You can specify a tax accounting method for each entity. An example of each tax accounting method follows.

Gross Liability Method Example

This section describes the Gross Liability tax accounting method that you can select at the entity level.

Income withholding tax generates both a receivable and a payable amount. A receivable is created as the gross amount of the income less the amount of the reclaim, and a separate receivable is created for the reclaim amount, if any. A payable is also created for the unrecoverable tax amount (tax expense). Eagle Accounting relieves both the payable and receivable against cash on the Pay Date. The General ledger posting and calculations for Gross Liability follow.
