Accounting Question

I am preparing the quarterly financial statements for a small retail business based in Las Pias, Metro Manila, following Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS) for Small and Medium-sized Entities (SMEs). The company paid 120,000 in advance for a one-year office rental on January 1, 2026, and 24,000 for a six-month insurance policy on February 1, 2026.

I need clear guidance on:

– The initial journal entry to record each prepaid expense when payment is made

– How to calculate the monthly amortization amount for each item

– The adjusting journal entries required at the end of March 2026 (the end of the quarter)

– Where prepaid expenses are presented on the statement of financial position and how the amortized amounts are reflected in the statement of comprehensive income

– Whether there are any specific disclosure requirements for prepaid expenses under local regulations

I also want to confirm if the treatment differs for VAT-registered businesses, as this company is VAT-registered and the payments include 12% VAT.
