Answer:

S/n   General Journal              Debit        Credit

1.       Insurance Expense   $5,750

         {(23,000/12) * 3}

                Prepaid Insurance                     $5,750

2.      Interest Receivable     $735

        (21,000 * 7% * 6/12)

                  Interest Revenue                      $735    

3.      Depreciation Expense     $14,200

               Accumulated Dep.                       $14,200

Effect on Net Income

Net Income would be lower by:

==> ($5,750 - $735 + $14,200)

==> $19,215
