Hello, my QuickBooks online advanced students. The topic of this QuickBooks online lesson is entering and recording journal entries. You enter debits and credits in the “make journal entry” window. You can make rare transactions like purchasing assets by assuming a loan or paying a loan with a non-cash asset. The account balances in the chart of accounts will change without making a source document and it will not change any other area of QuickBooks online data like the customer or vendor records. I thank you all and hope that you will click “like” and “subscribe”

Just recently, I watched your Quickbooks online account videos to get some hints. Thank you so much all those explanations are very clear.

Hi sir, thank you for your explanation! If I get a loan for $100 000 my "Assets account " will increase up to $100 000 right? What about the "Iiablitie account" should I include the interest amount as well Or just a principle? Thank you in advance!
Sorry for the late reply, I'm having trouble getting my comments from RUclips in a timely manner Answer your question properly, when you first get the loan you only record the principal in the long-term liability account and the asset has nothing to do with it it only has to do with the amount that you owe at the moment that you first borrowed The interest only comes later as it happens over the life of the loan I'm here if you have any other questions and I could give you videos that help explain that and demonstrate that if you need just let me know Mark
Thank you and I'm happy to help but that is an accounting question not a quick book's question.. You have to ask your tax cpa or accounting person. If? You are choosing to make the closing costs and expense that you deduct or if your choosing to make the closing cost as part of the capital asset cost. Once you've decided which one that you're going to use,. Please contact me and I will tell you how to record the journal entry.. Mark.
Hi, I think you are awesome! I have a question. What do you mean by "owner buys an asset and assumes a loan for the asset" ? which way is the loan going? Who owes who and how is it entered? thanks and keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for the complement. Assuming a loan to buy an asset is like buying a car and signing the finance agreement with the dealership. You did not pay, you took the asset, the car, but did not pay. Instead, you assumed a loan;you agreed to pay the balance of the liability- car loan. Same thing like a mortgage. You own the asset, the house, but you did not pay, instead, you assumed a mortgage. So, you have the asset AND the liability at the same time becaause that;s how you got the asset without paying. Make sure you see all the videos in the advanced playlist that relates to journal entries. ruclips.net/video/SRjdmjd_i6w/видео.html I hope you will "like" and subscribe.

Hello I am creating a journal entry for the employee retention tax credit. My accountant says that I should credit the payroll tax account and debit operating cash. Should it be reversed? I should debit the payroll tax account and credit the operating cash account. Am I correct?

I started with a company who used QuickBooks and their books are a complete mess. Not only are ending balance wrong but several accounts have not been reconciled in a couple years. If I know the what the correct beginning balance should be, is there a way to just make a journal entry to bring certain accounts to zero and start fresh?

If I want to make a journal entry to record "Uncategorized/Other Income," it would be acceptable for the debit/credit balance to be off, correct? I can't imagine what I would put in the debit column.
If you received it, that means they paid you some cash or gave you a promise to pay or gave you some other asset if you earned income or receive income So one of those would go in the debit column it would either be your bank account or undeposited funds or accounts receivable or if they gave you a physical at that you would debit that particular asset
@@worldwidequickbooks The particular situation I'm trying to sort out is actually rewards points being used while purchasing inventory - I already recorded my COGs without considering the discount, so now I'm trying to decrease my inventory asset account in consideration that I paid that amount less for the items.

QuickBooks Dude - I have a question I can't seem to get answered. I work as a bookkeeper for a small non-profit. Everything is simple: cash in/cash out. My challenge is recording end of year credit card challenges that occur at the end of December (after the Dec CC statement cut-off date, usually around the 26th) and show up on the January CC bill. By definition, these are Payables for the current year, which are then paid in the new year. Please help me learn the proper method to record these.
Simply go through the january Statement for any transaction during the end of December and just record them with the actual date of teh transaction. This way, you are reconciled up until December 26th and you carefully entered any transaction between the 26th and Dec 1. So, your whole year is correct.

So when i pay contractors under payroll at the top i chose my checking account under account (which should i should have chosen contractor) then under pay from i chose my checking account again. How would i correct this mistake so that it balances my checking account properly.
