Invoices and commissions for clients

We own a horse racing company and our clients pay us to train and race their horses.

After a horse wins a race, we receive the winnings and distribute to the owners.There's multiples steps that happen ans not sure how to record/

 

We receive money and deposit in our bank from the Racing Association- how does this get recorded

 

At the end of the month, if an owner wins races we deduct the amount they won from what they owe us for training horses on the invoice. How do I record the credit (which is there money) on the invoice? (I'm assuming its not discount value) 

 

 

 

We then pay out the remaining balance to the owner by check- what category does this fall under?

You invoice for the training and racing, and I would imagine any feed, etc that you use.
receive the payment on the invoice and deposit.

 

Receive the race winnings using a sales receipt and an item linked to an income account, and deposit

 

The horse owner has to be listed as a vendor and checked as being eligible for the 1099. Use an expense account that is linked to block 7 of the 1099 on the payment.

 

Assuming the training invoice is still open
enter a bill for the horse owner using the expense account and the amount due to them.

 

IF, if the training invoice is higher, receive a partial payment and deposit to the cash account. then use pay bills and pay that amount from the cash account on the bill to clear it and show it is paid, the horse owner still pays the balance due on the training invoice.

 

IF, if the training invoice is lower, receive the full amount and deposit to a cash account. Then use pay bills and pay the amount on the from the cash account to show it is partially paid. Cut a check the balance owed the horse owner and use the 1099 mapped expense account as the expense (reason) for the check.
