The year end given in this question is December 31, 2016 and the insurance premium is for one year and since the insurance premium is paid on April 1, 2016, therefore, only expense in respect of 9 months i.e. from April 1, 2016 to the December 31, 2016 will be recognised in this year. Remaining expense of three months will be recognised in the Year ended December 31,2017.

                                                                   Debit             Credit

Insurance expense(3,000*9/12)               2,250

Prepaid Insurance                                                            2,250
