Question

ABC opened for business on January 1, 2018, and paid for two insurance policies effective that date. The liability policy was $36,000 for 18 months, and the crop damage policy was $12,000 for a two-year term. What was the balance in ABC's Prepaid Insurance account as of December 31, 2018

Answer 1

Answer:

$18,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Liability policy for 18 months = $36,000

And, the crop damage policy = $12,000 for two years

So by considering the above information, the balance in the ending prepaid insurance account is

= Liability policy ÷ number of years

= $36,000 ÷ 2 years

= $18,000

By dividing the liability policy with the number of years we can get the ending balance and the same is shown above
