Re: Reporting employer tax expenses

Thanks, John. That's what I thought I was going to have to do but was hoping for some sort of workaround. Not that big of a deal but we're going to end up with a much bigger chart of accounts than one would expect.

Re: Reporting employer tax expenses

What I'm looking for is a way to report those things together within the Income and Expense report so that the session has a concise and accurate view of how much each employee actually costs for a period and how that compares to the budget.

Re: Reporting employer tax expenses

I should have been more clear about the report I meant. I'd like each individual employee's total payroll expense, including the employer share of p/r taxes, reported separately on the Income and Expense Report. I'd like to see this: Office manager .. Salary .. Insurance .. Retirement .. Payroll tax...

Re: Reporting employer tax expenses

Neil, thanks. We've got the items set up properly to report the employer portion of payroll taxes in total. The problem is that if I want to report employee's total expenses this way: Office manager .. Salary .. Insurance .. Retirement .. Payroll taxes .... Total Office Manager Secretary .. Salary ....

Reporting employer tax expenses

It doesn't seem like there is a way to report the employer portion of SSI and Medicare separately for each employee by using a single pay item. We currently report all of the cost for an individual employee, including the employer portions of payroll taxes within that employee's catagory. Am I corre...

Re: "Close to" terminology

The version they're (We're) using is 11. I went back and reviewed the donor restriction and restricted contributions topics in the manual and I think that helped clear up my confusion over those issues. Yeah, I've heard the "We've always done it that way" but I think we'll be able to move ahead with...

Re: "Close to" terminology

Thanks. I think I see part of our problem. 1.)The system was set up with a single fund "01 - General Fund". Everything lives there. 2.)There is a single equity account "01-3001-000 - Fund Balance". 3.) There are 52 separate restricted funds which each have their own asset, income, and expense accoun...

"Close to" terminology

I'm having trouble getting my head around fund accounting as my experience has been commercial for-profit accounting. When the term "closes to" is used in PowerChurch, it seems that they mean what I would understand as "nets to for reporting purposes", as the two accounts being closed to a single eq...
