    Since the college wants to pay $300 later (1000 - 700), Russell's Consulting Services Company will classify this amount as a receivable.

    The journal entry required for this transaction is:

    Cash A/C Dr 700

    Accounts Receivable A/c Dr 300

    To Sale of services 1000

    There are three accounts involved - cash, accounts receivable and sales.

    Of these, cash and accounts receivables are a part of the balance sheet and these accounts will show an increase of $700 and $300 respectively.

    Sales (or Revenues), on the other hand, forms a part of the income statement and will show an increase of $1000.
