Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Monthly insurance =  (1140/12) =120

Insurance expenses = 120* 7= 840

Debit insurance expenses 840 , Credit prepaid insurance 840

2. Rent in advance for 5 months = 5800

Monthly rent = 5800/5 =1160

Rent for 4 months till December 31 = 1160*4 = 4640

Debit rent expenses 4640 , Credit Prepaid rent 4640

3.Unearned revenue for 9 months = 4230

Monthly  revenue =  470

Revenue earned = 470*4 =1880

Debit revenue 1880 , credit unearned revenue 1880

4.Prepaid cleaning expense 950* 2 = 1900

Debit cleaning service 950 , credit prepaid cleaning service 950

5.Unearned cash revenue =1400

cash revenue earned = 1400-350 = 1050

Debit revenue 1050 , credit unearned revenue 1050
