Question

If vehicles sell via an auction company, auction fees are deducted from the sale price prior to direct debit payment to us. Do I enter an expense for auction fees?

Because no invoice is received for auction fees (they are listed and automatically deducted from vehicle sale price on invoice, there is never a separate expense match for the fees.
