Debit to cash means cash is going up, debit to any assets means it is going up.
Since cash is going down, you credit the asset, Cash.

I agree. Although if he submits the receipt to the company, he might then try and claim it as an employee benefit expense.

you only accrue insurance expense at the end of the year/period.
Dr. Prepaid insurance 600
Cr. Cash 600
You are buying an asset, prepaid insurance, for cash.
When you accrue for adjusting entries, you take down your prepaid insurance asset and increase you expense.

Accumulated depreciation exspense CR: 600
The car was recorded at 10,560 earlier.
10,560 / 4 = 2,640 and using the half year rule, 2,640 x .5 = 1,320

If you remember earlier, we purchased $175 worth of Supplies from Staples.
So, if you only have $100 left, that means you used up $75 of supplies.
Dr. Supplies Expense 75

On Dec. 28, you bought a 2 year policy for $600
It is not only Dec. 31…when does the insurance policy start? If it startrs Jan 1, no adjustment is needed. I doubt it will start on Dec. 28, but if it does…
You have used up 3 days out of the entire policy
1 year = 300
3 / 365 x 300 = 2.47
Dr. Insurance Expense 2.47
Cr. Prepaid Insurance 2.47
That is, 2 dollars and 47 cents.
But I believe the correct answer is no adjustment since I believe the policy probably doesn’t start until Jan. 1

Correct.
One thing though, you need to identify your account names better so you don’t mix it up with car depreciation, etc.
