B) Computation for the amounts of any liability for compensated absences that should be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, 2019, and 2020

1. December 31, 2019

10 employees * $11.83/hr. * 8 hrs./day * 11 days =$10,410

2. December 31, 2020

10 employees * $11.83/hr. * 8 hrs./day * 1 day =$946

Add: 10 employees * $12.76/hr. * 8 hrs./day * 11 days = 11,229

Total $12,175

($11,229+$946)

Therefore the amounts of any liability for compensated absences that should be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, 2019 will be $10,410 and 2020 will be $12,175
