College Coasters is a San Antonio-based merchandiser specializing in logo-adorned drink coasters. The company reported the following balances in its unadjusted trial balance at December 1, 2012.

The inventory on December 1, 2012, consisted of 1,000 coasters, all of which were purchased in a batch on July 10 at a unit cost of $0.50. College Coasters records its inventory using perpetual inventory accounts and the FIFO cost flow method.
During December 2012, the company entered into the following transactions. Some of these transactions are explained in greater detail below.
Ocher relevant information includes the following:
a. College Coasters has not yet recorded $200 of selling expenses incurred in December on account.

c. Wages for the period from December 23-31 are $100 and will be paid on January 15, 2013.
d. The $600 of Prepaid Rent relates to a six-month period ending on May 31, 2013.

Required:
1. Analyze the accounting equation effects of each transaction and any adjustments required at month-end.
2. Prepare journal entries to record each transaction and any adjustments required at month-end.
3. Summarize the journal entries in T-accounts. Be sure to include the balances on December 1, 2012, as beginning account balances.
