Calculating and entering depreciation expense is bothersome for most QuickBooks users. This book makes it a breeze, with complete instructions for using a free spreadsheet template available from the publisher's Web site (downloadable here). What's more, the book shows three different ways to import depreciation transactions into QuickBooks from the spreadsheet template—reducing the job from hours to minutes.
