I am using TT business software and when I report the payroll figures on the form, the software changes the amount showing to include the taxes the business paid. Which is fine I guess. But then right below that entry, it ask how much payroll taxes were paid. When I put that number in (which is the difference between the actual payroll (sum of checks paid to employees) and the taxes the business paid in the above entry), it causes my Income statement to be out of balance by that specific amount. If I do not report the payroll taxes in the form where it ask and leave it blank, of course it balances??? Should I assume the software is auto populating the entry and therefore I do not have to report it again where it ask to entry payroll taxes paid by employer? Just seems wrong??? Can anyone help here???
thanks, Scott
