Answer:

b. Debit Salaries Expense $960 and credit Salaries Payable $960.

Explanation:

Salary expense per employee = $240 per day

Number of employees = 2

Salary expense for 2 days = Salary expense per employee * Number of employees * 2 = $240 * 2 * 2 = $960

Date   Account title           Debit     Credit

          Salaries expense     $960  

                  Salaries payable             $960

          (To record salaries expense for 2 days)
