a) Net income is overstated

Explanation:

As we already know that

To record the accrued wages, the journal entry is  

Wages expense

    To wages payable

(Being the wages expense is recorded)

This entry indicates the increases in expenses and decrease in net income but if this entry is not made or forgot to make than the condition would be reverse i.e expenses understated and net income overstated. On the other side, the liabilities are overstated i.e liabilities understated in case the entry is not made
