    How would you journalize entries from June 1st- August 31?
    How would you journalize an adjusting entry if the entries are from June - August. Would you just x the insurance expense x 3 to account for 3 months?

    If Aug 31 is the end of an accounting period and or are trying to do an adjusting entry for insurance used for a three month period then you are correct.

    You would have to calculate the mothly amount of insurance and times it by 3 to get the total amount of insurance used.

    The adjusting entry is:
    Debit Insurance Expense for the amount of insurance used
    Credit Prepaid Insurance for the amount insurance used
