Question

A company pays its employees $4,250 each Friday, which amounts to $850 per day for the five-day workweek that begins on Monday. If the monthly accounting period ends on Thursday and the employees worked through Thursday, the amount of salaries earned but unpaid at the end of the accounting period is:

Answer 1

$3,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of five day workweek, accounting period ends on Thursday which indicates that employees work only for 4 days. Therefore, salaries are earned only for 4 working days and unpaid at the end of the accounting period

Salaries earned but unpaid= 4 working days * $850 per day = $3,400

Hence, salaries earned but unpaid at the end of the account period is $3,400
