Prepaid rent is the asset of compan as it is paid already but not due yet so it is current asset and shown in current assets under balance sheet.
asset
balance sheet as a current liability until it's earned, when you transfer the amount earned to revenue.
Prepaid Rent is a Current-Asset account. Since it deals with "prepaid" it will expire on a regular basis and is not a "fixed" asset. Each month (or whatever terms the rent may be paid) the amount is removed from Prepaid-Rent and placed in Rent Expense.
A Long-Term Asset is one in which the benefits of that asset extend beyond the course of a year. The benefits of prepaid rent are typically more immediate, and therefore Prepaid Rent is classified as a Current Asset.
NO! Prepaid expenses are assets!!
asset liability

Yes
Rent paid is typically considered an expense rather than an asset or liability. When rent is paid, it reduces the cash account (an asset) and is recorded as an expense on the income statement, reflecting the cost of using the rented space during that period. However, if rent is paid in advance, it may be classified as a prepaid expense, which is considered a current asset until the rental period occurs.
Prepaid rent is that amount which is paid in advance but benefit of which is not yet taken by business so it is current asset of business and like all current assets it is also shown under asset side of balance sheet and not in income statement.
Prepaid rent is a rent paid in advance so it is current asset and it will have debit balance as normal balance.
Prepaid rent is considered a debit. When a business pays rent in advance, it records the payment as an asset on its balance sheet, reflecting the right to occupy the property in the future. As time passes and the rent is used up, the prepaid rent is then expensed, reducing the asset and increasing rent expense.
