    a. The Prepaid Insurance account shows a debit balance of $2,340, representing the cost of a three-year fire insurance policy that was purchased on October 1 of the current year.
    b. The Office Supplies account has a debit balance of $400; a year-end inventory count reveals $80 of supplies still available.
    c. On November 1 of the current year, Rent Earned was credited for $1,500. This amount represented the rent earned for a three-month period beginning November 1.
    d. Depreciation on office equipment is $600.
    e. Accrued salaries amount to $400.

    Account Debit Credit
    A Prepaid Insurance $2,340
    Cash $(2,340)

    B Office Supplies


    C Rent


    D Depreciation Expense $600
    Office Equipment $(600)

    E Salary Expense $400
    Accrued Sallaries $(400)


    All right I filled in what I have gotten so far. I am still a little confused on B and C. I don't know really how to list the $80 and what account it is and for c I dk if that's deffered revenue or accrued asset. I have no idea so I am not sure how to go about that.
    So I guess any hints would really help and if you would see if what I had down was good
