    c. Insurance expense would be debited for $300.

    Explanation:

    Provided that

    12 month insurance policy purchased on Dec 1 = $3,600

    So, the adjusting entry on Dec 31 would be

    Insurance expense A/c Dr $300

    To Prepaid Insurance $300

    (Being insurance expense is recorded)

    The computation is

    = $3,600 : 12 months

    = 300

    As we have to compute for 1 month so we recorded $300 insurance expense
