Who it is for
Small employers, solo owners with a few employees or contractors, and bookkeepers who keep the compliance calendar.
Why it is different
- Due dates roll past weekends and holidays using a list you control.
- State rates and wage bases are your inputs, never guesses.
- A filled example and a blank copy with working formulas.
What is inside
- Setup. Federal rates and wage bases (with sources), your states, and a holiday list.
- Employees. Gross-to-net per person and the employer cost: Social Security, Medicare, FUTA, state withholding and unemployment.
- Calendar. Estimated tax, deposits, Forms 941 and 940, W-2 and 1099-NEC dates, rolled to the next business day, with status.
- Cash Flow. Month-by-month cash after payroll, deposits and estimated payments, with a short-cash flag.
