Solution
Pay Roll Accounting is the subsystem that deals with payment of wages and salary to employees.
This subsystem handles all aspects related to employee compensation including:
- Calculation of gross wages/salaries based on attendance, working hours, or piece rates
- Deductions like Provident Fund (PF), Employee State Insurance (ESI), Tax Deducted at Source (TDS), professional tax
- Computation of net salary (Gross salary - Deductions)
- Recording of salary payments in books of accounts
- Maintenance of employee records and salary registers
The other options deal with different areas:
Fixed Assets Accounting → Records and manages long-term assets like land, buildings, plant and machinery
Purchase and Accounts Payable → Handles purchase of goods/services and payments to suppliers/creditors
Inventory → Manages stock of goods including raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods
Since the question specifically mentions "wages and salary to employees", Payroll Accounting is the dedicated subsystem for this function.
