5) Debit Benefit Expense $amount Credit Accrued Benefit Expense $amount

6) Debit Accounts Receivable ( total of all trips) $amount Credit Service Revenue $amount

Explanation:

The Question is incomplete but i will do the typical journal entries to the transactions without figures.

1) The salaries are for one month and in brackets there is a $80,000*1/12 calculation meaning the $80,000 is for the year, now if it was already recorded then we debit salaries payable $6,667 credit bank $6,667

4) Insurance expense is debited if it is paid as it is incurred but if it has an Prepaid insurance account then we credit the Prepaid insurance account instead of Bank.
