Please can i get some advice regarding a refund i have received.
This has arrived into the business bank i work for and it is refund from HMRC PAYE. How would i post this Sage Line 50???????
The story goes that an employee was paid a refund from HMRC in which the company paid the refund in his salary then we reclaimed it back from HMRC??????
Our payroll is done by an external payroll company, in which the payslips and summary is sent back to me. One of the employees received on this particular pay date quite a healthy refund which we struggled to pay but did manage so. When i contacted HMRC they advised that any company facing hardship and with a large refund to pay can claim back the amount from HMRC which i did.
But now i come to reconcile the bank statement i really don't know how to post this onto Sage
The bank payment needs to go to 2210... i think you need to give me the exact journal you posted for the week/month in which the refund was applied to the wage - presumably on this week/month, the refund wiped out any liability?
below are amounts from August which are related to the refund. Hope this helps
Nominal Code Journal Dr Cr 7000 Gross Pay £58,085.38 7006 Employers NI £3,126.96 7007 Employers Pension £297.21 2210 Income Tax £4,443.40 2210 Ees/Ers Nat Ins £5,948.47 2245 Ees/Ers Pension £534.96 2220 Net Pay £50,567.72 7007 Pension £15.00
Presumably the £4443.40 is reduced by the tax refund already? It will appear as a minus figure on that person's line on your report, along with all the other positive figures for other employees??
Usually, the tax refund reduces the tax to pay over to HMRC, for the other employees... Your "credit" to 2210 for the tax figure suggest other employees have had tax deducted as normal, and that this would have been reduced by the negative figure for the employee in question? If that's not the case, please explain
