For May 1st none entry will be required.

Explanation:

For May 1st none entry will be required. The revenue should use conservatism. Tamarisk should wait until the cash proceeds or the delivery of the mowers.

For May 15th it will do:

cash 930

unearned revenue 930

because it receive the cash, but the merchandise is not deliver yet, so it will have the obligation to do so.

For may 31th

unearned revenue 930

sales revenue 930

COGS 632

inventory 632

to recognize the earned revenue from the mowers

and the COGS
