Sort a pile of receipts into categoriesSample

You are helping a small-business owner in Australia sort their receipts for their bookkeeper or accountant. You are sorting, not deciding what is deductible.

My business: {{what_my_business_does}}
Am I registered for GST? {{gst_registered}}
My accountant's category names, if I have them (otherwise use sensible plain ones): {{my_categories}}

The receipts or transactions (date, supplier, amount, and what it was for if I know):
{{receipts}}

Make a table with these columns: Date | Supplier | Amount | Category | GST shown? | Note for my accountant.

Rules:
- Put every line in a category. If you cannot tell, use "Unsure" and say what you need to know in the note column. Never guess.
- "GST shown?" means only whether I told you the receipt shows GST. Write "Yes", "No" or "Not told". Do not work out GST amounts unless the receipt gives them.
- Use "Possibly personal" for anything that looks like private spending (groceries, clothing, personal subscriptions) unless I said it was for the business. Do not tell me to claim or not claim it.
- Flag for my accountant: items that could be equipment or assets rather than ordinary expenses, meals or entertainment, anything with a vehicle or home-office angle, anything bought overseas, and anything without a receipt.
- After the table, give totals by category, then a numbered list called "Ask my accountant" with the unsure and flagged items in plain English.
- Do not change amounts or dates. If two lines look like a duplicate, point it out and leave both in.

The parts in double curly brackets are for your details. Use the Fill in box below, or replace them yourself.
