A. Debit Cash $3,000 debit Unearned Catering Revenue $1.000; credit Catering Revenue Earned $4,000

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Cash A/c Dr $3,000

Unearned catering revenue A/c Dr $1,000

To Catering revenue earned A/c $4,000

(Being unearned revenue is recorded)

Since advance payment of $1,000 is made which is 25% of the deposit amount. So, the deposit amount would be

= $1,000 * 100 : 25

= $4,000

And, the remaining balance i. e $3,000 was paid in cash so we debited the cash account with this amount
