On january 1, 2013, craig company paid the premium on a four-year insurance policy in the amount of $12,000. at that time, the full amount paid was recorded as prepaid insurance. after recording the correct adjusting entry for the insurance policy on december 31, 2015, craig company's records would reflect what balance in the prepaid insurance account?
a. $6,000
b. $9,000
c. $3,000
d. $4,000
e. $0

option (C) $3,000

Explanation:

Data provided:

Policy duration = 4 years

Policy amount = $12,000

Date on which premium is paid = January 1, 2013

Date on which entry is adjusted = December 31, 2015

Now,

The time passed between January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2015 = 3 years

Therefore,

Amount to be recognized as insurance exp. on December 31, 2015

=

=

= $9,000

Thus,

The balance in the prepaid insurance account = $12,000 - $9,000 = $3,000

Hence,

The correct answer is option (C) $3,000

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
