    No. He is not selling the car to the business for cash, but rather investing.

    No.

    Dr. Rent Expense 1,500
    Cr. Cash 1,500

    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.

    not neccessary??
    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.

    depreciation exspense DR: 220
    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

    Dr. depreciation exspense 1,320
    Cr. Accumulated depreciation 1,320

    -have no idea on this one :(

    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
    Cr. Supplies 75

    Quote Originally Posted by lilsar427

    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

    I got 29.58, but rounding, I get 30 as well.

    Correct.

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