Answer:

income summary 143,100 debit

    salaries expense    143,100 credit

Explanation:

The company will do an adjusting entry to reocrd the expense for the accrued but not payed salaries of the year:

salaries expense 3,100 debit

   salaries payables 3,100 credit

Thus, the total slaries expense for the year would be:

140,000 + 3,100 = 143,100

To close we will leave the expenses balance at zero thus, we will credit this amount against an auxiliary account called income summary.
