What should you review if you entered the wrong amount for the Social Security tax?

Reviewing the Payroll Register is essential when you've entered the wrong amount for the Social Security tax. The Payroll Register provides a comprehensive record of all payroll transactions, including employee earnings and deductions. By examining this document, you can verify the specific amounts recorded for each employee and identify any discrepancies in the Social Security tax entries.

The Payroll Register allows you to cross-check the tax amounts against the correct figures and ensures that any adjustments made are accurate. This is critical for maintaining compliance with federal tax regulations as well as ensuring correct deductions for employees’ benefits.

The other options, such as Employee Updates, Net Cash Reports, and Exceptions Report, serve different purposes. Employee Updates focus on changes to employee records, Net Cash Reports summarize cash flow impacts, and the Exceptions Report highlights discrepancies or unusual entries in payroll data. However, for directly addressing incorrect tax amounts, the Payroll Register is the most relevant document to review.
