A company provides the following information:
                                                  Year 1         Year 2              Year 3
  Cash receipts from customers:
  From year 1 sales                       $95,000       $120,000
  From year 2 sales                                           200,000         $75,000
  From year 3 sales                                             50,000         225,000
  What is the accrual-based revenue for year 2?
  A. $320,000
  B. $275,000
  C. $370,000
  D. $200,000
  Answer:B
  B is corrent because accrual-based revenues would include all sales made during year 2. The cash received of $200,000 from year 2 sales and the cash received during year 3 of $75,000 for the year 2 sales are included in sales for year 2 ($200,000 + $75,000 = $275,000). Collection of year 1 sales would decrease the accounts receivable account. Collection of year 3 sales during year 2 would be recorded as unearned revenue.
