Where can I find the payroll expense for 2021?

Let me share some information about payroll expenses, cccleans1.

 

The payroll expense is the total amount of the gross wages, plus the company-paid taxes and contributions. When you run the report, it'll not only show the amount paid to the employee but also includes the taxes and company contributions that the company is paying on behalf of the employee.

 

We can run the Payroll Summary report. This will display the totaled employee payroll wages, taxes, deductions, and contributions.

 

  1. Go to the Reports tab and search Payroll Summary.
  2. Click the Customize tab.
  3. Set the dates, then go to the Filter section.
  4. Hit Run Report.
