So I am new to QB and have recently opened and account for my startup (an LLC); my initial goal is to correctly have my historical books for 2020 in order, and then make sure 2021 is also correct. My question is:
2020 I had no revenue and just expenses, most of which were paid across different personal checking accounts and personal credit cards. I have manually imported each card's relevant expense transactions into QB, allocated the to the correct chart of account, but how do I account for these expenses as essentially being "Owners Investment / Equity" into the business? A journal entry of the total of all expenses? Anything else I should do to make sure that my 2020 Balance Sheet / Statement of Operations is accurate?
Thanks in advance....
