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. Hope this helps.

Deferred rent payable is the sum of the difference between a monthly rent payment and the monthly rent expense of an operating lease that contains escalated payments in future periods. The rent expense is the sum of all rent payments over the term of the lease divided by the number of periods contained in the lease otherwise known as straight-line amortization. This rent expense amount can/may differ from the monthly rent payments. The difference is deferred rent payable.
Step rent is where you take the rental expense over the life of the leased asset and you amortize on a straight line basis. For example, if you are paying 10,000 a year for 20 years and then the rent goes up to 20,000 for another 20 years, then with straightlining that expense your rent expense would be 15,000 (600,000 total rent/480 months (12 months * 40 years). You incur additional expense the first 20 years and then the next 20 years you have the offset. After 40 years the expense is the same.
