Podcast Recommendation: Business by the Numbers

[bantar]

By Hunt Demarest.    I heard about this guy, but only vaguely.  He was on my eventual to-listen-to list, but it hadn't bubbled up.  Who wants to listen to an accounting podcast????    Well, the timing was right and I saw a new Podcast entitled "Accounting for Internal and Warranty Work".  I listened and was pleasantly surprised.   First, a shout-out to Hunt.  He's not boring.  This is very important as I normally listen to these while commuting.  I don't want to fall asleep while driving!  He's likeable, and he covers his subjects quite well    After listening to this podcast, I immediately revamped my Warranty Work accounting method.   I know knew WHY it was important to follow his process for dealing with warranty work.  Previously, we just ate the costs and didn't document them religiously.   I spent the time to fix up all of 2022 with some correcting journal entries.

His CPA firm focuses on auto-shops.  It seems that he is crowd-sourcing his topics by asking for topics or creating topics from frequently asked questions.  There was a podcast on advertising.  How much should you spend?  Is zero enough?  Is 100K monthly enough?   There was another on Tax Tips and common questions, such as "Can I pay for my goomah with business funds?"  (OK, not really, but you get the picture).  Where are the legal boundaries with taxes?  What qualifies and what doesn't?  Is accelerated depreciation best?

TLDR:  Great podcast.  Not boring, in spite of being accounting.  Auto Shop focused.   I recommend that you listen.
