Hi , I am using Reckon One. How do I record the weekly payments for a chattel mortgage for the business car? Thanks,
Raluca

    Have you set up the mortgage in Reckon one? Do you have the copy of the finance contract and the repayment schedule?

    Essentially it looks like this

    Dr Asset Motor vehicles at cost
    Dr Asset Capitalized interest (total loan interest)
    Cr Lease liability

    Now you need to have the schedule of interest payments because this will be amortized over the life of the loan. 

    The monthly entry will like this:

    Dr Lease liability
    Dr interest expense
    Cr Capitalized interest
    Cr Cash at bank

    I hope this makes sense

    Call me if you think I can help
