Same way as on paper. Both of those are expenses. There may be a way to do that with sub-accounts though. I think some folks use an 'accumulated depreciation' sub-account to not affect the main asset account for that item. The same might be possible with the financing expenses, but are

Ryan, It is not income. It should be applied to the customers account and when you generate invoices for this customer, the money can then be applied to those invoices as payment until the amount is used up. You also would not issue a credit note to the customer, but show it as a payment on

Normally, people 'reconcile' their records to the financial institution, marking the ones on which they agree as 'reconciled'. If everything went right, the accounts should balance, leaving the transactions that the bank doesn't know about... regardless of date. I sent a check to a sister-in-law
