Answer:

The answers of the both parts are well explained below:

Explanation:

Part A.

The double entry to record the prepaid insurance would be:

Dr Insurance Expense   $1750

Cr           Prepaid Insurance $1750

Both prepaid insurance is a current asset which means that not decreasing the current asset at December 31 would overstate it by $1,750 and increase the profit by the same amount because the expenses are understated by $1750. It will also affect the tax calculated for the year.

Part B.

The double entry to record the expense that have been accrued, will be:

Dr Fees Accrued $525

Cr      Fees Payable $525

Both the current liabilities and the expenses would be understated and would result in increase in the Profit which will increase the tax calculated.
