  • Insurance expense per month = $400 x 12 months = $4,800, beginning balance prepaid insurance January 1 = $2,800. This means that the insurance policy was purchased ($4,800 - $2,800) / $400 = 5 months before, this means it was purchased in <u>August, 2016</u>.

(c) If $2,500 of salaries was paid in January, what was the balance in Salaries and Wages Payable on December 31, 2016?

  • wages payable on December 31, 2016 = salaries expenses + wages payable balance January 31, - paid salaries = $1,800 + $800 - $2,500 = <u>$100</u>

(d) If $1,600 was received in January for services performed in January, what was the balance in Unearned Service Revenue at December 31, 2016?

  • unearned service revenue on December 31, 2016 = cash received for providing services - service revenue + unearned service revenue balance January 31 = $1,600 - $2,000 + $750 = <u>$350</u>
