Explanation:

Throughout the fiscal year, some accounts have been maintained on a fully deferred basis. On June 30, revenue related to these accounts is accrued by adjusting the Provision for Deferred Receivables in the manner stated in "a". Revenue earned in this fiscal year is assumed to be collectible within the ensuing fiscal year unless information exists to the contrary. Therefore, a worksheet showing the computations of amounts of accounts receivable that probably will not be collected during the ensuing fiscal year will be prepared. This uncollectible amount will not be accrued as revenue.  All other revenue earned in this fiscal year will be included in this entry.

This accrual entry is partially reversed as of July 1 (see Entry No. A–9R).
