03 November 2011 When salaries are paid to the employees, employer deducts the employee's share of provident fund from salary and net salary (after PF) is paid to the employee.

Employer's own contribution as well as deducted amount from employees salary are deposited for a specified period with the proper authority.

When salary is paid, the following entry is passed:-

(Assume salary is Rs. 5000 , deduction from employee's salary Rs. 500, & employer contributes equal amount)

Salary Ac --------------------------------5000Debit
Provident Fund (liablity Ac)-------------- 500Credit (Will be reflected in each individual employee's salary on credit side)
Bank / Cash ------------------------------ 4500Credit

Employer's contribution's entry will be

Salary Ac ---------------------------------500Debit
Provident Fund ( Liablity Ac)--------------500Credit
