    The amount of unexpired insurance applicable to future periods is 4000
    The balance in the prepaid insurance account, before adjustment at the end of the year is $18,630.

    Journalize the adjusting entry required under each of the following alternatives for determining the amount of the adjustment.

    a. The amount of insurance expired during the year is $14,160.

    b. The amount of unexpired insurance applicable to future periods is $4,470.
