Yes, that is correct. The physical count of $300 of supplies on hand and the $100 of the unearned revenue that is still unearned at month-end should be considered in the trial balance. The accrued salaries should be taken into account as well, which would be the $280 difference between the Salaries Expense and Salaries Payable balances on the trial balance.
