Worksite Employee Related Assets and Liabilities
WORKSITE EMPLOYEE RELATED ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
WSE related assets and WSE related liabilities are intended to be reviewed together when considering the financial position of the Company. Our clients direct the price and service specifications for payroll and payroll taxes and as a result, we are not the primary obligor for payroll and payroll tax payments and therefore record these amounts net in our statements of income and comprehensive income. However, we record without offset, accrued wages and payroll tax liabilities for WSEs in WSE related liabilities with the related payroll funds collected and unbilled revenues in WSE related assets. We have classified these assets and liabilities and other service related amounts collectively as WSE related, to present a clearer picture of the inter-relationship of the balances and distinguish these from our other corporate assets and liabilities.
In addition to unbilled revenues, accrued wages and payroll tax liabilities, other significant balances included in the WSE related assets and liabilities include:
Payroll funds collected, which represents cash collected from clients in advance to fund payroll and payroll taxes, and other payroll related liabilities;
Other payroll assets, which primarily include payroll tax receivables;
Client deposits, which represents indemnity guarantee payments received from clients and collections from clients in excess of payroll and other payroll related liabilities;
Other payroll withholdings, which primarily includes withholdings under 401(k) plans and flexible benefit plans.
