To figure out the entry needed, you know that the current balance in prepaid is $2,000. The unexpired benefits mean the amount of insurance that has not been used, which is the amount Prepaid. Please ask if this is confusing for you, and I'll explain it in detail. You want your Prepaid account to become $400. What is the adjustment to get there? Would you debit or credit Prepaid to lower it? Again, ask if this is confusing. I can explain how it works. The only other question then is what other account is involved. I'd like to see if you can guess that. I'll be happy to help you if you will tell me what you are thinking first. That way, you either understand it or I can see what is confusing you and offer help. Thanks.
