Question about paying sales tax in California: How do you pay for late sales tax? If I try to make a payment online it just allows me to pay for March filing and not for the months before. I need to pay sales tax from January to March but I don’t see any option for paying Jan & Feb. Is there a different way to pay for late sales tax? What if I just pay the whole amount (Jan-Feb-March) as March filing period? Thank you! submitted by /u/princessxena89 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Right now I am dual working at 2 jobs. Looking for timer suggestions that I can place on the desk to track bookkeeping time. Keeping track on an app isn't feasible as I often have to jump up and help, not spend 30 seconds finding the app and stopping the clock. All suggestions are welcome, links to the timer are even better. Thanks! submitted by /u/Edosil [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I have a background in bookkeeping and accounting, but no certification and no degree in it. I also have always used whatever system the company I worked for or temp staffed with used. Now, I'm trying to branch out on my own with at home bookkeeping jobs. Does anyone have any suggestions for youtube based "refresher" videos on bookkeeping that I could brush up on my skills? What about the best software to be trained on? Should I go with Quickbooks training or Sage50 or Xero? I am on a limited budget and trying to brush up on all my skills so I'm ready to go. Thanks! submitted by /u/eclectic_ ..read more

I think I know the answer but was curious to get assurance and/or opinions on a new client who owns a ticket platform. They own a ticket platform but the entire gross amount of tickets sold hits their bank account and then they pay out to the venues/artists. Wouldn’t this create short-term payables to the venues instead of creating a revenue and COS line items on the P/L? submitted by /u/mattyjp-10 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I’m establishing my practice as a Xero firm and I recently got approached by a small law firm to offer bookkeeping services for them. I’m curious if I should bring them to Xero or stick to Quickbooks for them only. I’m comfortable with both, just find Xero more fun to use compared with QBO. Open to go with the one with least headache. submitted by /u/neverleftso [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I currently work as a bookkeeper really only doing deposits and accounts payable. I want to get a better position with more responsibility and better pay, but I’m having trouble with even getting an interview. Would it be worth it to get a one semester certificate from my local community college? I don’t think I have more than one semester of education in me right now though submitted by /u/swarlossupernaturale [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
