True

Explanation:

The company received $15000 and credited it to the unearned consulting Revenue accounts because it had not performed any services yet.

According to the accrual principle, the company can only report the amount earned in a period. If the company achieves the required 10% of consulting services by 31st march, it will record 10 percent of $15,000 as its income.

10 percent of $15000 = 10/100 x $15000

=$1500
