When paying rent in advance, the entry involves debiting the Rent Expense account and crediting the Cash account. This reflects that you are incurring an expense for the future period while reducing your cash balance. If you are recording it as a prepaid expense, you would debit the Prepaid Rent account instead of Rent Expense, and still credit Cash. This distinction depends on how you choose to recognize the expense in your accounting records.

Though I honestly never heard of a company paying a Salary in advance, the journal entry would be:Prepaid Salary (debit) $$$$Cash (credit) $$$$It would be like paying any other expense in advance, such as rent expense, insurance expense etc. You would debit a prepaid account for the amount while crediting your cash. Once the Salary is earned you would adjust the entry by Debiting Salary Expense and Crediting Prepaid Salary.
Once you find an apartment you like, try reaching out to the agent or the platform you found it on and politely ask if there’s any room to negotiate. Sites like Property Finder make it easy to filter for listings with price drops or ones that mention “negotiable rent”. Also, if you’re open to signing a longer lease, that can sometimes help you get a better deal.
