Answer:

                                              30-Nov                 31-Dec

                                       debit      credit        debit      credit

supplies                       $2,000                    $3,500

prepaid Insurance      $8,000                    $6,000

salaries payable                           $11,000                  $16,000

unearned revenue                       $3,000                    $1,500

1. Purchases of supplies in December total $4,500.

Dr Supplies expense 3,000

    Cr Supplies 3,000

beginning balance = $2,000 + $4,500 = $6,500

supplies expense = $6,500 - ending balance

2. No insurance payments are made in December.

Dr Insurance expense 2,000

    Cr Prepaid insurance 2,000

Insurance expense = November 30's balance - December 31's balance

3. $11,000 is paid to employees during December for November salaries.

Dr Salaries expense 16,000

    Cr Salaries payable 16,000

The beginning balance of salaries payable = $11,000, then it was paid (balance = $0), so any ending balance represents wages expense.

4. On November 1, a tenant pays Golden Eagle $4,500 in advance rent for the period November through January.

Dr Unearned revenue 1,500

    Cr Rental revenue 1,500

Monthly rent revenue = $4,500 / 3 = $1,500

unearned revenue balance Nov. 30 = $3,000

unearned revenue balance Dec. 31 = $1,500

rental revenue = Nov. 30's balance - Dec. 31's balance
