A)

wages expense 3,247 debit

      wages payable   3,247 credit

b) utilities expense 761 debit

     utilities payable          761 credit

c) interest expense 320 debit

     interest payable         320 credit

d) telephone expense 134 debit

     telephone payable        134 credit

Explanation:

a) we recognize the expense and we also need to disclosure the obligation to pay this expenses in the near future.

b) we must place the expense in the period it was generated, which is August.

c) principal x rate x time = interest

rate and tiem must be expressed atthe same metric

8% annual  --> 12 months

we need interest for 1 month so 0.08/12 = 0.0066667

48,000 x 0.08 / 12 = 320

d) same as b we adjust to a associate the expense with the period it occur.
