Answer: $690

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2018 year- end adjusted balance of Salaries Payable will be calculated as:

= January 1, 2018 balance + Adjustment on December 31, 2018

= $0 + $690

= $690

Note: Salaries accrued at December 31, 2018 will be:

= (Number of days from December 29 - 31) × Salary per day

= 3 × $230

= $690

Therefore, the balance on salaries payable is $690
