The journal entries are shown below:

1. Prepaid insurance A/c Dr $2,625

To Insurance expense $2,625

(Being the insurance is transferred to prepaid insurance)

The computation is shown below:

= $2,700 - $2,700 * 1 months : 36 months

= $2,700 - $75

= $2,625

2. Service revenue A/c Dr $1,200

To Unearned Service revenue $1,200

(Being the unearned service revenue is recorded)

The computation is

= $1,800 * 2 months : 3 months

= $1,200

3. Income Tax Expense A/c $3,900

To Income Tax Payable A/c $3,900

(Being the income tax expense is recorded)

The computation is

= $10,000 * 39%

= $3,900
