790 debit

unearned revene 2,790 credit

unearned revenue 1,860 debit

rent revenue 1,860 credit

Explanation:

The revenue from the rent is unearned as currently the firm has to provide the rent spance for three months It will be earned as time passes.

At year-end December 31th we have earned 2 months (Nov and Dec) therefore we reocgnize for that amount

2,790 x 2/3 months = 1,860 rent revenue
