Answer 1

DrSalaries Expense $960

Cr Salaries Payable $960

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given we were told that the Company pays each of its two office employees each Friday at the rate of $240 per day which means that if the employees worked on both Monday and Tuesday, the month-end adjusting Journal entry to record the salaries earned but unpaid is:

Dr Salaries Expense $960

Cr Salaries Payable $960

Using this formula to Calculate the amount

Amount = Rate per day * Number of days * Number of employees

Let plug in the formula

Amount= $240 * 2 * 2 employees

Amount= $960
