For each separate case below, follow the three-step process for adjusting the unearned revenue liability account at December 31.
Step 1: Determine what the current account balance equals.
Step 2: Determine what the current account balance should equal.
Step 3: Record the December 31 adjusting entry to get from step 1 to step 2.
Assume no other adjusting entries are made during the year.

(a) The Krug Company collected $9,000 rent in advance on November 1, debiting Cash and crediting Unearned Rent Revenue. The tenant was paying 12 months' rent in advance and occupancy began November 1.
(b) The company charges $100 per month to spray a house for insects. A customer paid $400 on October 1 in advance for four treatments, which was recorded with a debit to Cash and a credit to Unearned Services Revenue. At year-end, the company has applied three treatments for the customer.
