Shortly before the end of the current year, the company earned $1,000 by providing services to a customer but the customer does not pay the company until the following year. Nothing is recorded regarding these events, including year-end adjusting entries. This omission would cause the company's current year

    Balance sheet:

    Assets (account receivable) is understated by 1,000

    Equity (Retained Earnigns) is understated by 1,000

    Net Income:

    Sales revenue is understated by 1,000

    Cash flow: no effect.
