Explanation:

#1 unearned revenue

The company should not recognize the summer-month occupancy as this occurs between April and June thereofre it is unearned The company has an obligation to perform. To give the rental space thus it is a liability not earnings.

#2 Supplies adjustment:

Jan 1st $4,600 - March 31st $530 = $4,070 supplies expense

#3 expired insurance:

value per month: $7,500 / 12 months = 625

month expired between Jan 1st and March 31st: 3

total value f expired insurance: $625 per month x 3 month = 1,875

#4 accured expenses concetps were incurred and we most recognize them

#5 each day $270 times 3 days accrued = 810 total wages accrued

#6 accrued interest expense: principal x rate x time

$21,000 x 0.08 x 3/12 = $420
