Prepaid rent is monetary item, booked to the debit of the balance sheet account as an asset and expensed to the P&L through a monthly booking by crediting the balance sheet and debiting the P&L rent account ( recognising expense). It is important to prepare a schedule showing how you expense the prepayment till you get a zero balance at the end of period covered by the prepayment, that is when you must have charged the total amount to the P&L account. It is not good accounting practice to charge the total amount of prepaid rent to P&L account in one period. Cheers Ndimuh Cosmas
Debit Cash for the cash received, and credit a liability account you can call Prepaid Rent or Prepaid Deposits. Basically, you credit a liability account because you "owe" them the rent for the month they have paid for in advance. Once the month has passed, you can debit the Prepaid Rent and credit Rental Income. Or, if the prepaid rent is a deposit made, you just keep it on your books as a liability until the end of their lease, at which time they will either be refunded the deposit (debit Prepaid Rent, credit Cash) or if they don't pay their last month's rent you can use the deposit (debit Prepaid Rent, credit Rental Income).

Prepaid rent is an asset and represents and advance payment for a future benefit Rent expense is an expense and is the expended portion of the rent consumed.
Rent expense is considered an overhead cost, not a cost of sales since it does not directly relate to the merchandise you are selling. Any prepaid rent (such as at the beginning of the month) should receive a journal entry debit to an account called prepaid rent, and at the end of the month should be credited to rent expense.
