Payroll Accounting 2024 34th Edition by Bernard J. Bieg/Judith A. Toland/Bridget Stomberg
Quick Navigation

Overview

Introduce your students to the concepts and skills needed to understand and calculate payroll, complete payroll taxes and prepare payroll records and reports with market-leading Bieg/Stomberg's PAYROLL ACCOUNTING 2024, 34th ed. Students gain hands-on experience in all aspects of payroll accounting as they examine and apply today's latest payroll accounting laws and developments both manually and using Excel. Timely topics prepare students for success with the Fundamental Payroll Certification (FPC) from the American Payroll Association. This edition highlights application rather than theory, with meaningful hands-on practice that reinforces the most current and important payroll concepts. The latest examples and real business applications emphasize relevance, while an extensive payroll project lets students practice their skills. Excel® spreadsheet templates, author videos and the optional CengageNOWv2 help you clarify the latest payroll laws and practices for student success.
