PART A

Answer:

Insurance expense debit for 3,800

        Insurance prepaid credit for 3,800

Explanation:

a.- Prepaid Insurance. The Prepaid Insurance account has a $4,700 debit balance to start the year. A re- view of insurance policies and payments shows that $900 of unexpired insurance remains at year-end.

Step 1:  Currently equals to $4,700

Step 2: It should equal $900

In this Case: It is giving us the begining balance, and then it proceeds to tell us the ammount unexpired, which means the ending balance. So the <em>diference will be the adjuting entry</em>

Step 3: $4700 - $900 = $3,800

insurance expense debit for 3,800

  insurance prepaid credit for 3,800

PART B

Answer:

insurance expense 1040  debit

        prepaid insurance               1040credit

Explanation:

b.- Prepaid Insurance. The Prepaid Insurance account has a $5,890 debit balance at the start of the year. A review of insurance policies and payments shows $1,040 of insurance has expired by year-end.

Step 1: Curently equals to $5,890

Step 2: 5,890 - 1,040 expired portion = 4,850 unexpired portion

            The blaance should be 4,850

In this Case: It is giving us the begining balance, and then it proceeds to tell us the ammount expired, which means the adjusting entry. So the <em>diference will be the ending balance</em>

Step 3

The adjusting entry must be made for 1,040 which is the expired portion

insurance expense 1040  debit

       prepaid insurance               1040credit

PART C

Answer:

rent expense   4,000 debit

        prepaid rent                4,000 credit

Explanation:

C.- PrepaidRent. On September 1 of the current year, the company prepaid $24,000 for 2 years of rent for facilities being occupied that day. The company debited Prepaid Rent and credited Cash for $24,000.

Step 1 Current balance is 24,000

In this Case: It is giving us the begining balance, and then it proceeds to tell us <em>information about the contract,</em> which means <em>we are going to work to get the expired portion</em> and with that calculate the ending balance like on part B

Step 2 We are at December 31th the expired portion will be 4 months (September, October, November and December) so:

        24,000

-----------------------------   x 4 months expired = 4,000 expired portion

24 month of contract

24,000 - 4,000 = 20,000

<em>begining - expired = ending AKA "unexpired"</em>

<em>The balance should be equal to 20,000</em>

<em />

Step 3: the adjusting entry should be done for 4,000 which is the expired portion of the rent.

rent expense   4,000 debit

   prepaid rent                4,000 credit
