    c. $18,000

    Explanation:

    The liability policy costs $2,000 per month ($36,000 / 18)

    And the crop damage policy costs $500 per month ($12,000 / 24)

    The total pre paid insurance is = $36,000 + $12,000 = $48,000

    By December, 12 months have passed, therefore, the total insurance expense is:

    $2,000 x 12 = $24,000 for the liablity policy

    $500 * 12 = $600 for the crop damage policy

    Bringing the total to = $24,000 + $6,000 = $30,000

    We now substract this quantity from the initial amount to obtain the balance:

    Balance of prepaid insurance December 2018 = $48,000 - $30,000

    = $18,000
