b. The cost of expired insurance for the fiscal year is $10,600.
c. Annual depreciation on equipment is $7,000.
d. The April utilities expense of $800 is not included in the unadjusted trial balance because the bill arrived after the trial balance was prepared. The $800 amount owed needs to be recorded.
