    a. You need to transfer 3 months of revenue into unearned revenue because you only earned 2 months of the revenue that was originally recorded. The monthly amount is given to you.

    b. You need to transfer all but 9 months of rent expense into Prepaid rent because you paid rent in advance on 1 Apr. You need to keep 9 months in rent expense because you only used the rent for 9 months. Take the rent expense and divide by 24 months to get the monthly rate.

    c. You need to transfer 1 month of utilities expense to Prepaid Utilities expense because you did not use one month of utilites. The one month of utilities was used in the next accounting period.
