In 2020, Neighbor Co-Op Inc. sells 1,000 beverages in glass bottles and receives a $1.00 deposit for each returnable bottle sold. As of December 31, 2020, a total of 800 glass bottles were returned and deposits on 120 bottles were forfeited because it is the company's policy that a deposit must be claimed within 30 days. The remaining 80 bottles are still with customers within the 30-day claim period.

Required:
a. Record the collection of deposits in 2020.
b. Record the return of glass bottles in 2020.
