>Employee salaries and benefits (costs generally) not employee taxes.
Can you sign elaborate because I'm generally curious. I run a business and and my portion of employment taxes, and all of salary including their taxes, are discounted before corporate profit and taxes are calculated.
If this were not the case, I would be paying taxes while my bottom line is negative
I was thinking of the taxes that the employees pay. You're of course correct that employee costs--including salary, benefits, and the portion of their employment tax that the business pays are tax deductible business expenses.
