Scenario: Your good friend Casey has always expressed interest in opening his own retail art studio. He has been painting and selling his artwork for years and already has a good customer base. In January of this year, he started the process of formally setting up a business named Casey’s Crafts; he filed for an Employee Identification Number (EIN) in February. Casey found and rented an art studio on March 1st, and has been cleaning, painting, and setting up the space ever since. The grand opening was April 1, 2022. Casey’s Crafts sells Casey’s original artwork and prints of his original artwork that he purchases from a print shop. The original artwork and prints are inventory items. Casey also accepts custom orders from customers, which are referred to as Custom Artwork Sales. Custom Artwork involves Casey painting a picture for a particular customer based on the customers’ specification. Oftentimes, his Custom Artwork is a family portrait. Also, Casey agreed to allow a few of his artist friends to display and sell their artwork from the Casey’s Crafts shop. These sales would be classified as Consignment Sales. Artwork on consignment is owned by the artist who created the painting and therefore is not recorded as inventory on the Casey Kraft’s accounting records. It is customary for the consignee (the business owner) to retain a percentage of all consignment sales as payment for allowing the consignor (other artists) to display his or her artwork. Casey knows you are going to school for your master’s degree in accounting and has asked for your help setting up and using QuickBooks Online (QBO). You agree to help set up the QBO business account and complete the first month of transactions. You are not familiar with QBO, but you know it will be beneficial to your accounting career to learn QBO because it is the most widely used financial accounting platform for small business in the United States. To feel more confident with QBO, you decide to seek guidance and collaborate with some of your classmates in your MS degree program at UMGC. You recall a few mentioned working as an accountant for small business clients. Casey is interested in using the following QBO features: Sales Receipts/Invoices Purchase Orders/Inventory tracking Bills and Bill Pay
Eager to get started, you carefully read the Steps to Completion and review all QBO learning resources before beginning.
III. Steps to Completion:
Step 1 – Read the project and rubric before you begin communicating with your study group members. You will discuss the project together but will submit individual deliverables. Step 2 – Set up your QBO account. You should have received an email invitation to QuickbooksOnline from Intuit, which your professor initiated. Create your account by clicking the link in the email invitation.

Step 3 – Set up the company account and settings View the Video:
o How to Navigate in QuickBooks o The transcript for this video is in Content/Course Resources/Projects &
Rubrics/Project 2. Remember - QuickBooks is a very forgiving program. Most mistakes can be fixed as you have the ability to go back and make historical changes, however a correct setup will prevent the need in most cases. The following are the important pieces of information you need to set up Casey’s Crafts in QBO. Each of the Bolded items are Categories in the Account and Settings page.
COMPANY: Company Name: Casey’s Crafts_YOUR NAME Your name must be part of the Company name
o There are no exceptions o Example: Casey’s Crafts_SHARON LEVIN
Email: Enter your UMGC email address that appears in our classroom Telephone: Enter your phone number associated with your UMGC profile EIN: Leave the EIN Blank because the EIN has not been received yet Company Type: Sole proprietor Address: 500 Grand Blvd. Miramar Beach, FL 32550 Website: Enter UMGC.edu Tax form: Sole Proprietor (Form 1040) Method of Accounting: Accrual Casey’s Crafts will not be using track classes or track locations
SALES: Casey’s Crafts sales terms are Net 30, unless otherwise stated Shipping is available for a fee Discounts are offered occasionally Casey’s Crafts requires a 50% deposit on all Custom Artwork sales Track the quantity and price/rate for all sales Track inventory quantity on hand for the art prints.
EXPENSES: Casey’s Crafts wants to use purchase orders, so make sure you check the box. All other default settings are fine.
PAYMENTS: This setting is used to allow clients to pay an invoice through their system. Although
Casey’s Crafts is possibly be interested in this feature in the future, he has no current interest.
ADVANCED: Casey’s Crafts is a calendar year taxpayer, but he hasn’t received an EIN yet.
o The first month of the fiscal year is January Use the tax form: Sole proprietorship Form 1040 Do not use account numbers Do not track classes or track locations

Tip for Success: The Opening Balance Equity account balance MUST = $0 before printing your final deliverables. Whenever the Opening Balance Equity account has a balance other than zero ($0), prepare a journal entry to eliminate its balance and credit the appropriate account, which in this case will likely be the Owner’s Investment account.

