    a $300

    b $3,300

    c $750

    d $17,250

    Explanation:

    The computation is shown below:

    a. Insurance expense for march month:

    = Total insurance expense : total number of months in a year

    = $3,600 : 12 months

    = $300

    b. Prepaid insurance

    = Total insurance expense - march insurance expense

    = $3,600 - $300

    = $3,300

    c. Rent expense for equipment for April month

    = Total rent cost : total number of months in two year

    = $18,000 : 24 months

    = $750

    d. Prepaid rent expense

    = Total rent cost - April rent expense

    = $18,000 - $750

    = $17,250
