Respuesta :

Answer:

200 ; 200 ; 600

Explanation:

Given that

Four month insurance policy amounted to $800

So for one month, it is

= Four month insurance policy  ÷ number of months

= $800 ÷ 4

= $200

So, the journal entry is

Insurance expense A/c Dr $200

       To Prepaid insurance A/c $200

(Being the insurance expense is recorded)

And, the remaining balance in the prepaid insurance account is

= $800 - $200

= $600
