If a monthly insurance premium is remitted to a company by the state government, the initial deductions from employees are recorded in?

If a monthly insurance premium is remitted to a company by the state government, the initial deductions from employees are recorded in an Agency Fund. An Agency Fund is a fund established to account for assets held by a government in a purely custodial capacity for other governments, private organizations, or individuals. It is used to record assets that are received by one entity on behalf of another, with no intention of adding to or reducing the assets of the recipient entity. In this case, the state government is acting as an agent for the employees by deducting the insurance premium from their pay and remitting it to the insurance company on their behalf. Therefore, the deductions are recorded in an agency fund until they are remitted to the insurance company.
