Explanation / Answer

prepaid rent balance on April 30 after adjusting for april rent expense is $12,000.

which means that remaining3 months rent is $12,000...(since out of 4 months originally paid, april's rent is already adjusted).

so monthly rent expense = $12,000 / 3 months

=>$4,000.

monthly rent expense = $4,000 per month.
