                                                       Debit                   Credit

Vacation pay expense A/C          $39,500

(Being vacation pay accrued for periods)

b. Provide the journal entry for the pension benefit.

9% of employee salaries and the salaries were $750,000

=> The pension plan requires a contribution to the plan administrator:  $750,000*9% = $67,500

                                                        Debit                   Credit

Pension expense                          $750,000

To cash A/C                                                                   $67,500
