Invoicing for July with June

On July 25, your company processes the invoice. The workfile contains a new transaction for 747.50. The system uses this calculation for the workfile transaction:

650.00 cost × 15 percent markup = 97.50

650.00 cost + 97.50 = 747.50

The system creates this journal entry for the June and July workfile transactions by adding the 402.50 and 747.50 that apply to the invoice:
