Answer:

$1,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the season lasts 4 months, the membership fees must be recognized over the whole 4 month period, that means that the club must recognize $100 / 4 = $25 per month per membership sold.

The company sold 60 season memberships, so it must recognize 60 x $25 = $1,500 in revenues.
