The first account to be used is prepaid insurance. This is a current asset which specifies the price of the insurance contract or also known as premiums that have been paid in advance. It signifies the amount that has been paid but has not yet expired as of the balance sheet date.

The second account to be used is cash because it was used to pay for the insurance bought.

To record this transaction:

Debit, Prepaid Insurance $2500

Credit, Cash $2500
