Tax Liability report shows the employee's gross pay, taxable (adjusted) gross, the amount of tax withheld, and the total tax liability for a specified type of payroll deduction: FICA, FUTA, MEDICARE, and so on. The report lets you see at a glance your payroll tax liabilities; this information can help you fill out employment tax forms and make federal tax deposits.
Note: This report uses payroll formulas to calculate the amounts. You must subscribe to a Sage Business Care plan in order to use payroll formulas to run this report. Otherwise, the report will not show any data. You may run this report for any years in which you had a subscription to a Sage 50 Payroll Solution even if you are not currently subscribed.
