Expert Solution

Since $650,000 cash has been paid for the year 2015 but the insurance expense for the period is only $620,000.

Hence the balance ($650,000-$620,000)=$30,000 would be the prepaid insurance for the period which would be shown in the 'asset' section under the balance sheet.

Hence the prepaid insurance increased by $30000 .

Hence the correct option is C.
