You have to show us your attempt to solve the problem we don't provide worked answers or do your home work for you

Was the annual subscription received in cash?

What proportion of the subscription was earned in December?

Hi,

I tried to solve it but I didn't know how to solve it as well as there is no time because I have to finish my research. Regarding the annual subscription it was received in cash, they didn't mention the proportion in the problem.

All the facts you need are in the problem, you must learn to read with comprehension otherwise you will never be a competent accountant. If you have something more important to do, then do that

If 12000 subscriptions are received in cash and they have an account called unearned subscriptions what is your entry. Come on now read and think about the problem

If funds are received for a twelve months subscription how much is applicable to one month ?to three months ? This is elementary mathematics

Do your lecturers hand feed you in this manner?
