Training Expenses or Office Supplies Expenses?

[Jethro]

Hi, during our training we bought office supplies like bond papers, pens, etc. Question: Should I record this as Training Expenses or Office Supplies Expenses?

Entirely up to you how you want to treat it. You might want to class it as training if you want to keep a tab on the cost of individual training sessions. Alternatively, you might not be too fussed about getting that granular and just treat it as an office supplies expense and just plonk a % estimate of how much of the overall office supplies expense is related to training on it to come up with a thereabouts figure for the cost of training sessions.

Better to treat and create a separate ledger for Training Expense to be a track and analysis of the training expenses being incurred at different periods of time.
