In this case, company wants to pass the journal entry for one year subscription of a magazine, it means the company has paid the payment in advance for the whole year. so its JV will be record as

Prepaid-Magazine Expenses A/C   Dr

Bank/cash A/C                                     CR

Then on the end of the every month ( may be quarterly) , the the expenses will be booked as 

Magazine Expenses   A/C                     Dr

Prepaid-Magazine Expenses A/C       Cr

The Journal entry for the subscription will be:

 

Prepaid subscription - Magazine                         Debit

        Subscription payable - Magazine                Credit

 

And will be transferred into expense account at the end of every month:

 

Subscription expense - Magazine                      Debit

         Prepaid subscription - Magazine               Credit

 

And when it will be paid:

 

Subscription payable - Magazine                      Debit

         Cash / Bank                                                 Credit

Journal entry depends on the business nature of the entity and the amount spent. Usually subscription for a magazine will be paid up in advance for a year "approximately -",. So, the journal entries are: 

1. JV is: Payment prepared:

Debit : Prepaid for magazine A/C XXXXXXX (BS - Asset Group)

Credit : Vendor A/C XXXXXXX (BS - Liability Group)

2. JV is: Cheque/Cash Issued:

Debit : Vendor A/C XXXXXXX (BS - Liability Group)

Credit : Cash/Bank A/C XXXXXXX (BS - Asset Group)

 

3. JV is: Subscription received (Monthly till the end of prepaid amount)

Debit : Subscription/Magazine Expense A/C XXX (P&L Expense side)

Credit : Prepaid for magazine A/C XXX (BS - Asset Group)

One way to enter the transaction is to debit the current asset Prepaid Subscriptions for the amount and to credit Cash. At the end of each month you would make an adjusting entry to debit Subscriptions Expense and to credit Prepaid Subscriptions.
