PREPARATION OF ADJUSTMENTS. West Beach Resort operates a resort complex that specializes in hosting small business and professional meetings. West Beach closes its fiscal year on January 31, a time when it has few meetings under way. At January 31, 19x5, the following data are available:

a) A training meeting is under way for 16 individuals from Liz Claiborne. Liz Claiborne paid $1,500 in advance for each person attending the 10-day training session.

The meeting began on January 27 and will end on February 5. West Beach credits collections in advance to unearned revenue.

c) Depreciation on golf carts used to transport the guests’ luggage to and from their rooms is recorded, assuming a 3-year life with no residual value. West Beach owns four carts that cost $3,600 each and six that cost $3,900 each. All golf carts require a full year’s depreciation.
