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.
We 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 🙂
