Answer 1

Answer:

Paid $325 cash for salaries expense ⇒ Decrease asset (Cash); Decrease in Equity (Expenses)

Assets are reduced because the money used to pay for the salaries came from cash and cash is an asset. Assets will therefore be credited.

Equity also reduces because expenses come out operating income which is part of Equity. Equity will be debited as it is debited when it decreases.
