    I have an asset account for IC advance... Doe this JE sound right?

    When an advance is given D advance C cash.

    When IC returns with expense report using the advance amount as a beginning balance I write a check from operating account to the IC debiting the correct expenses and if there is a balance I credit the advance account to show the advance lowered.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Since we are not using telephones it might be easier if you didn't communicate in SMS

    The relieving Journal is credit advance, debit expense, credit cash for difference if reimbursement is necessary, otherwise credit advance debit expense

    I received an early retirement offer in April 5, 2012 and I accepted the offer April 25, 2012. No terms or conditions. I was asked to stay on until a replacement for my position was found and that I assist in training this replacement, (verbal agreement). This I did and completed the week of Nov. 19, 2012. On Nov. 22, 2012, I received an e-mail stating the early retirement offer was a preliminary one and the amount of the pay out is reduced by 25%. From the date that I accepted the offer until the e-mail concerning the reduction I was in discussions with the president of our company and on each occasion, (about once monthly), he confirmed that the offer was good but they needed to verify the legal aspects and they were also looking out for my best interests from a taxation standpoint.I want the initial offer. What do I do?

    Customer is invoiced for $500, but asked for a 10% discount which he received. The $450 customer payment was applied to his account. So far, the invoice is a $500 credit and the $450 payment is a debit. My question: how is the discounted $50 handled in Quick Books?

    Thank you

    I have been asked to provide a service to residents in a nursing home. The nursing home is going to pay me by cheque as a sub contractor, therefore, no taxes are added to the invoice. My business is just starting and I will basically earn $1500 every other month. In Canada I understand you can make up to $30,000 before you pay HST. The money that I make is added as "other income" on my personal income tax return. My question is, to perform this service, I need someone to go and get the residents and bring them to the clinic. The nursing home is not going to pay her, they are only paying me. Can I pay her as a sub contractor to me and deduct the amount that I give her from the amount that the nursing home gives me before putting it on my income return as "other income"

    I'm working on calculating car fringe benefits for year end W-2. I've seen multiple options to choose from. I'm confused on which to use.
