Analyzing and Journalizing the Payroll
• When a business has more than a couple employees, it typically handles it’s payroll from a separate payroll account.– A check is written from the general account and deposited into the payroll
account– The amount transferred is equal to the total net pay for the pay period
• Salaries Expense is debited the amount of Gross Pay and Cash (the amount of net pay) and payroll liability accounts are credited
• Deductions are liabilities to the company (money owed to someone else). They are stored in separate accounts until paid to the proper place– Employees’ Federal Income Tax Payable– Social Security Tax Payable– Medicare Tax Payable– Hospital Insurance Premium Payable– U.S. Savings Bonds Payable– Etc.

The percent is multiplied by the total gross income amount.

first $7,000 of annual earnings per employee– State Unemployment Taxes are usually about .8%
• Federal Tax Rate – deduction of 5.4% max of state rate• (6.2% - 5.4% = .8%) (state rate – maximum deductible
amount)Pg 347
