    1. Well it seems you are confused with the question, but you don't have to be,just like you said land, labor, capital plus entrepreneur are factors of production, wages and salaries are the rewards,but they are only for labor as a factor of production.
      The reward for capital is interest, land is rent,and entrepreneurship is profit. hope this clarifies the doubt, but I recommend you go through the topic again for further clarity.
