Explanation:

Accounts Receivable

Date       Description           Debit     Credit   Balance

Dec. 8    Cash                                     $75     ($75)

Dec. 20  Earned Rentals    $750                  $675

Dec. 31   Cash                                 $500      $175

When a rental company accepts payment in advance of its service, it increases the cash balance and reduces the Accounts Receivable.  In the same way, when cash is received for services already rendered and invoiced, the cash balance is increased and the Accounts Receivable reduced by the same amount.

Accounts Receivable represents the total amount owed to a company resulting from the provision of goods and services on credit.  The balance forms part of the current assets in the company's balance sheet.

A journal entry for a sale on account debits account receivable and credits revenue account.  When the customer pays on account, cash is debited while the accounts receivable is credited.  At the end of the period, the account is balanced.
