to record sales of magazines subscriptions

unearned subscriptions revenue   225,600

to record accrued earnings from magainzes subcription

Explanation:

We will enter the subscriptions as unearned because, the company has the obligation to deliver 12 magazines to each customer. The revenue will be accrued over time along with the magazines delivered.

August 1st:

11,280 magazines subscriptions x $20 = $225,600

August 1st to December 31th: 5 months

earned portion:  225,600  x 5/12 = 94,000
