Payroll Accruals TxEIS Payroll Accruals Region XVIII Information Systems

I. Accrue = Accumulate Why do we accrue? 1. From the TEA Accounting Guide: “Expenditures should be recorded and reported in the period in which they are incurred. Therefore, unpaid salaries and related benefits that have been earned but not yet paid should be recorded as accrued expenditures” (liabilities). 2. The process of accruing salaries enables a school district to accurately reflect expenses after each payday. 3. Enables the district to maintain earned but unpaid salary amounts in School YTD for each employee. 4. All businesses and city and state governments accrue pay earned in one fiscal year and not paid until the next fiscal year. 5. Accruing enables districts to fully expense salaries paid out of federal funds by June.

II. Calculation Formulas: Standard Pay Rate = Contract Amount ÷ 12 Daily Rate = Contract Amount ÷ Number of Days in Contract Monthly Amount Expensed = Daily Rate X Number of Days Worked Monthly Amount Accrued = Monthly Amount Expensed – Standard Pay Rate -or- Monthly Amount Accrued= Number of Days Worked X (Contract Amount ÷ Number of Days in Contract) – (Contract Amount ÷ 12)
