note, is the interest and is accounted for as such.
2. a. Employee’s federal income taxes, social security, and Medicare
b. Employees Federal Income Tax Payable, Social Security Tax Payable, and Medicare Tax
Payable
3. The deductions from employees’ earnings are for amounts owed (liabilities) to others for
such items as federal taxes, state and local income taxes, and contributions to pension plans.

2. c
3. c
4. b
5. b
5. An advantage of using a separate payroll bank account is that reconciling the bank statements
is simplified. In addition, a payroll bank account establishes control over payroll checks
and, thus, prevents their theft or misuse.
6. a. Constants are data that remain unchanged from payroll to payroll. These include employee
names, social security numbers, marital status, number of income tax withholding
allowances, rates of pay, tax rates, and withholding tables.
b. Variables are data that change from payroll to payroll. These include number of hours or
days worked for each employee, accrued days of sick leave, vacation credits, total earnings
to date, and total taxes withheld.
7. The vacation pay expense should be recorded during the period in which the vacation privilege
is earned.
8. In a defined contribution plan, the company invests contributions on behalf of the employee
during the employee’s working years. Normally, the employee and employer contribute to the
plan. The employee’s pension depends on the total contributions and the investment returns
earned on those contributions.
9. To match revenues and expenses properly, the liability to cover product warranties should be
recorded in the period during which the sale of the product is recorded.
10. When the defective product is repaired, the repair costs would be recorded by debiting
Product Warranty Payable and crediting Cash, Supplies, or another appropriate account.
