I have no idea, you didn't say why you were asking this question. Am I supposed to assume it is a journal entry or something like that ?

Prepaid insurance is a asset account with a debit balance. When that months (or however long the payments are set for) prepaid insurance is expired, the prepaid account is credited for 1 months rent and the insurance expense account is debited for that amount also.

It is a debit because it is an asset to your company

Prepaid insurance is a debit balance because it is an asset to u who holds the insurance policy. But it is a liability to the insurance coy which means is a credit balance to d insurance coy because the cash received for the insurance policy have to be provided back to u in future in case of any risk u suffered.
