Russell paid Wallace $20,000 on January 18 and the remaining $55,000 on February 12. One car was sold to Hastings Classics for $24,000. The car was delivered to Hastings on January 25. Hastings paid Wallace on February 1. Required: Calculate the monthly revenue for Wallace for January and February. If answer is zero, enter "0".

Explanation / Answer

Based on accrual method of accounting sales will be recorded when the services is performed

And the seller price is fixed and determinable .In first case $75,000 cars were delivered on Jan 18 hence the transaction is complete on that date irrespective of the fact when cash is paid. Similarly in second case sale is said to take place on Jan 25

Hence January sales = $75,000 +24,000   =     99,000

Feb sales                       = $0
