pappoo Why not D is also correct?
poomie83 It is a sale resulting in decrease of inventory and increase in revenue and accounts receivable
gill15 Isnt D an increase in Unearned Revenue which is a liability?
Or is it not considered in this case because it is just contractual and no money has been transferred from on to the other?
ddrmax @gill, that's correct. contractual is the key
Shaan23 Gill - could pick up on that. Would not have thought of that. Way to read all the choices.
