$92,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Coolwear incorporation has a balance in its prepaid insurance account of $48,400

In 2018, $86,000 was paid for insurance

At the end of 2018, the balance was $42,000 after adjusting entries were recorded

Therefore the insurance expense for 2018 can be calculated as follows

= $48,400 + $86,000-$42,000

= $134,400-$42,000

= $92,400

Hence the insurance expense for 2018 is $92,400
