    Debit Unearned/Deferred revenue $8,000

    Credit Sales revenue (p/l) $8,000

    Being entries to recognized earned revenue for the period

    Explanation:

    August of 2011, 1 year subscription of $24,000

    Revenue earned per month = $24,000/12 = $2,000

    Revenue earned (between September and December) = $2,000 * 4

    = $8,000

    To recognize this, adjusting entries required on Dec. 31, 2011

    Debit Unearned/Deferred revenue $8,000

    Credit Sales revenue (p/l) $8,000

    Being entries to recognized earned revenue for the period
