The journal entry is as follows

On Jan 31

Vacation pay expense Dr $8,900

        To vacation payable $8,900

(Being the vacation expense is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

= $8,900

For recording this transaction we debited the vacation expense as it increased the expenses while at the same time it also increased the liabilities so the vacation payable is credited
