The adjusting entry described is incorrect. Since the company has earned $2,500 by December 31, the correct entry should involve debiting Ticket Revenue for $2,500 and crediting Unearned Revenue (or Deferred Revenue) for the same amount to reflect the recognition of revenue earned from the season tickets. This adjustment ensures that the revenue is accurately recorded in the period it was earned, aligning with the revenue recognition principle.
