Explanation:

1.

The supplies difference between supplies at start of the month and at end of the month is the amount of supplies expense.

The supplies expense will be debited and the supplies account will be credited.

Supplies expense = 3200 - 1000 = 2200

2.

The insurance policy is for 2 years which is 24 months. The monthly expense for insurance is 4800 / 24  = 200 per month.

The Insurance expense will be debited by 200 and prepaid insurance will be credited.

3.

The depreciation of 3000 is for the whole year. The monthly expense is 3000/12 = 250 per month.

Depreciation expense will be debited and accumulated depreciation will be credited.

4.

The rent is unearned at the start of the month for the amount of 1200. At the end some of the rent has been earned and unearned rent is 500.

The rent earned for the month is = 1200 - 500 = $700

Unearned rent revenue will be debited by this amount and rent revenue will be credited.
