Independent Boba and Bubble Tea Shop Bookkeeping: Drink-Level COGS, Loyalty Breakage, and the KPIs That Actually Predict Survival

A working accounting backbone for an independent boba shop — recipe-card COGS down to the tapioca pearl, ASC 606 deferred revenue for loyalty and gift cards, Section 179 treatment for pearl cookers and heat sealers, the Section 45B FICA tip credit on Form 8846, FDA calorie disclosure thresholds, and the FDD Item 19 KPIs (ADS, prime cost, drinks per labor hour) that separate operators who scale from operators who close.

This guide covers booking DoorDash and Uber Eats revenue gross under ASC 606, claiming the FICA tip credit on Form 8846, capitalizing deck and conveyor ovens under Section 179, and building recipe cards that expose the gap between theoretical and actual food cost.

Pool Service Company Bookkeeping: Chemical COGS, Truck Depreciation, Licensing, and Seasonal Cash Flow

How residential and commercial pool service operators set up books that reveal true per-stop margin — separating recurring weekly routes from project work, tracking chemicals as variable COGS, allocating truck and Section 179 depreciation to routes, amortizing pesticide applicator licenses, and managing seasonal deferred revenue.

The Independent Used Car Dealer's Bookkeeping Playbook: Floorplan Notes, F&I Chargeback Reserves, Recon WIP, and the Buyers Guide That Costs $51,744 to Get Wrong

Independent auto repair shops earn from labor, parts, sublet work, and environmental fees — each with different margins and bookkeeping rules. This guide builds a chart of accounts that separates flat-rate labor from clock hours, applies a tiered parts markup matrix targeting 55–58% gross profit, tracks comeback expense and warranty receivables aging, codes sublet work cleanly, and records EPA hazmat and shop supply fees as their own revenue and cost lines.
