Employers' responsibilities for payroll do not include Recording the employee federal income tax withholding as a debit to the federal income tax expense account.

Explanation:

The employer has to file a 941 tax return quarterly. It's used to report employees' withholding, employees'  FICA tax deduction, medicare tax deduction, FICA expense, and medicare expense.

The employer files a 940 once a year. It is the federal unemployment tax return.  The employer shows each employee's earnings on the quarterly state unemployment tax return.

The employer payroll expenses include the employer's matching portion of the FICA and medicare tax. The other items are liabilities, not expenses.

Thus,  Employers' responsibilities for payroll do not include recording an expense for the employee Federal Income Tax withholding.
