The total premium for each policy was paid in full at the purchase date, and the Prepaid Insurance account was debited for the full cost. Appropriate adjusting entries have been made to November 30, 2019.

c. The company has 15 employees who earn a total of $4,800 in salaries for every working day. They are paid each Wednesday for their work in the five-day workweek ending on the preceding Friday. All 15 employees worked November 23 to 27 inclusive. They will be paid salaries for five full days on Wednesday, December 2, 2020.

d. The company purchased a building on July 1, 2020. The building cost $306,000 and is expected to have a $25,000 residual value at the end of its predicted 30-year life.

e. Because the company is not large enough to occupy the entire building, it arranged to rent some space to a tenant at $3,100 per month, starting on October 1, 2020. The rent was paid on time on October 1, and the amount received was credited to the Rent Revenue account. However, the tenant has not paid the November rent. The company has worked out an agreement with the tenant, who has promised to pay both November?s and December?s rent in full on December 15.

f. On October 1, the company also rented space to another tenant for $3,650 per month. The tenant paid five months? rent in advance on that date. The payment was recorded with a credit to the Unearned Rent account.
