Answer:

Explanation:

The computation of expense amount is shown below:

=  Expenses - adjusted prepaid expense + adjusted accrued expense

= $35,200 - $500 -  $450

=  $34,250

The adjusted prepaid expense is computed by

= Ending balance of prepaid expense - beginning balance of prepaid expense

= $1,800 - $1,300

= Ending balance of accrued expense - beginning balance of accrued expense
