Payroll is the amount paid to employees for
services provided. Payrolls are important because--
1. Good employee relations demand that payrolls be calculated
accurately and paid as scheduled.
2. Payroll expenditures are subject to a variety of federal, state, and
local taxes.
3. Total payroll expense (gross payroll plus payroll taxes) has a major
impact on net income.
