Inventory on Balance Sheet

I import my bank statements and Stripe transactions into quickbooks online. ny purchases from suppliers are marked as Current Assets - Stock. 

 

However, this means at the end of the year the full amount paid is shown as an assets in the balance statement. How do I "draw down" the stock as it is sold? 

 

I don't use Quickbooks for generating invoices etc

Inventory on Balance Sheet

Hello there, user250922.

 

We can create a journal entry to draw down the stock. This method needs the assistance of an accounting professional for the accounts you need to use. Also, your accountant can help and guide you on which account to debit and credit. This is to ensure everything will remain accurate.

 

Here are the steps on how to record journal entries:

 

  1. Go to the+ New button.
  2. Select Journal entry.
  3. Enter information of the journal entry such as accounts, amount, etc.
  4. Select Save and new or Save and close.

 

To find an accountant, let's follow these steps:

 

  1. Go to the Find-a-ProAdvisor website.
  2. Enter the specific location, service, and product.
