Toll Road monthly management fee

I have an Indiana EZ Pass for which they started charging a monthly fee ($1.50) for each transponder. I only use the EZ pass on rental vehicles for business purposes.  I do charge the actual tolls as travel expense. They also charge the business credit card a fixed amount of $10 whenever the balance gets below $2.50 resulting in a positive account balance at the toll company.

 

How are the monthly fees to be entered?

FWIW, this is for a single member LLC.

 

Thanks.

I'd be glad to help you add the credit card charges, ChuckHack.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can enter the credit card charges as Expenses. You can select a category so that you can post the amount accurately. Here's how: 

 

  1. Click on + New. Then hit Expense.
  2. Go to the Payee field, and pick the vendor.
  3. From the Payment account field, choose the account you used to pay for the expense.
  4. Navigate to the Payment date field, and enter the date for the expense.
  5. In the Payment method field, select how you paid for the expense. 
  6. Enter the advance amount.
  7. Fill out all other necessary information.
  8. Once done, hit Save and close.

 

I'd also recommend reconciling your account in QBO as this would match your bank and credit card statements.

Do you have a suggestion for the expense account? Considering this is not a toll fee but a monthly management fee for the transponder, I'm at a loss as to what the account/name should be.

Hi there, ChuckHack. I'm here to provide the list of expense accounts you can select.

 

Here are some of the list of expense accounts you can choose from:

 

  • Advertising/Promotional
  • Parking and tolls
  • Cost of labor
  • Commissions and fees
  • Repair maintenance.
  • Travel

However, I'd still recommend contacting your accountant for guidance to check the most appropriate expense account to ensure the accuracy of books. If you don't have one, you can find a professional through this link: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/find-an-accountant/

 

On the other hand, you can generate reports in QuickBooks Online. These can help you gain valuable insights into your business's financial performance and make informed decisions about allocating resources and planning for the future.
