BBL Repayment

  • August 30, 2021

Hi,

So I have a liability account, that has a Bounce Back Loan in it. 

Lets say for £10,000. 

It's Negative £10,000. That's correct. Fine. 

So I sync my bank transactions and apply the payment to that account. That's fine. 

But  my interest has started coming off as well, it comes off the Bounce Bank Loan account and adds onto the balance. 

How do I reflect these interest payments in the BBL account and apply them to a expense P&L?

Thanks for your prompt reply, @email4.

 

I'll share some other ways to reflect those interest payments as expenses in your BBL account. 

 

You'll want to manually add an expense transaction to your BBL account to show the interest payments as an expense. I'll show you how.

 

  1. Go to the Accounting menu in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
  2. Select Chart of accounts.
  3. Locate and double-click your BBL account to open it.
  4. From the top of the list, select the Add cheque or Add Expense drop-down and select Expense. 
  5. Fill out the fields to complete the transaction, then click Save.

Moreover, I still encourage you to check with your accountant or visit our ProAdvisor page to look for one from there. This way, you'll be guided accordingly in recording this. They can also provide you on other ways to record this.

 

Once you're all set, feel free to check out this article for reference. This can walk you through the process of flawlessly matching your book and bank accounts: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Online.

I'll share insight on your query about a bounce-back loan repayment along with its interest, @email4.

 

You can create a cheque or an expense transaction to record the payment for this type of loan. To include interest payments, add them as another line item. Assign a specific expense account for these interest payments so you can have them show up in the Profit and Loss report. 

 

Please be advised that it's best to consult an accountant for this matter. They can guide you with what accounts to use, so you can keep your books accurate. 

 

Let me know in the comments below if you have other questions about bounce-back loans in QuickBooks Online. I'll be around to help you out. Have a pleasant day!
