Though I honestly never heard of a company paying a Salary in advance, the journal entry would be:Prepaid Salary (debit) $$$$Cash (credit) $$$$It would be like paying any other expense in advance, such as rent expense, insurance expense etc. You would debit a prepaid account for the amount while crediting your cash. Once the Salary is earned you would adjust the entry by Debiting Salary Expense and Crediting Prepaid Salary.

wages is expense and expense is debit salary is income and income is credit
[Debit] Salary expense [Credit] Cash / bank

[Debit] Salary Expense xxxx [Credit] Salary payable xxxx
While it's a credit to your account, it's a debit to the Salary & Remuneration account of your Employer.
