![Tunacliff Mowers allows each employee to earn 15 fully paid vacation days each year. Unused vacation time can be carried over to the
next year; if not taken during the next year, it is lost. By the end of 20X5, all but 3 of the 30 employees had taken their earned vacation
time; these 3 carried over to 20X6 a total of 20 vacation days. These 20 days represented total 20X5 salary of $6,300. During 20X6,
each of these three used their 20X5 vacation carryover; none of them had received a pay rate change from 20X5 to the time they
used their carryover. Total cash wages paid: 20X5, $735,000; 20X6, $810,000.
Required:
1. Give the entries for Tunacliff related to vacations during 20X5 and 20X6. Disregard payroll taxes. (If no entry is required for a
transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
