QuickBooks Business Accounting

Packt pairs its Tricky Situations in QuickBooks Online section with accrual bookkeeping. Corporate cards, job costing and overhead allocation introduce cases that require more thought than simply categorizing a bank-feed item. It suits learners who want to connect a software entry with its accounting purpose and recognize when a business situation needs additional supporting records or a different treatment.

What you will learn

• Explore accrual bookkeeping in QuickBooks.
• Review corporate-card and job-costing workflows.
• Connect overhead allocation with business accounting records.

Who this suits

Beginners interested in business accounting. Although the provider labels the course beginner, basic knowledge of transactions will make the applied examples easier to follow.

Before you enroll

Match the demonstrated QuickBooks edition and country setting to the software you intend to use. Subscription access, banking services and payment processing may cost extra. Work with fictional records in a practice company, and check current tax or payroll rules separately. Completing a course does not confer Intuit ProAdvisor status or a professional accounting qualification.

Coursera offers paid enrollment or subscription access. Check the enrollment screen for assessment and certificate terms, trials and any financial-aid options. Provider access terms can change; review them before paying.

Put it into practice

Create a fictional job with a direct expense and an allocated overhead cost. Explain the accounting treatment, outline the QuickBooks entries and identify what would change if a corporate card paid the expense.
