Answer 1

Answer:

The insurance expense on the annual income statement for the year ended December 31, 2019 will be D. $337.50

Explanation:

The company paid the $1,350 premium on a three-year insurance policy.

The insurance expense per year = $1,350/3 = $450

From April 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019, the company had bought the insurance for 9 months.

The insurance expense on the annual income statement for the year ended December 31, 2019 = $450/12x9 = $337.5