Step 5 – Set up the sales tax View the Video:
o How to Set Up Sales Tax: Settings, Sales & More o The transcript is in Content/Course Resources/Projects & Rubrics/Project 2
Overview of Sales Tax
NOTE: Sales Tax must be set up in the “TAXES” area in QBO. Proceed with this section carefully. QBO is very user friendly for the most part; however, there are areas that are hard to fix should you set it up incorrectly and Sales Tax is one of those areas so do not rush here. Read all the way through this appendix, watch the how to videos and then proceed with caution. Casey’s new art studio is located in Miramar Beach, Florida, 32550. He is required to pay 7% in sales tax to the State of Florida. Of that 7% state tax, the state of Florida disburses 1% to Walton County. The State of Florida requires most taxpayers to file monthly sales tax returns, Casey’s Crafts falls into this category. As of April 1st, Casey’s Crafts must start collecting taxes and the first return is due no later than May 20th (QBO knows when it is due) for the reporting period of April 1 – April 30. Casey’s Crafts needs to make sure he charges customers and remits sales tax for everything he sells except for the group art classes. Florida does not collect taxes on the sale of services. Address: 500 Grand Blvd. Miramar Beach, FL 32550 Go to the “TAXES” area and set up sales tax for the state of Florida. If you entered the business address when you were setting up the account, QBO should suggest the correct tax agency(s). If not, it should ask you for an address here. Make sure you select Florida Department of Revenue from the dropdown list. Again, make sure you find the taxing agency in the dropdown list to select. Do NOT manually add any taxing body. QBO already has all the information it needs to correctly tax products and it will automatically update taxes should laws change but only if it is set up correctly from the beginning. Step 6 – Set up product items and contributed inventory – View the Video:
o Add Product Information o The transcript can be viewed in the video by clicking CC.
The setup of Inventory will be done in the “INVOICING/SALES” area of QBO. Once in SALES, go to the Products and Services tab. Then click “New” in the upper, right corner. Next click “Inventory” and fill in the name, category, and: • Fill in the name of the first inventory item. • Select the category. The first time you will have to add a new category.
Page 7 of 18
082122 Last updated by S. Levin
o You will be adding these categories: Casey’s Originals, Prints, and Non-inventory items
• The “initial quantity on hand” will be the owner contributed inventory, see the table below. • As of date will be 4/1/2022. • Do not enter a quantity in the “Reorder Point” field for any items. • The Inventory asset account is “Inventory asset” • Do not use product codes aka SKU numbers. • For all items that have a fixed sales price associated with it, enter the Sales price for each
item • Also, make sure you associate the correct Income Account with the correct product.
o Note: all sales of original artwork should be recorded to Income account: Art Sales: Original Artwork Sales
• Enter the costs to have the prints made. • Remember, all sales are taxable EXCEPT FOR Group Art Classes.
o Be sure to select “Taxable Standard” under “Sales tax category” for all sales other than group art classes, which will be “Nontaxable.”
Casey’s Crafts primarily sells 3 types of original artwork and prints - Large, Medium, and Small. Pricing of Original Artwork: Table 2: Standard Sales Prices for Casey’s Original Artwork
Size of Artwork Sales Price Number of Pieces Contributed
Large Originals $4,500 5
Medium Originals $2,500 12
Small Originals $900 32
Sales of Casey’s original artwork should set the product Income account to: Art Sales: Original Artwork Sales. Cost of Original Artwork: Casey was instructed years ago by his tax accountant that his original artwork inventory should not have a COGS associated with it because it is impossible to accurately determine the costs associated with his original artwork, some of which he painted decades ago. Instead, he needs to expense all of his art supplies purchases. However, the prints in inventory are classified as inventory until sold and then those costs will be classified as COGS. So, although the original artwork inventory will have zero costs ($0.00) associated with it, you will enter the sales price of the inventory Casey transfers into the business. On April 1st, Casey contributed his personal inventory of prints (reproductions of original artwork) to the business, as follows:

Table 3: Cost and Pricing of Prints (Reproductions of Casey’s original artwork)
Size of Prints QTY Cost per Unit
Sales Price per Unit
24 x 36 Print 12 $95 $214.99 11 x 14 Print 48 $30 $79.99
5 x 7 Print 125 $7.75 $19.99
All of the prints in the table above should have the following setting: 1. Income account to: Art Sales: Print Sales 2. Expense account to: Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) account Note: QBO will automatically credit the Opening Balance Equity account when you enter the prints. Thus, you must prepare a journal entry to move each print size balance in the Opening Balance Equity to the Owner’s Investment account. The Opening Balance Equity account must be zero ($0). In addition to original artwork and prints, Casey has several non-inventory items that you need to add.

Non-Inventory Sale Custom Artwork N/A Art Sales: Original
Artwork Non-Inventory Sale Consignment Artwork** N/A Consignment Income Non-Inventory Sale Unusual Sales PP&E*** N/A Gain on sale of PP&E
For all Custom Artwork, Casey’s Crafts requires a 50% deposit at time of order and the balance when the buyer picks up the artwork. * Remember, this is the only non-taxable item. ** Casey also displays and sells consignment pieces. He earns a 25% commission on each piece sold. The consignee sets the price, so Casey keeps those records on an Excel spreadsheet and does not enter the prices in QBO until he sells the pieces. In other words, the consignment inventory is not an inventory item, but you need to set up a product item to handle the transaction. However, make note of all consignment sales because in order to complete the
Page 9 of 18
082122 Last updated by S. Levin
sales transaction, you need to make a journal entry (JE) to move 75% of the sale from the P&L to the balance sheet as Consignments Payable. *** Sales of PP&E will also require a JE to remove the item from the balance sheet and reduce the gain (or increase the loss) on the sale. The transaction is not complete until this JE is made. Step 7 – Create journal entries for all other (non-inventory) owner contributions View the Video:
o Journal Entries in QuickBooks Online The transcript is in Content/Course Resources/Projects & Rubrics/Project 2
Owner Investments (aka Owner Contributions)
To enter all owner contributions, you may create one or multiple JEs. Determine the correct account to debit from the list below and credit: Owner’s Investments. Reminder: all of the items below were paid by Casey from his personal bank account. Also remember to put the description of each item in the JEs. Table 5: Owner’s Contributions/Investments

