Current Liabilites:

Short-Term Notes Payable -

2016: $16,800 2015: $15,200

Salaries Payable -

2016: $3,100 2015: $3,900

During 2016, O'Hern paid off both current liabilities that were left over from 2015, borrowed money on short-term notes payable, and accrued salaries expense. Journalize all four of these transactions for O'Hern during 2016. Assume no interest on short-term notes payable of $15,200.

1. Journalize the payoff of the short-term notes payable from 2015

2. Journalize the payment of the salaries payable from 2015.
