13 Accounting for Payroll Employees are typically not paid as they work. Employees are typically paid periodically, after accumulating a quantity of work. Any time employees have worked, but not yet been paid, there is a liability that must be recorded. When employees are paid, they do not receive the gross pay that they have earned. Employers withhold amounts that are due to other parties and the employee only receives what is “left over,” the net amount. Copyright ©2014 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Prentice Hall11-13

FUTURE PRESENTHow do we disclose a liability that might arise in the FUTURE as a result of something that has occurred in the PRESENT?

31 Contingent Liabilities The type of disclosure of a contingent liability depends on two issues:The type of disclosure of a contingent liability depends on two issues: 1.How likely is the future event? 2.Can the amount of the liability be reasonably estimated?
