Think this might be a daft question but I need to check this.
I know that delivery charges for purchases (goods for resale) are treated as carriage in and are charged to the trading account. I know that delivery charges for an asset are added to the cost of the asset. But what happens if you are charged delivery for an expense item such as stationery etc. Do you charge the delivery cost separately as "postage" or do you add the cost of the stationery. Or do you set up a "delivery charge" account.
Personally, I would just add it in to the cost of the stationery or other expense unless the client has a reason to specifically monitor delivery costs. To do otherwise is just adding pointless work.
