I can think of nothing that will do that in one transaction. Revenue generally does not effect your liabilities.

An unearned revenue is a liability, however, it "increases" your liabilities and increases your assets at the same time. Once the unearned revenue is "earned" it then increases your "revenue" and you decrease your liability.
