QBO project

Project

1

: Small Business Accounting using QuickBooks Online

I. Introduction:

Your good friend Kobe recently opened an art studio, Kobe’s Krafts. He has been creating and selling artwork for years, and subsequently already has a good customer base. In January of this year he started the process of setting up a business and he filed for an EIN in February. He found and rented a studio on March 1st, and has been cleaning, painting, and setting up the space ever since. The grand opening was April 1,

Here is a little

back

ground of what Kobe sells in his gallery. Kobe paints and sells his original artwork. He also sells prints, which are reproductions, of his original artwork that he purchases from a print shop. His prints and original artwork are considered his inventory. He also accepts custom orders from customers, which are considered commissioned sales. Commissioned artwork is artwork that is created for a particular person based on their specification. He also has a few artist friends that he agreed to let display and sell their original artwork on consignment. That means the paintings that are not his own, are not considered inventory for Kobe, they are inventory for the artist that created the painting. However, when a consignment artwork is sold, he keeps a percentage of the sale as consignment income.

He knows you are going to school for your master’s degree in accounting and has asked for your help setting up and using QuickBooks Online (QBO). You agree to help set up his QBO business account and complete the first month of transactions. You are not familiar with QBO, but you know it will be beneficial to your accounting career to learn it since QBO is the most widely used accounting platform for small business in the United States, so you agree.

Kobe has is interested in using the following QBO features:

·

Sales Receipts/Invoices

· Read the Rubric before beginning the project

· Read the Competencies Assessed before beginning the project

· Do not track Classes

· Do not track Locations

· The beginning balance in the Equity account is

$0

because the business was just opened.

· Submit the Project deliverables on or before the due date.

1. Review the Late Policy in advance of the due date

· Ask your supervisor (professor) questions as needed.

Inventory Hints and Tips:

· When first setting up the inventory account, Associate each inventory item with the correct Sales account.

· The Inventory account includes two types of inventory:

· Original artwork created by Kobe

· Prints of Kobe’s original artwork

· When inputting the print inventory items, record the costs incurred to make the prints

Non-Inventory Hints and Tips:

· Kobe’s commissioned (custom) artwork does not pass through the inventory account because these paintings are from custom orders.

· Kobe’s Krafts also sells artwork created by other artists. The items belong to the other artists and therefore do not pass through the inventory account of Kobe Krafts.

Chart of Accounts:

· Do not create account numbers for the accounts

Appendix C: Overview of Sales Tax

NOTE: Sales Tax must be set up in the “TAXES” area in QBO. Proceed with this section carefully. QBO is very user friendly for the most part; however, there are areas that are hard to fix should you set it up incorrectly and Sales Tax is one of those areas so do not rush here. Read all the way through this appendix, watch the how to videos and then proceed with caution.

Kobe’s new art studio is located in Panama City Florida. He is required to pay 7% in sales tax to the State of Florida. Of that 7% state tax, the state of Florida disburses 1% to Bay County.

The State of Florida requires most taxpayers to file monthly sales tax returns, Kobe’s Krafts falls into this category. As of April 1st, Kobe’s Krafts must start collecting taxes and the first return is due no later than May 20th (QBO knows when it is due) for the reporting period of April 1 – April 30.

Kobe’s Krafts needs to make sure he charges customers and remits sales tax for everything he sells except for the group art classes. Florida does not collect taxes on the sale of services.

Address: 2150 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd
Panama City, FL 32405

Go to the “TAXES” area and set up sales tax for the state of Florida. If you entered the business address when you were setting up the account, QBO should suggest the correct tax agency(s). If not, it should ask you for an address here. Make sure you select Florida Department of Revenue from the dropdown list. Again, make sure you find the taxing agency in the dropdown list to select. Do NOT manually add any taxing body. QBO already has all the information it needs to correctly tax products and it will automatically update taxes should laws change but only if it is set up correctly from the beginning.

back

Appendix D: Overview of Inventory

The setup of Inventory will be done in the “INVOICING/SALES” area of QBO. Once in SALES, go to the Products and Services tab.

Then click “New” in the upper, right corner. Next click “Inventory” and fill in the name, category, and:

· Fill in the name of the first inventory item.

· Select the category. The first time you will have to add a new category.

· You will be adding these categories: Kobe’s Originals, Prints, and Non-inventory items

· The “initial quantity on hand” will be the owner contributed inventory, see the table below.

· As of date will be 4/1/2019.

· Do not enter a quantity in the “Reorder Point” field for any items.

· The Inventory asset account is “Inventory asset”

· Do not use product codes aka SKU numbers.

· For all items that have a fixed sales price associated with it, enter the Sales price for each item

· Also, make sure you associate the correct Income Account with the correct product.

