Explanation:

1. Prepaid insurance paid for 2 years (24 months). Insurance expense should be recorded for 6 months [Aug.1 to Dec.31 of current year]
2. On Nov.1, Debited to 'Rent revenue account' Instead of Debit to 'Unearned rent revenue' account. Hence rent revenue for the month of January transferred to 'Unearned rent revenue' account.
3. Debited 'Advertising expense' account instead of 'Debit to 'Advertising materials'. Hence balance of materials at the end of the year transferred to 'Adverting materials' account.
4. Recorded accrued expense
