Answer:

(D) credit Salaries Expense for $15,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal entry to record adjusting entry of an expense is shown below:

Salary expense A/c Dr XXXXX

To Salary payable A/c XXXXX

(Being salary expense is adjusted)

And, the reversal entry would be

Salary payable A/c Dr $15,000

To Salary expense A/c $15,000

(Being reversal entry is passed)

The computation is shown below:

= $37,500 × 2 days ÷ 5 days

= $15,000
