Supplies expense = Supplies purchased - Ending supplies
= 3,300 - 310
= $2,990
Service revenue for 1 year received on July 1 = $8,600
Hence, service revenue for 6 month (From July to Dec) = 8,600 x 6/12
= $4,300
Insurance expense paid for 1 year on Feb 1 = $3,800
Hence, Insurance expense for 11 months (From Feb to Dec) = 3,800 x 11/12
= $3,483
