Prаirie Signаl Inc. entered intо а subscriptiоn agreement fоr the issuance of common shares at $20 per share. One investor subscribed for 500 shares and paid a deposit equal to 30 percent of the total subscription price, with the remaining balance due in 90 days. Before the final payment was made, the investor defaulted on the agreement. Under the terms of the contract, Prairie Signal retained the deposit and cancelled the subscription. The accounting team is debating how to reflect this transaction in the financial statements. One accountant suggests recognizing the forfeited amount as revenue because the company has received cash. Another suggests increasing retained earnings because the company’s net assets have increased. The controller rejects both approaches and emphasizes the need to reflect the underlying nature of the transaction. Which of the following best reflects the appropriate accounting treatment?
