Editor's Note
This is National Payroll Week, so that can only mean one thing:
I need a milk shake! I have to go to the dentist this week and
it is a tradition in my family to top off a trip to the dentist
with a milk shake, and (I'm stretching here to find a
connection, bear with me) since National Payroll Week
represents a tradition of sorts, there should be some sort of
commemoration of the event, so why not a milk shake? Or not.
In any case, when we accountants think of National Payroll
Week, we think of adjusting our W-4 before the end of the year
to maximize our take-home pay and minimize our tax refunds. Or
we think about who we know who is lucky enough to climb over
the ever-higher Social Security ceiling. Or we think of all the
work that's ahead of us in January. That's almost as nice as a
milk shake.

Questions & Advice |
Tenant Improvement Credit/Allowance
Our landlord gave us a Tenant Improvement allowance in the form
of a credit not cash. Should this be included in my Deferred
Rent schedule or should that be booked as a separate entry?

Deferred Expenses
A reader would like to get some clarity as to when to classify
a transaction as "Deferred" vs. "Prepaid." For example, when do
you use "Deferred Rent" vs. "Prepaid Rent?"
