    Calculation of amount of prepaid insurance and insurance expense shown on the year 2 financial statements;

    It is given that on June 1 of year 1 the company paid $1,800 cash for an insurance policy for one year.

    Hence the insurance expense for the first year shall be calculated for 7 months (June to December) = 1800*7/12 = $1050. The balance in the prepaid instance as on December 31 of the first year shall be (1800-1050) = $750

    In the second year the insurance expense shall be $750 and at the end of the second year, the balance in the prepaid insurance shall be nil.