· i.e. All sales of original artwork should be recorded to Income account: Art Sales: Original Artwork Sales

· Enter the costs to have the prints made.

· Remember, all sales are taxable EXCEPT FOR Group Art Classes.

· Be sure to select “Taxable Standard” under “Sales tax category” for all sales other than group art classes, which will be “Nontaxable.”

Kobe’s Krafts primarily sells 3 types of original artwork and prints – Large, Medium, and Small.

Sales of Kobe’s original artwork should set the product Income account to: Art Sales: Original Artwork Sales.

Cost:

Kobe was instructed years ago by his tax accountant that his original artwork inventory should not have a COGS associated with it. Instead he needs to expense all of his art supplies purchases. However, the prints in inventory are classified as inventory until sold and then those costs will be classified as COGS. So, although the original artwork inventory will have zero costs associated with it, you will be able to enter the sales price of the inventory Kobe transfers in to the business.

Cost and Pricing of Prints:

He transfers all his print inventory (reproductions of original artwork) to the business April 1st, as follows:

Size of Prints

QTY

Cost per Unit

Sales Price per Unit

24 x 36 Print

$80

$210

11 x 14 Print

50

$25

$75

5 x 7 Print

110

$4.50

$12

All of the prints in the table above should have the following setting:

1. Income account to: Art Sales: Print Sales

2. Expense account to: Print Expense, which is a COGS account

In addition to original artwork and prints, Kobe has several non-inventory items that you need to add.

Gain on sale of PP&E

For all commission artwork, Kobe’s Krafts requires a 50% deposit at time of order and the balance when the buyer picks up the artwork.

* Remember, this is the only non-taxable item.

** Kobe also displays and sells consignment pieces. He earns a 25% commission on each piece sold. The consignee sets the price, so Kobe keeps those records on an Excel spreadsheet and does not enter the prices in QBO until he sells the pieces. In other words, the consignment inventory is not an inventory item, but you need to set up a product item to handle the transaction. However, make note of all consignment sales because in order to complete the sales transaction, you need to make a journal entry (JE) to move 75% of the sale from the P&L to the balance sheet as Consignments Payable.

*** Sales of PP&E will also require a JE to remove the item from the balance sheet and reduce the gain (or increase the loss) on the sale. The transaction is not complete until this JE is made.

Appendix H: April Transactions

Make sure you pay all bills through the EXPENSES area and receive all invoice payments in the SALES area.

Make sure you pay the sales tax through the TAXES area. If your sales taxes due for the period of April is different than the transaction amount below, there is a problem with your sales tax somewhere along the way.

All receipts that were not invoice payments will require a Sales Receipt. You will create Sales Receipts in the SALES area. All sales should be considered cash sales. Just make sure the dates are correct and the account the money is deposited to is Kobe’s bank account.

Unless Kobe does recurring business with a customer, or it is a special sale, all Sales receipt transactions will be from customer “Customers.”

Write checks for all expenses that are not bill payments. However, if there is no check number associated with the transaction, that means it is a debit card transaction so change the check number to EFT in place of the check number.

Small inexpensive purchases, under $500, should be expensed. Make sure you select the appropriate account for each transaction. Do not add any more accounts as you enter these transactions. Think macro instead of micro. For example, paying for a PO Box or purchasing small, inexpensive items, such as a lamp, should be considered an Office Expense.

QBO is limited in what you can record in a single transaction. This is where journal entries (JEs) will be necessary. Hint: transactions where JEs will be necessary include sale of fixed assets and sale of consignment artwork. I suggest you make the JEs as you go to complete the transactions.

*Note, this transaction is instructing you to code an expense item to an income account. However, in the original transaction, the entire sales was added to consignment income. This check is taking out the consignee’s portion of the consignment sale income. The amount that will remain in the Consignment Income account will be Kobe 25% of the sale. There are many different ways to properly record the revenue and this is one of them. You could also create a J/E to move 75% of the consignment sale to a payable account at the time of sale and then record the check against that payable. Following these instructions just skips the J/E step but the end result is the same.

Note, make sure the basis for the financial statement is in the correct basis for your comparison. The best practice is to review in both basis to ensure you do not have errors in the statements.

Other than the accounts listed above, make sure you scan and make sure all balances make sense. For example, the only negative numbers in the financials should be the Owner Distributions and Discounts given.

You may notice a balance in the Opening Balance Equity account (QBO “junk” account). QBO made this entry against the owner contributed inventory when you created the product inventory. If there is a balance, you need to create a J/E to move the balance from Opening Balance Equity to Owner Contribution: Debit: Opening Balance Equity to Credit: Owner Investment.

If your fixed asset account is incorrect, another J/E will be required is to remove the art display PP&E that was sold from the books because it hasn’t been done yet: Debit: Gain on Sale of PPE and Credit: Art Displays.
