Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the correct accounting entries for car insurance premiums paid. It confirms that the initial entry correctly debits insurance expense and prepaid insurance, with the prepaid portion carrying forward as an asset. Subsequent monthly adjustments are then made to recognise the insurance expense for the period, reducing the prepaid insurance balance.

You pass entry as follows

Insurance Expense A/c Dr 2451
prepaid Insurance Exp A/c Dr 74529
To Bank A/c. Cr 76980
( Being insurance exp paid )

on 31/3/2021 your Debit of prepaid Insurance balance will be carried forward next F.Y.

Next year pass following adjustment entry monthly portion up to March 22

Insurance Expense. A/c Dr
To prepaid Insurance Exp A/c Cr
( Being Insurance Exp adjusted paid last year )

prepaid Insurance A/c will be under Asset side Balance sheet
