Answer:

Correct answer is:

Debit Salaries Expense $840

Credit Salaries Payable $840

Explanation:

2 employees each paid at $ 210 per day so daily salary expense is $210*2 = $420.

The accounting period ends on Tuesday and both employees work for Monday and Tuesday so the 2 days salaries expense is $420*2= $840.

As the salaries are paid on every Friday so there is a liability on a company for the 2 days salary payable to be recorded on accounting period close date i.e Tuesday.

Answer:

Debit Salaries Expense $840

Credit Salaries Payable $840

Explanation:

The are two office employees so 2*210=$420

To record the month-end salaries of 2 employees which is due but not paid = 420*2 = $840
