Answer / max
salary is mostly being paid to employees working in the
public sector.Their pays are often received on a monthly
basis but their payment is fixed. So no matter how many
hours you work you will receive the same payment periodlly.
Wages are mainly paid to employees in the private sector.
These are private companies not state owned. Their payment
are received fortnightly on a regular basis. If they work
overtime, eventually they will receive more than their
actual payment. Also in the private sector they use
remunerations such as compensation bonuses rewards and
others.

Wages are generally paid per hour. This means that you have
to be present and working in order to get paid. Most of the
time, wage jobs are not as inclusive when it comes to
things like paid vacations, or paid sick days. Wage earners
often have to give up pay for leaving early, coming in
late, missing a day, or taking a vacation. It is Direct
Expense and comes in Trading A/c.
Salary refers to how much you get paid every year. Salary
earners rarely have to punch a time clock, or keep an
accurate account of their hours, because they get paid for
performance rather than by the hour. Salaried workers are
much more likely to have paid sick days and paid vacations,
and are not docked pay for being late or leaving early from
time to time. It is Indirect Expense and shows in Profit &
Loss A/c.
