The following independent events for New Age Theatre Ltd. during the year ended November 30, 2018, require a transaction journal entry or an adjusting journal entry, or both. The company adjusts its accounts annually.

1. On June 1, 2017, the theatre purchased vehicles for $80,000 cash. The vehicles' estimated useful life is five years and the company uses straight-line depreciation.

2. The theatre has eight plays each season. This year's season starts in October 2018 and ends in May 2019 (one play per month). Season tickets sell for $320. On October 1, 400 season tickets were sold for the 2018-2019 season. The theatre credited Unearned Revenue for the full amount received on October 1 and uses a Ticket Revenue account to record revenue earned from season tickets.

5. The New Age Theatre rents a portion of its facilities for $400 a month to a local dance club that uses the space for rehearsals. On November 2, the dance club's treasurer made a mistake and accidentally sent a cheque for only $40 for the November rent.

The dance club's treasurer promised to send a cheque in December for the balance when she returned from vacation. On December 4, the theatre received a $360 cheque for the balance owing from November.

6. The total weekly payroll is $7,000, paid every Monday for employee salaries earned during a seven-day workweek running from Sunday to Saturday. Salaries were last paid (and recorded) on Monday, November 26, and will be paid next on Monday, December 3. November 30 falls on a Friday this year.
