    Answer and Explanation:

    The Journal entry is shown below:-

    On November 2022

    Cash Dr, $193,200 (6,900 * $28)

    To Unearned Subscription Revenue $193,200

    (Being the receipt of the subscriptions is recorded)

    Therefore to record the receipt of the subscriptions we simply debited the cash as it increased the assets and we credited the unearned subscription revenues as increased the liability so that the correct posting could be done
