I. Title: Project 1: Small Business Accounting using QuickBooks Online II. Introduction: Your good friend Kobe has always expressed interest in opening his own 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 Kobe’s Krafts; he filed for an Employee Identification Number (EIN) in February. Kobe 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, 2020. Kobe’s Krafts sells Kobe’s original artwork and prints of his original artwork that he purchases from a print shop. The original artwork and prints are inventory items. Kobe also accepts custom orders from customers, which are considered commissioned sales. Commissioned artwork is artwork that is created for a particular customer based on their specification. Kobe agreed to allow a few artist friends display and sell their artwork on consignment. Artwork on consignment is owned by the artist who created it and therefore is not recorded as inventory on the accounting records of Kobe’s Krafts. However, when a consignment artwork is sold, Kobe’s Krafts keeps a percentage of the sale as consignment income. Kobe 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. Kobe has 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.
Competencies assessed by this project: Note: graduate accounting program competencies are tightly coupled with the AICPA pre-certification core competencies framework. 1) Measurement, analysis, and interpretation: Identify and apply appropriate, reliable and verifiable measurements to analyze data for a given purpose and intended use. 2) Reporting: Identify the appropriate content and communicate clearly and objectively to the intended audience the work performed and the results as governed by professional standards, required by law or dictated by the business environment. 3) Technology and Tools: Identify and utilize relevant technology and tools to analyze data, efficiently and effectively perform assigned tasks as well as support other competencies.

V. Hints and Tips: General Hints and Tips:
▪ Active participation in the study group is a requirement, but more importantly, helping one
another has been shown to improve all students’ grades. ▪ 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
▪ The beginning balance in the Equity account is $0 because the business was just opened.
▪ 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.
▪ The Inventory account includes two types of inventory: o Original artwork created by Kobe o Prints of Kobe’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: ▪ Kobe’s commissioned (custom) artwork does not pass through the inventory account
because these paintings are from custom orders. ▪ Kobe’s Krafts also sells artwork created by other artists. The items belong to the other
artists and therefore do not pass through the inventory account of Kobe Krafts. Chart of Accounts:
▪ Do not create account numbers for the accounts VI. Rubric:

Appendix C: 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. Kobe’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, Kobe’s Krafts falls into this category. As of April 1st, Kobe’s Krafts 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. Kobe’s Krafts 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. back

Appendix D: Overview of Inventory
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. o You will be adding these categories: Kobe’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 4/1/2020.
• 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 i.e. 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.” Kobe’s Krafts primarily sells 3 types of original artwork and prints - Large, Medium, and Small.
Pricing and Cost of Original Artwork:
Pricing: Standard pricing for Kobe’s original artwork:
Size of Artwork Sales Price Number of Pieces Contributed
Total Value
Large $1,700 5 $8,500
Medium $600 12 $7,200
Small $100 32 $3,200
Sales of Kobe’s original artwork should set the product Income account to: Art Sales: Original Artwork Sales. Cost:
Page 13 of 23
Kobe 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 associated with it, you will enter the sales price of the inventory Kobe transfers in to the business.
Cost and Pricing of Prints:
He transfers all his print inventory (reproductions of original artwork) to the business April 1st, as follows:
Size of Prints QTY Cost per Unit Sales Price per Unit
24 x 36 Print 10 $80 $210
11 x 14 Print 50 $25 $75
5 x 7 Print 110 $4.50 $12
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: Print Expense, which is a COGS account In addition to original artwork and prints, Kobe has several non-inventory items that you need to add.
Description Sales Price per Unit (student)
Income Account
Service (non-taxable) Group Art Classes* $35 Group Art Classes
Non-Inventory Sale Commission Work (i.e. custom orders) N/A Art Sales: Original Artwork Sales
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 commission artwork, Kobe’s Krafts 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. ** Kobe also displays and sells consignment pieces. He earns a 25% commission on each piece sold. The consignee sets the price, so Kobe 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 14 of 23
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. back

Appendix H: 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 Kobe’s bank account. Unless Kobe 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 Expense. 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.

The amount that will remain in the Consignment Income account will be Kobe’s Krafts’ 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. back

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 basis 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. You may notice a balance in the Opening Balance Equity account (QBO “junk” account). QBO made this entry against the owner contributed inventory when you created the product inventory. If there is a balance, you need to create a J/E to move the balance from Opening Balance Equity to Owner Contribution: Debit: Opening Balance Equity to Credit: Owner Investment. 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. back