NOTE: Make sure you document the check number used to pay the bill.
April Transactions: Make sure you pay all bills through the EXPENSES area and receive all invoice payments in the SALES area. Make sure you pay the sales tax through the TAXES area. If your sales taxes due for the period of April is different than the transaction amount below, there is a problem with your sales tax somewhere along the way. All receipts that were not invoice payments will require a Sales Receipt. You will create Sales Receipts in the SALES area. All sales should be considered cash sales. Just make sure the dates are correct and the account the money is deposited to is Casey’s bank account. Unless Casey does recurring business with a customer, or it is a special sale, all Sales receipt transactions will be from customer “Customers."

Write checks for all expenses that are not bill payments. However, if there is no check number associated with the transaction, that means it is a debit card transaction so change the check number to EFT in place of the check number. Small inexpensive purchases, under $500, should be expensed. Make sure you select the appropriate account for each transaction. Do not add any more accounts as you enter these transactions. Think macro instead of micro. For example, paying for a PO Box or purchasing small, inexpensive items, such as a lamp, should be considered an Office Supply. QBO is limited in what you can record in a single transaction. This is where journal entries (JEs) will be necessary. Hint: transactions where JEs will be necessary include sale of fixed assets and sale of consignment artwork. I suggest you make the JEs as you go to complete the transactions.

* Note, this transaction is instructing you to code an expense item to an income account because the original transaction records the full sales price to consignment income. Check #1003 is removing the consignee’s portion of the consignment sale income. The amount that will remain in the Consignment Income account will be Casey’s Crafts’ consignment income, which equals 25% of the sale. QBO offers multiple ways to properly record the revenue; this method is one way. An alternative method would create a J/E to move 75% of the consignment sale to a payable account at the time of sale is recorded and then record the check against that payable.

You may notice a balance in the Opening Balance Equity account. QBO automatically created this account when you entered the print inventory. The Opening Balance Equity account is a temporary holding account (sometimes referred to as a junk account) that needs to be zeroed out by preparing a journal entry before financial statements are printed. Create a journal entry to move the balance from Opening Balance Equity (debit) to Owner Investment (credit). The Opening Balance Equity account balance must be zero on the Balance Sheet.
If your fixed asset account is incorrect, another J/E will be required is to remove the art display PP&E that was sold from the books because it hasn’t been done yet: Debit: Gain on Sale of PPE and Credit: Art Displays.
Step 13: Compare Check Figures Check figures are the correct account balances for a select number of accounts. You should compare the check figures below to your account balances. Discrepancies can be traced by reviewing General Ledger account balances to detect transactions that may have caused your account balance to differ.

Note, make sure the basis for the financial statement is in the correct basis for your comparison. The best practice is to review in both bases to ensure you do not have errors in the statements. Other than the accounts listed above, make sure you scan and make sure all balances make sense. For example, the only negative numbers in the financials should be the Owner Distributions and Discounts given. Step 14 – Print and save the following reports: P&L, Balance Sheet, and General Ledger in PDF format Print the P&L, Balance Sheet, and General Ledger in PDF.

IV. Deliverables Submit the one (1) PDF Reports file you created in Step 15 above. There are multiple free software options to combine PDF files on the Internet, such as Combine PDF. V. Rubric: You will find the rubric in LEO under Content>Learning Resources>Assessments: Projects, Discussions, Quizzes, & Rubrics>Project 2. VI. Hints and Tips: General Hints and Tips: Read the entire Project before beginning the project; make notes as you read Read the Rubric before beginning the project In QBO:
1. Do NOT track Classes 2. Do NOT track Locations
Submit the Project deliverables on or before the due date.
1. Review the Late Policy in advance of the due date; your professor is required to enforce the late policy.
Ask your supervisor (professor) questions as needed. Inventory Hints and Tips: When first setting up the inventory account, associate each inventory item with the
correct Sales account. Be cautious not to confuse Custom Artwork with Consignment artwork The inventory account includes two types (only) of inventory:
o Original artwork created by Casey Casey’s originals have a cost basis of $0
o Prints of Casey’s original artwork When inputting the print inventory items, record the costs incurred to pay
the print shop to make the prints
Non-Inventory Hints and Tips: Casey’s Custom Artwork does not pass through the inventory account because these
paintings are delivered to the customers immediately upon completion, thus they not held long enough to be considered inventory.
Casey’s Crafts also sells artwork created by other artists. The items belong to the other artists and therefore do not pass through the inventory account of Casey Crafts.
As a reminder, the Opening Balance Equity account must be zero ($0) before printing your deliverables. If the Opening Balance Equity account has a balance other than zero ($0), prepare a journal entry to eliminate its balance and credit the appropriate account, which in this case will likely be the Owner’s Investment account.

Do not create account numbers for the accounts.
