Accounting for unpaid annual invoice

    Hopefully this will be a straight forward one.

    I am looking for the journal entries on this post, as it is the first time I have crossed this.

    We have insurance that we have received running from November -October
    The invoice was received in 2018, but not paid until February 2019

    So currently I have

    2018
    dr 12 months of expense (when there should be 2)
    cr 12 months of payables (when there should be 2)?

    2019 I have
    dr payable (12 months)
    cr bank (12 months)

    what is the correct journal to get 10 months of the expense into 2019?

    Thanks so much

    Cr Insurance 10 months at Y/E & Dr Prepayments - 10 months

    Then reverse that Journal AFTER the year end in the new years accounts

    Dr Insurance 10 months & Cr Prepayments which will clear the prepayments account out and leave the 10 months in the new years accounts for insurance


    That should do it.
