I'm going to show you a way to record the sale of a financed asset uh in QuickBook so you can record the gain rate record the cash you get. Go to the Company menu.Should I use a Journal entry again and get rid of the asset and diminish my Loan to 0 and only then dispose the Fixed asset? But generally speaking I would create a journal entry to record the acquisition as follows. This entry has several steps to account for the updates to your portfolio. It removes the property from your balance sheet, clears its accumulated depreciation. An asset disposal may require the recording of a gain or loss on the transaction in the reporting period when the disposal occurs. (3-year terms - limited to 2 full terms).
