A. Debit to Unearned Consulting Fees for $1,200

Explanation:

Following the information given in the question, Vinfast Co. receives $3,600 cash from FPT Co. for consulting services to be provided evenly over the period November 1, 2021, to April 30, 2022.

Since we want to know the adjusting entry on December 31, 2021, a period form November 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021 is a period of two months out of the 6 months period. Therefore, the unearned consultancy fee will be:

= $3600 × 2/6

= $1200

Therefore, there'll be a debit to the unearned consulting Fees for $1,200. Also, there'll be a credit to the consulting fees earned account by $1200.
