A) $200.

B) $1,000.

C) $1,680.

D) $5,000.


C) $1,680.

Collections for services that do not extend beyond the next tax year may be accrued. $800 / 20 months = $40 per month. $40 × 12 months this year = $480 of the $800 accrued this year. $4,000/48 months = $83.33 per month × 12 months = $1,000. ($200 + $480 + $1,000 = $1,680) Note that the balance of the long-term contracts will be recognized in the following year as they cannot be deferred more than one tax year.
