Bookkeeping Tip #8
Joe Cavell February 11, 2026
Reimburse yourself for business expenses.
Sometimes you’ll accidentally pay for a business expense with personal money—and that’s okay. Just make sure the expense still runs through your business.
The fix? Have your business reimburse you with a separate check (not your regular salary or draw). List the expense details, attach the receipt, and reimburse the exact amount—just like you would for an employee.
✅ Keeps business expenses deductible
✅ Creates a clear audit trail
✅ Keeps personal and business finances separate
A little extra effort now saves headaches later.
