Premium for year ended 31 March 20X6 paid April 20X5 $10,800
Premium for year ending 31 March 20X7 paid April 20X6 $12,000
What figures should be included in the company’s financial statements for the year ended 30 June 20X6?
…SPL ……………SOFP
….$ ………………….$
A 11,100…. 9,000 prepayment (Dr)
B 11,700…. 9,000 prepayment (Dr)
C 11,100…. 9,000 accrual (Cr)
D 11,700…. 9,000 accrual (Cr)

Please help me on this one…I am able to do it till the point of obtaining the prepayment figure, but the SPL figure is troubling me.December 8, 2015 at 7:42 am #288866We need the expense from 1 July 20X5 to 30 June 20×6
From 1 July 20X5 to 31 March 20X6 is 9 months, so the expense = 9/12 x 10,800.
From 1 April to 30 June X6 is 3 months, so the expense = 3/12 x 12,000.Add the two together to get the total expense 🙂
