Answer:

$2,400

Explanation:

First divide $4,800 by 12 = $400 per month. Since the company paid the insurance premium on July 1, it must recognize $2,400 (= $400 x 6) as insurance expense for the July - December period. The remaining $2,400 must be recorded under the Prepaid Insurance account which is an asset account in the balance sheet.
