Answer:

Debit Insurance expenses for $57

Credit Prepaid insurance for $57

Explanation:

From the Trial Balance, Prepaid Insurance is $75. Since on December 31, 2022, the insurance still unexpired amounted to $18, the insurance expenses for the year can therefore be calculated as follows:

Insurance expenses = $75 - $18 = $57

The adjusting entries will therefore be as follows:

Particulars                             Dr ($)                   Cr ($)    

Insurance expenses                57

Prepaid insurance                                               57

(To record insurance expenses for the year.)                

Note that the amount of $18 unexpired insurance will now be the Prepaid insurance that will appear as an asset under the Current Asset in the balance sheet, while the $57 insurance expenses will be charged as an expense in the income statement.
