    The amount of revenue recognizable in 2021 is $84000 as shown below

    Explanation:

    Since the revenue spans over two years, 8 months in the year 2021 and the remaining 4 months relate to 2022, the revenue should be recognized on proportional basis.

    The revenue in 2021 = total revenue*months in the year/12 months

    =$126000*8/12

    =$84000

    This amount is recorded on monthly basis by crediting revenue with one month sales revenue value $10500 ($126,000/12) and debiting to deferred revenue.

    At the end of the year four months worth of revenue amount would be left in deferred revenue account as revenue for 8 months would have been recognized.
