The journal entry for salary paid to an employee typically involves debiting the Salary Expense account and crediting the Cash or Bank account. For example, if an employee is paid $3,000, the entry would be: Debit: Salary Expense $3,000 Credit: Cash/Bank $3,000 This reflects the expense incurred for employee compensation and the reduction of cash or bank balance.
