A federal termination for convenience is not a lost contract — it is a settlement claim. This guide covers the three deadlines (120 days for inventory schedules, one year for the final proposal, 90 days for an equitable adjustment), the four cost buckets plus recoverable settlement expenses, the SF 1435/1436/1438/1439 forms, and the cost segregation that decides how much you actually recover.
Intuit's fiscal 2026 (ended July 31, 2026) closed with $21.4B of revenue (+14%), $4.6B of GAAP net income, and operating margin at 27% — while $5.5B of buybacks (+96% YoY) and a 15% dividend raise pushed stockholders' equity down to $19.0B. Every period from FY2022 through the audited FY2026 annual is asserted in a public Beancount ledger.
Kroger posted $34.6B in Q2 FY2026 sales (+2.0%) and $641M net earnings, but identical sales without fuel rose just 0.2% and full-year identical-sales guidance was cut to 0.2%–0.8% while adjusted EPS of $5.10–$5.30 was reaffirmed. We rebuild the quarter in a Beancount ledger to show how pharmacy, fuel, media, and eCommerce carry a 1.9%-net-margin grocer.
Offering layaway for holiday 2026 lets retailers keep the full ticket price instead of paying 4-6% BNPL merchant fees — but deposits must be booked as liabilities until pickup, every fee disclosed in writing before the first payment, and sales tax timed to delivery. This guide covers the accounting entries, state disclosure rules, and the layaway-versus-BNPL math.
Lululemon FY2026 Q2: net revenue $2.416B (−4%), comparable sales −9% with Americas at −12%, and net income $329M (−11%). The 60.5% gross margin includes 560 basis points from $134.5M of IEEPA tariff refunds, inventories sit at $1,711M near the cycle high, and full-year guidance was cut to $10.35–10.5B — all tracked in a public Beancount ledger spanning FY2021–FY2026Q2.
Marvell's Q2 FY2027 (ended August 1, 2026) posted record revenue of $2.739B (+37% YoY) and data-center revenue of $2.172B (+46%), yet GAAP net income of $308M was barely a third of the $866M non-GAAP figure. The $558M gap — $326M stock-based compensation plus $215M acquired-intangible amortization — is reconciled line by line in a public Beancount ledger.
Medtronic Q1 FY2027: $9.756B revenue (+13.7%), GAAP net income $1.470B, EPS $1.14, Cardiac Ablation +88%, and a raised FY27 guide — tracked in a public Beancount ledger that keeps the real 14-week period end and states the release’s ~$570M extra-week estimate.
A mobile welder quoting $90 an hour often spends $20–$35 of every arc hour on shielding gas, wire, and abrasives alone. This guide shows how to book consumables as direct job costs, build a true cost per arc hour, price the non-arc hours around it, and keep the rig, mileage, and Section 179 records that hold up at tax time.
Points on rental and business property are prepaid interest that must be amortized per scheduled payment, not per year — $4,800 on a 20-year loan is $20 a payment, so a 3-payment first year deducts $60. Refinancing with the same lender blocks the write-off of leftover points and rolls them into the new loan's term.
A bundled dinner theater ticket is two sales — a taxable meal and an admission many states exempt from sales tax but hit with a separate admissions or amusement levy. This guide covers the three state models (split the ticket, operator-as-consumer, tax the whole bundle), the complimentary-drink rules that tax comps at your cost, and a chart of accounts that keeps ticket, bar, and deferred revenue auditable.
Norway moved mandatory B2B e-invoice issuance forward a year to January 1, 2027, with digital receipt and bookkeeping duties following on January 1, 2030.

OBBBA Section 70113 permanently repealed the moving expense deduction and the tax-free employer reimbursement for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025 — every relocation dollar, including payments made directly to vendors, is now supplemental wages, with exceptions only for active-duty military PCS moves and intelligence community personnel.
