    The adjusting entry required on December 31 is:

    Debit Insurance Expense = $2,400 and credit Prepaid Insurance = $2,400.

    this is how we calculate this;

    Amount paid = $4,800

    For months of insurance = 4

    from 1st November to 31st December 2 months passed, So;

    $4,800 x 2/4 = $4,800 / 2 = $2,400.
