Because it is the end of the calendar year, Tony Freedman knows that, in addition to recording the normal entries for December 2022 above, he will need to complete certain tasks that relate to payroll. Specifically, he will need to prepare T4 slips for his two employees, and then complete the T4 Summary for the year. He will do this in January 2023 to get the T4 slips to his employees and the T4 Summary to the Minister of Finance by the due date of February 28, 2023. Since these forms will be dealt with in January, they do not need to be filled in now.
