Company B took 41K worth of good on Consignment from Company A.
Company B bought out Company A . Company A has rents haven’t been paid to the landlord. Company B will now pay that back-rent of 41K on a monthly 5K return amount basis. Company A said rather than paying us the 41K of consigned goods you just pay our back-rent of 41K owed to the landlord.

 

How do I record this?

Hello there, ywas.

 

Allow me to share some information about tracking consignment transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

First, you'll need to set up Company A as vendors in QuickBooks, then set up consignment sales item.

 

To set up a vendors:

 

  1. Go to Get paid & pay, then Vendors.
  2. Click on New vendor.
  3. Use the fields in the Vendor dialog to enter the consignor's information.
  4. Select Save.

 

After that, create a consignment income account and consignment sales item. You can check out the steps outline in this article ( 2. Set up consignment income accounts 😞 😞 How to record consignment sales.

 

Once you're done with the set up, record a barter transaction for the exchange of goods and services. To do this, you'll need to an invoice and a bill to record the products or services you’re exchanging. Use this link as a reference: Record a barter transaction.

 

I also recommend consulting an accountant for other ways in recording these transactions.
