    Balance of prepaid insurance: $2,475

    Explanation:

    On April 1, Teneit, Inc shall record the following journal entry in its accounts in respect of insurance premium paid for three years.

    Debit Credit

    Prepaid Insurance $3,300

    Cash $3,300

    At December 31, the following adjusting journal entry shall be recorded in the accounts of Tenity, Inc. in respect of insurance premium expense

    Debit Credit

    Insurance expense $825

    (3,300*9/36)

    Prepaid Insurance $825

    So based on above two journal entries, the following shall be the balance of the prepaid insurance as at December 31:

    Balance of prepaid insurance: $2,475

    (3,300-825)
