Certainly! To calculate the accrued salaries, you'll need to use the formula:

Accrued Salaries = Salary Expense * (Accrued Salary for the Month / Salary Expense)

Given that the accrued salary for the month is 280 and the salary expense is 560, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Accrued Salaries = 560 * (280 / 560)

Simplifying the expression inside the parentheses:

Accrued Salaries = 560 * 0.5

Calculating the product:

Accrued Salaries = 280

Therefore, the accrued salaries for appendix e of your assignment is 280.
