Saumya Sachan · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Unearned subscriptions revenue is a liability account that represents cash received in advance for goods or services that have not yet been delivered or performed. Therefore, it can be satisfied by delivering the goods or performing the services, rather than making a future cash payment. The other options (wages payable, accounts payable, taxes payable) would require future cash payments to satisfy the liabilities.
