Entering payroll into the payroll module from a journal entry

Question

HI, I am rebuilding a year for a friend, and all she has is the print out of journal entries for the year and the bank statement. I am doing ok for everything but the payroll 
 I need to input in the payroll module, but with only the journal entries I can't get any paycheque to work. Everything works except I am stumped with what I am entering as the CPP Payable and EI Payable, as they calculate the EII Expense and CPP Expense. but can't figure out a formula that works. I know that the CPP is half of what is the Credit when posting in the payroll module, but how do I figure out what figure I need to multiply the EII by to get the correct figure. 
 EX - Debit Credit 
 5300 Wages 660.96 
 5310 EII Expense 17.40 
 5320 CPP Expense 26.05 
 1070 Chq account 573.19 
 2310EII Payable 29.83 
 2320 CPP Payable 52.10 
 2330 Income Tax Payable 49.29

What you are entering thru payroll module is the difference between the CPP expense and CPP payable and same with EI. 
 So in payroll module Wages is 660.96 less CPP of 26.05, EI of 12.43 and Inc Tax of 49.29 = net pay of 573.19..
