An Introduction to Payroll Accounting   Course Description   Copyright Ross Maynard 2021   Course Description Welcome to an Introduction to Payroll Accounting.   This course provides an overview of payroll accounting. It is aimed at accountants and business managers and owners new to payroll accounting and looking for straightforward coverage of the key elements and features of payroll. In this course we will cover the core elements of payroll; how gross pay is calculated; and issues when dealing with tips and benefits in kind. We’ll also look at tax-exempt deductions and the statutory deductions from pay. We’ll review the main elements of payroll taxation and social security contributions including the terminology used in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. And we’ll cover the calculation of Net Pay – that is the amount that the employee actually receives in their bank account. Finally we’ll explore the main journal entries required in the accounts. The principles and structure of payroll accounting are common across many jurisdictions, and the learning in this course applies in many countries of the world. For this reason, the course does not go into the detail of any country-specific legislation or regulations, and does not cover the particular tax rates, tax bands or deduction rates that apply in different jurisdictions. This course provides a grounding in the principles and structure of payroll accounting whatever your country of operation. I hope you enjoy it.     Key Learning Points  On completion of the course, delegates will be able to: Describe the main components of payroll including allowances, taxes and deductions. Explain the terms Gross Pay, Taxable Pay and Net Pay Identify the statutory taxes and deductions applicable in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom Complete the main Journal Entries required to process payroll Describe the elements recorded in a Payroll Register     Curriculum Lesson 1: First Principles in Payroll Accounting Lesson 2: Getting to Gross Pay Lesson 3: Allowances and Deductions Lesson 4: Income Taxes and Social Security Contributions Lesson 5: The Calculation of Net Pay Lesson 6: Specific Payroll Terminology for the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom Lesson 7: Payroll Journal Entries Lesson 8: Final Thoughts on Payroll Accounting Appendix: The Payroll Register     Pre-Course Requirements There are no pre-course requirements     Additional Resources None     Course Tutor Your tutor is Ross Maynard.

RESILIA™ Foundation: In-House Training AXELOS RESILIA™: Cyber Resilience Best Practice is designed to help commercial and government organizations around the world prevent, detect, and correct any impact cyber attacks will have on the information required to do business. Adding RESILIA to the existing AXELOS global best practice portfolio, including ITIL® and PRINCE2®, brings a common cyber resilience best practice for security, IT service management, and business. Active cyber resilience is achieved through people, process, and technology. The RESILIA™ Foundation course starts with the purpose, key terms, the distinction between resilience and security, and the benefits of implementing cyber resilience. It introduces risk management and the key activities needed to address risks and opportunities. Further, it explains the relevance of common management standards and best practice frameworks to achieve cyber resilience. Subsequently, it identifies the cyber resilience processes, the associated control objectives, interactions, and activities that should be aligned with corresponding ITSM activities. In the final part of the course, it describes the segregation of duties and dual controls related to cyber resilience roles and responsibilities.
