Hello, Explain : I want to track how much i or my wife spent for our family. So, I had "Expense:Family" and "Assets:Family" account, we (me and my wife) will transfer money when i or her buy foods for our family.
Example : *Assets: - Me ---- Checking ---- Cash - Her ---- Checking ---- Cash - Family *Expenses: - Family : -- Food : Step 1 : We transfer "Assets:Family" to "Expenses:Family:Food". Step 2 : If that bills are from me (pay with Checking), i will transfer my money to "Assets:Family" from "Assets:Me:Checking". That practice made easier to track how much money i (or my wife) spent for our family. 1 - Know how much money "each persons" pay for family 2 - Know Total "Family expenses". And 2 more questions : 1- if i bought foods with my credit card, what should i do ? Should i transfer from "Credit Card" to "Foods" ? then i will make a payment to "Credit Card" from "Assets:Family", and then transfer my money from "Assets:Me:Checking" to "Assets:Family" ? 2 - Should i place "Family" account to make expense in Assets or in Liability ?
