 I have Quickbooks Pro 2006 Mac. I run a small videography business
where I am the owner and only employee. I want to set up a Payroll for
myself for tax purposes yet. The only thing I can find on payrolls
however is a monthly fee based service. I really don't want to pay
$42.99 a month so I can write myself a check twice a month for tax
purposes (federal and state). Am I missing something or is this the
only solution for payroll?

A friend has Quickbooks Pro 2006 (Windows) and purchased their Payroll
software for $60 for the first year and $99 each year after. I can
justify that cost but not $42.99 a month. Did they change how they do
their Payroll software?

Quickbooks offers payroll subscriptions that work from inside QB for
Windows. QB for Mac doesn't have such a luxury, you have to use a
third-party payroll program.

I'd recommend using Excel (or whatever spreadsheet app you may be
using) and do your payroll manually. Then just create a journal entry
to put your payroll info into QB.

Have you discussed your desire to put yourself on payroll with your accountant?

He's the one that recommended it.

I don't know who you bank with but Bank of America offers complete
payroll to its business checking customers. Two employees, not doing
direct deposit, would cost $10 per month. This is according to their
website, I haven't personally tried it.

You really need to talk to your accountant about this. There are some special
regs on this.
