    Given that,

    Total prepaid insurance = $6,700

    Monthly insurance:

    = Total prepaid insurance : 4 months

    = $6,700 : 4 months

    = $1,675

    Insurance expense for two months:

    = $6,700 - $1,675

    = $5,025

    Therefore, the adjusting entry required on December 31 is as follows:

    Insurance expense A/c Dr. $5,025

    To Prepaid insurance $5,025

    (To record the adjusting entry for the insurance)
