a)

It refers to $1 280 of service fee revenue that was collected last year (2018) but the laundry services are only being provided in the current year. Hence the amount of $1 280 service fee revenue received in advance that was adjusted on 31 December 2018 is reversed and added to this year’s service fee revenue on 1 January 2019.

b)

Service fee revenue collected

=$25 000 + $33 500 

=$58 500

c)

Dr Service fee revenue

   Cr Service fee revenue received in advance

d)

Total service fee revenue to be transferred is $71 880.

e)

On 15 October 2020, the business has provided the laundry services worth $12 900 but the customer has not paid yet.

f)

The amount refers to the service fee revenue of $800 collected this year while laundry services will only be provided next year after 31 December 2019. Therefore this amount needs to be removed from the total amount of service fee revenue earned for the year as an adjustment.

g)
