Question

I have a very simple side hustle where we provide video production services.

Dont want the overhead of being a ltd.

Sometimes I need to get people in to assist with various duties, director, additional camera personel. They all operate as soletrader freelancers.

Suppose I get paid £1000 and pay a director and camera man £300 each. How do I expense this? I tried using services in quickbooks, but doesn't seem to deduct the costs as I would expect in the taxes section?

Thanks in advance

Hi @themoog,

Thank you for writing here.

 

If you hire freelance directors, Cameraman etc. then it will be considered as "Expense > Other Miscellaneous Service Cost"

 

Record 1000 as your income
Create an expense form (+) New

Thanks for replying, I don't seem to have the option of Other Miscellaneous Service Cost ?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @themoog 

 

You have to create the chart of Accounts first. Then you will find it in category.
