    a. Dr Unearned revenue (Liabilities - ) $800

    Cr Earned revenue (Stockholders' equity+) $800

    b. Dr Insurance expense (Stockholder's equity-) $50

    Cr Prepaid insurance (Asset-) $50

    c. Dr Depreciation (Stockholders' equity-) $400

    Cr Accumulated depreciation (Asset-) $400

    Explanation:

    The collection of $2,400 rent received in advance means that the following entries are passed in the first instance.

    Dr Cash (Asset+) $2,400

    Cr Unearned revenue (Liabilities+) $2,400

    The adjusting entries would have the following impact:

    $2400*1/3=$800

    Dr Unearned revenue (Liabilities - ) $800

    Cr Earned revenue (Stockholders' equity+) $800

    Secondly, the payment of two-year insurance would have the following entries on 1 October.

    Dr Prepaid Insurance (Asset+) $1200

    Cr Cash (Asset-) $1200

    The adjustment would have the following entries:

    $1200*1/24=$50

    Dr Insurance expense (Stockholder's equity-) $50

    Cr Prepaid insurance (Asset-) $50

    Lastly, the purchase of machine would be recorded as follows:

    Dr Machine (Asset+) $48,000

    Cr Cash (Asset-) $48,000

    The depreciation for one month is $400 ($4800*1/12), which would recorded thus:

    Dr Depreciation (Stockholders' equity-) $400

    Cr Accumulated depreciation (Asset-) $400

    Assets = Liabilities + Equity

    A. Unearned Revenue: 2400 = 1600 + 800

    B. Prepaid Insurance - 50 = No effect + - 50

    C. Machine Purchased No effect = No effect + No effect

    C. Depreciation - 400 = No effect + - 400

    Explanation:

    A. We collected cash $2400 for the rent of 3 months which means per month rent is $800. Since we earned $800 at Oct. 31, it will increase our Equity account by $800 and the remaining is unearned revenue which increases our Liability account by $1600.

    B. Paid $1,200 for two years which means per month insurance premium is 1200/24 = $50. The Assets initially has no effect on Oct. 1 because Prepaid Insurance increases and cash decreases and the assets remain same. But at the end of month, the 1 month Prepaid insurance expired consists of $50. The Equity account decreases by insurance expense $50.

    C. The purchased of Machine has no effect on accounting equation. However, the estimates annual depreciation is 4,800 and the per month depreciation is $400. Since the depreciation decreases the amount of Machine, the assets decreases by $400. And the Depreciation is an expense, so our Equity account also decreases by $400.
