In Question, it is given that expenditures of a "COMPANY".

Note:
COMPANY gives salary to its employees.
In real life COMPANY doesn't take a salary, it only takes a profit.
People ask employees "How much salary does the company give?"
People ask "How much is the Companies turnover?"
Have you ever heard people asking "How much salary does the company earn?"

So, thinking "Salary is one of the expenditures of a company" makes sense right?
