The entire amount is initially credited to Unearned Membership Dues (a liability account). At the end of each month, an appropriate portion of this amount is credited to Membership Dues Earned. Guests of the club members normally pay a court rental fee before being allowed to play. The amounts collected are credited to Court Rental Revenue at the time of receipt. Certain guests are billed for court rental fees at the end of the month. The following information can be used for preparing adjusting entries at December 31, 20x5:
