Answer:

June 30 Dr. Cr.

Salary Expense $14,800

Salary Payable $14,800

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Weekly Salary Expense = $37,000

Number of working days in week = 5 days

Salary expense per day = $37,000 / 5

Salary expense per day = $7,400

As 3 days lie in July and year end is June 30

Number of days Accrued = 5 - 3 = 2 days

Salary Expense Accrued = 2 x $7,400

Salary Expense Accrued = $14,800
