Frequently asked questions
How do we record equipment we hire out?
Owned equipment sits in a fixed asset register and is depreciated. Income from hiring it out is recorded separately, so you can see whether the kit pays for itself.
Can you track each production's budget?
Yes. We set up each production as a project and report budget against actual costs every month.
