Recording a refund

We have received a refund from a hire purchase company that has ended our lease earlier as a good faith gesture and have now credited us with funds.  As this was not a bond refund how would  I allocate this credit.

    I believe that the refund is Interest that could have been charged.

     

    As Genreve mentioned, have a talk with your Accountant.

    Accounting for a HP can be complex.

    Hi Paperboy1


    Thank you for sharing your concern with us. Apologies for the delayed response.

     

    Ensuring all transactions are accurately recorded in the ledger is indeed crucial. There are several ways to achieve this, but I must inform you that providing such guidance falls under financial advice, which we are not permitted to give. I would strongly suggest consulting with an accountant or a financial advisor for this matter.

     

    In the meantime, if you need help with anything else, please don't hesitate to create a new thread. We're here to assist you.

     

    Thanks,
    Genreve
