Since insurance is for 12 months there fore insurance from 01.04.18 to 30.09.18 will be prepaid insurance.
= 170x6/12= 85.

Charge insurance i.e. 430(600-170) + 85 = 515 to Profit and loss account.
yes,this is the suggested answer,but i took the whole 170 as prepaid insurance.
Do we assume that the insurance is for 12 months??
what made you to this conclusion from the question??
since genral insurance is always for 12 month, therefore i had taken 12 months
ok. Thanks
good clarification and information
