Are Credit Card Charges Included On a Cash Basis Report?

Chief Mechanic · September 5, 2010 ·

Yes, credit card charges are included on a cash basis report in QuickBooks.

Credit card charges are generally considered paid for tax purposes when charged, and this is how QuickBooks treats these expenses.

An internet search on this topic reveals a variety of unsupported claims about the application of this accounting treatment, specifically that it varies by the type of card issuer or the type of card. The claims we’ve investigated are unsupported. Simply put, credit card or other charge card purchases are considered paid for tax purposes when charged, and that treatment does not depend on the card type or card issuer.

Intuit offers additional explanation for the treatment of credit card charges in this Intuit knowledge base article.

Chief Mechanic · September 5, 2010 ·

According to Intuit, the error code referencing Microsoft’s msvcr80.dll is an error that can occur when running the Rebuild Data utility on a company file (.qbw) that had been converted from an older to a newer version. It indicates that the company file (.qbw) had possible data corruption before the file was converted to the newer version.

The error is accompanied by the following:

QuickBooks has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. Please tell Microsoft about this problem. We have created an error report that you can send to us. We will treat this report as confidential and anonymous.

If possible, Intuit recommends returning to the file before it was converted to the newer version, repairing the damage, and re-converting to the newer version.

However, if the file had been converted some time ago, this solution isn’t practical.
