important point is the correct reflection of the wages in the accounts, so you need to make correct accounting entries on wages.It is worth noting that the staff of the company is divided into workers and employees - managers and specialists.This should be considered in order to make the correct wiring of salary.

To account for the salary and other benefits (sick leave, vacation, financial assistance, etc.) uses a synthetic account 70. In the account of the credit calculation includes all employees and take into account the deduction of debit (personal income tax, child support, etc.etc.), and very directly the issue of wages.

  • in the debit account 20 gets salary of workers of the main shops.For each type of manufactured products may open a sub-account.
  • 23 debit accounts reflect the salary of employees of subsidiary industries.For example, a wiring accrue wage workers repair shop, if available in the enterprise.

  • 28 Charged to reflect the salary of those employees who are engaged in rework.
  • 29 Charged to put the costs service units.This wiring is done, if the entity has a dining room, a kindergarten, a health resort for workers, etc.Then wages of people working in these departments should reflect just that.
  • in the debit account 44 gets salary of workers responsible for the marketing of products.Such wiring accrued salary sales managers at presence at the company's own retail outlets, the salary of employees of the store, as well as employees of commercial enterprises.

If the employee should be assessed temporary disability benefits, or any other payment due to the FSS, it is debited by 69.

also in correspondence with the debit account 70 suchbills as 84 or 86. These wires are indicated accrual financial assistance and a variety of benefits, including the income from the shares available to employees of the enterprise (Am 84 account), accrual of payments from the trust funds (Am 86 accounts).

the existing legislation provides for the creation of a reserve for the payment of, for example, rewards for seniority or vacation (so in cases where the employee's vacation falls into two or more accounting periods).Then first the appropriate accounts debited the account of expenses and credit put through 96. Subsequently, the amount of such charges are debited from the debit account 96 credit 70.
