Question

FTYZ Transport Inc. was supposed to pay wages amounting to $1,500 in March, which was the last month of its accounting period. However, Leeds Inc. failed to make the payment before the accounting period. What will be the adjusting journal entry passed by the accountant?

Answer 1

Answer: Wages account debit

Wages payable account credit

Explanation:

Sdjusting entries are simply referred to as the journal entries that are made when the accounting period ends such that there is allocation of the income and the expenditure incurred by the economic agent to the period in which the income and the expenditure occurred.

In this case, the adjusting journal entry passed by the accountant will be to debit the wages account by $1500 and then credit the wages payable account by $1500.
