    B. False

    Explanation:

    Beginning balance

    -Period of policy = expired 2 months

    -Period of unexpired insurance = 1 month (Out of 3 month, Insurance premium for period "Jan 1 to Feb 28" is expired)

    Amount in prepaid insurance insurance = $1800 * 1/3 = $600

    Current balance

    Period = "0" since period of coverage will start from 1 march

    Period of unexpired insurance = 12

    Amount in prepaid insurance = 4,100

    Thus, Total amount in prepaid insurance for the beginning and Current period = $600 + $4,100 = $4,700

    The amount in prepaid insurance is $4700, hence the balance as stipulated as Prepaid Insurance = $ 1,200 is false
