Small Collectibles Business
My wife has started a small biasness, selling her collection of postcards, etc. on the web.
Question - what entries do I need to make for the sale of an item in the journal (I am using MS Small Business Accounting Software).
For example, she sells a postcard from her personal collection for $100 dollars.
Does she first need to contribute the postcard to inventory, and then record the sale? Is tis owner's equity, or inventory?
Once the sale occurs, what basis should she used (she has no record of purchase date or price).
Thank you in advance for your help.
