Answer:

debit to Rent Expense for $171

Step-by-step explanation:

The adjusting entry would be

Rent Expense $171

To Rent expenses payable $171

(Being Rent expense accounted is recorded)

Here the rent expense is debited as it increased the assets and credited the rent expense payable as it also increased the liabilities

Therefore the a option is correct

ANd, the rest of the options would be wrong
