    Debit Salaries payable $31,000; credit Cash $31,000

    Explanation:

    As we know that

    The journal entry to record the payment is

    Salary payable $31,000

    To Cash $31,000

    (being the cash is paid)

    For accrual of salary we debited the salaries expense and credited the salary payable as it increased the both expenses and liabilities account

    But since we have to pass the journal entry on Jan 3 so we pass the journal entry which is shown above
