    Debit Insurance Expense 440

    Credit Prepaid Insurace 440

    Explanation:

    Since on January 1, the company purchased a five year insurance policy for $2,200 that means we have to divide the insurance policy amount of $2,200 by the numbers of year which is 5 years.

    Hence:

    $2,200/5 years

    =440

    Therefore the adjusting entry at the end of the first year is:

    Debit Insurance Expense 440

    Credit Prepaid Insurace 440
