Monthly Insurance Expense = $4,824 / 12 months = $402
| Date | General Journal | Debit | Credit |
| March 1 | Prepaid Insurance | $ 4,824.00 | |
| Cash | $ 4,824.00 | ||
| (Being One year Insurance policy purchased) | |||
| Adjusting Entry: | Insurance Expense | $ 402.00 | |
| Prepaid Insurance | $ 402.00 | ||
| (Being monthly insurance expense recorded) |
Prepaid Insurance as on December 31, 2016 = Insurance Permium - (Insurance expense per month * Months expired)
= $4,824 - ($402 * 10 months)
= $4,824 - $4,020
= $804
If the premium has been paid for 2 years, the prepaid insurance shall be
Current Asset (From Jan 1, 2017 to Dec 31, 2017) = $402 per month * 12 months = $4,824
Non Current Asset (From Jan 1, 2018 to Feb 28, 2018) = $402 * 2 months = $804
True, Prepaid expense does reflects as an asset for more meaningful net income amount because they help to folllow the matching concept of acc ounting.
