recording non-cash contibutions in QB Premier Non-Profit 2013

How do I enter a non-cash contribution ie. a person buys cups for $12.50 and wants to donate them, but the church needs to track the expense.

In kind donations

For your cups I would create an income account called Gifts in kind - goods and an expense account called Donated materials and supplies.

You would then create a journal entry and credit gifts in kind and debit donated materials.

In the memo field list cups you can also place the donors name in the name field and if you use classes assign the appropriate classes.

If they have a receipt it can be a like-kind donation that should go on their year-end tax deduction statement.
