Answer:

The answer is: Deferred revenue is $182,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The city received $600,000 and incurred in $418,000 of qualifying expenditures. So the deferred revenue is:

  • Deferred revenue = $600,000 - $418,000 = $182,000

Deferred revenue is a liability that results from unearned revenue that a company received, but has not delivered yet (either goods or services).
