Contingent Liability• Report a contingent liability in the notes to
the financial statement if it is reasonably possible that a loss or expense will occur.
• The FASB says to record an actual liability if it is probable that the business has suffered a loss and its amount can be reasonably estimated.
21
Contingent vs. Current Liability
• Suppose a hospital has lost a court case for uninsured malpractice.
• The hospital estimates that the liability will fall between $1.5 and $2.5 million.
22
Contingent vs. Current Liability
• The hospital must record a loss and a liability of $1.5 million.
• The hospital must disclose in a note the possibility of an additional $1.0 million loss.
23
Objective 3
Compute Payroll Amounts.
24
Payroll• Straight time is the base rate paid to
employees for a set number of hours.• Overtime is additional time worked by
employees for which they received a higher rate (usually 1.5 times the straight time rate).
25
Gross Pay and Net Pay
Gross Pay Deductions Net Pay
26
FICA Tax

(6.2% applied to the first $87,000 of employee earnings in a year)
2 Health insurance (1.45% applied to all employee earnings)
27
Employer Payroll Taxes• Social Security (FICA) tax• State unemployment compensation tax• Federal unemployment compensation tax
28
Unemployment Compensation Taxes
• Employers paid 5.4% to the states and 0.8% to the federal government on the first $7,000 of each employee’s annual earnings.

gross salary of all employees.• Employees pay their own income and
FICA taxes as well as union dues.• The employer serves as a collecting agent
and sends these amounts to the government and union.

Objective 5
Use a Payroll System.
36
Payroll System Components– payroll record– special payroll bank account– payroll checks– earnings record for each employee
37
Payroll Record...– is also referred to as the payroll journal.• It lists payroll data for each employee.• It serves as a check register.• It provides information for recording payroll
expenses and related withholdings.
38
Payroll Bank Account• When companies use a payroll bank
account, the company draws a check for the net amount of salary payable to employees on its regular bank account.
• The company deposits this check in the special payroll bank account.
39
Payroll Bank Account• The company writes paychecks to
employees out of the payroll account.• When the paychecks clear the bank, the
payroll account has a zero balance.• Disbursing paychecks from a separate
bank account isolates net pay for analysis and control.
40
Recording Cash Disbursements
• When the employer pays the employees, the company debits Salary Payable to Employees and credits Cash.
• The liabilities to the government, unions, and other parties is also debited when cash is paid.
41
Recording Cash Disbursements
• Assume the following journal entry was made at the end of an accounting period:
Salary Expense 180,000Employee Income Tax Payable 45,000FICA Tax Payable 11,160Employee Union Dues Payable 840Salary Payable to Employees 123,000
42
Recording Cash Disbursements
• What is the journal entry when the employer pays these liabilities?
Employee Income Tax Payable 45,000FICA Tax Payable 11,160Employee Union Dues Payable 840Salary Payable to Employees 123,000
Cash 180,000
43
Internal Control over Payrolls– controls for efficiency– controls for safeguarding payroll
disbursements
44
Controls for Efficiency– making payroll disbursements from one
payroll account in one month and from another the next
– following established policies for hiring and firing employees
– complying with government regulations– testing employees for their interest in the
job and their skills to perform the job
45
Controls for SafeguardingPayroll Disbursements
• Large organizations must establish controls to ensure that payroll disbursements are made only to legitimate employees.
• Duties of hiring and firing should be separated from the duties of accounting for payroll and distributing paychecks.
46
Controls for SafeguardingPayroll Disbursements
• Requiring an identification badge bearing an employee’s photograph also helps internal control.
• A formal time-keeping system helps ensure that employees have actually worked.
47
Objective 6

balance sheet.– Current liabilities of known amount
(payroll)– Current liabilities that must be estimated
(warranties)
