Answer:

Debit income summary $40,800

Credit expense accounts $40,800

Explanation:

The correct closing entry for expense account would be to debit the income summary for $40,800 and then credit the expense accounts for $40,800.

Here, other items such as revenue, retained earnings and dividends would all be ignored because we were specifically asked to get the correct closing entry for expense account, hence; only expense value would be considered.
