Answer:

a. Revenues - These will increase by $5 million to represent the entire value of the order.

b. Earnings. - Increase by $3 million

Earnings in this case are revenue less the cost of inventory which will be;

= 5 - 2

= $3 million

c. Receivables - Increase by $4 million

The customer paid $1 million upfront which means that they still owe $4 million out of the $5 million. This will go to the receivables account to show that the customer owes the business.
