Solution

The correct option is B

TV - Asset
Salary - Expense
Electricity - Expense


TV is an asset because:
a. It is owned by Paul
b. It will give future benefits by entertaining the visitors/customers.
c. It can be expressed in terms of money.

Salary and Electricity are expenses because these are the costs incurred by Paul in the process of earning revenue.
