Answer: The correct answer is A). Net income is overstated.

Explanation: Net income is equal to Income less expenses. When an accrued expense is not recognised it results in an understated expense which in turn leads to an overstated net income.

Wages payable is a liability. An omission of such a liability means that wages expenses is also omitted.
