tire disposal

[Jaybee]

We have decided to start passing the cost of tire disposal off to our customers. I am looking for ideas on how best to do this. At a previous place we billed it as a part and added it anytime we sold a tire.I am not crazy about how the accounting works this way. I understand we could also bill this on an RO as a misc. charge. We use R&R. The consensus here is to have service bill it on the RO. Thanks in advance for your help

Set it up like you would for a hazardous waste charge. I call it tire recycle fee. Set accounting to your outside services account so that your charges offset what your are paying for disposal.
Best way is to set up a tire op code and add this misc charge to the op code so that no one has to remember to add it at the time of sale.

Yes, the best way would be to set it up through Misc. screen. You can enter the Line in 3631, just be sure to have the GL Acct. # handy. Also, set it to auto calc off & assign it by Op code in 3625. You can adjust so that it bills out by the proper qty. if you have different op #'s for different tire quantities. Also, be sure to add it in on 3767 if you have SPG.
