Chart of Accounts Basics in Quickbooks Online

[@hilaryjl1]

You explain everything so clearly, thank you! Your videos are extremely helpful to me.

[@bridgetthompson3284]

Thank you so much! I am sitting here in TEARS because i have years of company files that are WRONG! I have to start over with quickbooks online!

[@melissarankin2201]

I appreciate the way you explain everything. I am very new to QBO and trying to set up my Chart of Accounts. I understand the value of doing it right from the get-go. Thanks for your help.

[@hadassahcaicedo1008]

😯 I'm alive now, you are my professor really and thank you 😊 I'm a new small business owner that you are training now I hope to get it as good as you 🙏 I appreciate it

Huge help. The part regarding confusing COA line items spot on. COA detail but no more than you need.

[@helalahmed7428]

Your Explain is very easy to understand!

[@user-tv2mb9vn2r]

you are brilliant and I do believe you help so many people out there with their jobs - Million thanks because you also explain perfectly

[@HectorGarciaCPA]

Thanks

[@zengyunhartman9559]

This video is very helpful to me. It's clear and easy to understand. In 2019, I studied the Quickbooks online, and obtained the certificate. However, there was no video in the previous studying. I learned various forms and operations were carried out in the textbook. This time I am learning QuickBooks, the QuickBooks company provided many videos and detailed explanations and guidance. It deepened my understanding of QuickBooks. And I'm very interested in QuickBooks. Thank you.

Could you please make a video explaining how to record taxes paid on purchases. Let's say the company bought a vehicle and taxes were paid on the cost, how do you record the portion part of the taxes paid in QuickBooks online. Thank you in advance.

[@kristenturvey468]

My only issue is the fact my husband is trying to help me in Quickbooks while he is also working on the estimates for clients. So I'm needing his help to figure out what ones to delete because I'm not sure. Your videos help so many people! We're getting Quickbooks re-setup from years ago and trying to get things back to normal.

Good

Hi Hector. I am an avid fan but may you please show us a video about 1099 forms ? how to prepare them when can we access them using our QB Payroll Pros and Cons if we use QB to prepare 1099 anything that you know about 1099 would really help us a lot.

I'm just starting a single-member LLC for items that I make. I wanted to convert to an actual business to help expand my reach and be able to sell at like farmers markets, etc. But now I keep hearing you need a lawyer, you need an accountant, etc. At that point to me it's no longer a small business. That or the fact spending that much money it's out of reach for my small business. My main point is I want the chart of accounts, and QuickBooks setup properly to begin with. But how can I get that done at a reasonable price?

[@dianeweckesser4912]

Thanks for the info Hector. You explain things very well. I'm a new user to QBO. I'm a treasurer to a small church and want to use it for our church. I tried last year but just was overwhelmed so I just did the year manually - automating portions in excel for reporting - and to get a handle on how the church worked it's finances (retired programmer not finance!). So now I'm ready to try and use QBO - could I talk to you regarding CoA's or have you briefly review what I did last year and have you look at it for set up purposes? Would love to get your thoughts. Diane

[@noormotani9719]

Your videos are hardly audible. That’s why I am always reluctant to watch your videos.

[@samuelfullman]

Hector, second video of yours I've watched. Also subscribed. Thanks! Question: suppose I start a company and purchase a house with a 300K loan - I have a liability on day one of 300k to the lender - I have an asset also of 300k in the house Now, forgetting everything else (like payments and money I make), over time the house's perceived value climbs to 600k (an easy to remember number) I would like to make an entry of 300k somewhere to show actual appreciation What kind of account would I use? I've seen `unrealized gain/loss` and `accumulated depreciation` on search but not sure.

[@HectorGarciaCPA]

You dont enter appreciation in accounting

[@hectoragustin6178]

Hola Hector, soy Hector de Guatemala jajaja tengo una duda y quisiera ver si me puedes ayudar, quisiera saber si la version de Quickbooks Enterprise solutions 21.0 tiene la opcion de realizar cargas masivas desde excel para crear facturas de compras o de ventas (no para crear a los proveedores o clientes) sino para crear las transacciones masivas y no hacerlo una por una . muchas gracias por tu valiosa ayuda....

[@HectorGarciaCPA]

Si las transacciones tienen múltiples líneas, necesitas un app tercero que se llama Transaction Importer Pro, vale como $200

Hi Sir, How do i record sale of shop or plot in real estate company when payment is made on proper scheduled?

[@sloflo1]

What example of tools are considered expenses and at what dollar value do they become fixed assets? I can buy a $200 drill or a $2000 plate compactor for example. Are either fixed assets?

[@HectorGarciaCPA]

Some companies use $500, others $2500 are the threshold from expense to asset

[@NevaehBeatez]

How should recurring bills be handled? Should I create a dedicated liability account for them? So that I can see the balance owing to specific vendors? For example, electrical bill.

[@HectorGarciaCPA]

NevaehBeatez just a bill going to AP as normal.

[@NevaehBeatez]

@@HectorGarciaCPA The problem with that method is that however much I owe the power company is treated like a credit. I don't make payments on specific bills but rather on the total balance itself. Having an expense category dedicated to the bill only shows me how much I've been charged over a given period. I want to see what's remaining to be paid.

[@HectorGarciaCPA]

NevaehBeatez then just write the check or enter the expense to the utilities expense account

[@NevaehBeatez]

@@HectorGarciaCPA Again, the expense account is only good for seeing how much I've spent in total. Not necessarily how much is remaining on my bill. That's why I thought about creating a separate liability account so that I can treat it like credit which needs paid off. The problem with writing it to the expense account and simply holding on to the bill is that I never know how much is remaining on my bills, especially if I have 3+ and they're all considered a single credit.

[@HectorGarciaCPA]

NevaehBeatez I can’t follow sorry... if you want to schedule a consultation, we are open to that.
