Short Answer

Expert verified

In the balance sheet, unearned revenue will be overstated and equity will be understated. And in the income statement, service revenue and net income will be understated.

Step by step solution

01

Impact on Income Statement

Earned revenue will increase the revenues of the business, not recording the adjustments will reduce the service revenue, therefore it will reduce the net income also.

02

Impact on Balance Sheet

Advance revenue received are recorded as unearned revenue. Not recording the adjustment for earned revenue will increase the unearned revenue (Liabilities).Also as net income is decreased, it will decrease equity (Retained earnings).
