Explanation:

The said query in SQL that retrieves the employee ID, name, monthly salary, daily salary, and annual salary from the 'employees' table and order the records based on the annual salary in ascending order.

The salary column is aliased as "Monthly_Salary", the salary column is divided by 30 is aliased as "Daily_Salary", and the salary column is multiplied by 12 is aliased as "Anual_Salary".

The results then arranged in ascending order on "Anual_Salary" column. This means that the employee with the lowest annual salary will come first.
