    Cash paid to employees is $425,000

    Explanation:

    Account payable is an account which contains the balance of accrued wages that is payable to employee. Employees are paid through this account because expense has already been incurred.

    Closing value of salaries payable = opening balance of salaries payable + Salaries expense for the year - cash paid to employees

    Closing value of salaries payable - opening balance of salaries payable = Salaries expense for the year - cash paid to employees

    Decrease in the account balance is the difference of opening balance and closing balance of account payable

    -11,000 = $414,000 - cash paid to employees

    Cash paid to employees = $414,000 + $11,000

    Cash paid to employees = $425,000
