After I enter a Capital Asset I later need to add the PST charged on the asset to the asset price itself. How could I go about entering that?

    Hi Ashley, If the PST was paid in the same fiscal year as the purchase was made then you should enter a withdrawal for the amount of the PST, then do a C- line remove the asset at the originally recorded price, then add a C+ line to add the asset back in, this time at the original price + the PST.

    If the PST was paid in a different fiscal year then you may want to talk with your accountant about making an adjusting entry through the general journal entry screen. If that's the case then for now, just enter a Withdrawal and then use an A+ line and choose your PST paid account. That will allow you to reconcile your bank and the PST can sit and wait for the adjustment.
