Hi everyone,

I am new to GNUCASH and am working on my chart of accounts and journals
I am a owner op trucker and work with a single customer for now.
I use the customers credit card for all business expenses such as gas, tolls, trailer and truck expenses
Every week I receiver a payment document that details gross revenue, expenses down to net bank deposit
My question is how to record the $64/$69 food per day per diem.
The concept is to lower taxable income by the per diem amount, however it does not increase salary
So is the debit to per diem expense, the credit to ??????
What is GNUCASH recommended approach?
Is this a tax return issue only?
