PrimeFlix sells one-year online subscriptions for viewing classic movies. Customers are required to pay for the subscription at the beginning of the subscription period. On April 1, 2021, total sales of one-year subscriptions are $12,000. What is the adjusted balance of Deferred Revenue on December 31, 2021?
$9,000.
$3,000.
$0.
$12,000.
Answer :-
Total subscription received on 1 April 2021 = $ 12,000
Total Months for which subscription is received = 12 Months ( One year )
Months Relating to year 2022 for which subscription received on 1 April 2021 = 3 Months
So the Revenue is to be deferred for the 3 Months
Adjusted balance of Deferred Revenue on December 31, 2021 = $ 12,000 *3 /12 = $ 3,000
Deferred Revenue = $ 3,000
So 2ND option is correct
