Hi all. I'm again stuck with a specific type of transaction and would like to have it validated (or corrected). Suggestions on how you would do it are welcome as well - I might not be using the most intuitive way of registering it.
So... I bought an item for 300. Paid for it from my checking account. I paid for shipping separately 10. Paid for this as well from my checking account. Sold the item for 320, which was wire-transferred into my checking account. I have earned 10 from the transaction. I have created an account for that item: Assets:Material:Item #1 Also, I've added a shipping sub-account to it: Assets:Material:Item #1:Shipping Then I entered the split transaction as follows: PURCHASE = Increase "Assets:Material:Item #1" of 300. Increase "Assets:Material:Item #1:Shipping" of 10. Decrease "Checking account" by 300. Decrease "Checking account" by 10. As I also have an account for "Postage expenses", how would I have to register the 10 bucks I spent for shipping, so that it also accounts towards the postage expenses in general? SALE = Increase "Checking account" by 320. Decrease "Assets:Material:Item #1:Shipping" by 10. Decrease "Assets:Material:Item #1" by 300. Increase "Sales Surplus" by 10. Thanks (again) for your help!
