Title: Non-Cash wages in payroll

It would be great if DBA payroll could do non-cash wages, rather than having to calculate by hand & then edit W-2's.

Last year was our first year on DBA P/R and W-2's. We were working through a lot of problems, like only part of the year being DBA etc. So I'm a little fuzzy on how I actually accomplished the whole task. My notes will be better this year!

I think the way I handled Non-Cash wages was through payroll. In this case they were for automobile usage. The auto usage is increased by the amount of the taxes to be paid (mandatory stuff only: medicare, ss, city tax, 401K) I estimate those amounts and keep adjusting the pay to get it right. If there are a few cents left over, just put them in federal tax or state tax. If you need to record them in fringe benefits, setup a pay category that posts to fringes.

To get close to the gross wage amount, add up the % of the deductions, subtract from 100%, divide the result into the non-cash benefit.

The wage amounts are adjusted properly. The only downside was that I had to manually type on the W-2 in block 14 "AUTO ALL" and the amount. I did not have to go in and adjust the other parts of the W-2.
