I just got a notification that my new leather seats have shipped! I still don’t have the seat heater switches...but they’ll get here...probably.  In a few weeks time I will be sitting pretty.  oh yeah.

you will soon b e debited a set of seats.  The funds will be credited from your seat money account.  Accounting IS dumb.

What is this the 1500's? You got this all wrong

SPend $500 ordering a set of seats. Improve resale $1,1 00. Book profit of $600 today. Depreciate seats $200 at the end of the year and write off the loss. Overall the seats cost you -$665.

I’m changing banks at the moment for the company I run my side gig through, and as part of the latest BS anti money laundering requirements they wanted to see the company’s books for the last few years. They then got all shitty because I’d been doing them myself rather than using an accountant. I felt like shaking them and saying “It’s not that fucking difficult!!!!” I do work, company gets paid, company pays me. T hat’s all there is : the entire set of annual financial statements fits on a page. Anyone with 5th grade maths and half a clue about financial terminology could figure it out.

Accounting is definitely stupid.

On the other hand, it at least allows me to tell my engineers when they bitch about salary “ we both knew when we left high school that we had the brains and the math to be accountants, and that that paid a shitload better, but we chose to become engineers instead because accounting is boring and stupid. So shut up, lie in the bed you’ve made, and enjoy getting to blow shit up instead of having to figure out where the missing $0.37 went. ”

Ah but if he leased the seats, he could write the total payment, including tax, off as an expense and reduce his net income at the same time!  Accounting!
