    Insurance premiums are sometimes paid
    Annually.
    If you know what the annual premium is
    And at Balance Date you still have not paid
    It, you must calculate the portion that
    You should have paid for the period of the commencement of the policy and the
    Date of closure of your accounts.
    This accued amount should be charged to the profit anf loss account.
    The Journal Entry is :-

    DEBIT Insurance Expense $ XXX.XX
    CREDIT Accrued Amount Payable $ XXX.XX

    Being the amount of insurance for the
    Period that has expired to balance date.
