Buying assets with a finance agreement
«

I've just bought a phone on finance. Suppose I intend to keep it for two years, and the monthly repayments are for twenty months. How should I record it in tr.en.d? Should I record it as a recurring monthly expense, with a one month period of influence? Or should I create a new account to represent the loan, add the full cost of the phone as an expense to the loan account (with 2 year period of influence), and then set up a recurring movement of funds into the loan account to represent the repayments?

The second option is preferable, it captures the essence of the deal more precisely. It is not necessary to open a new account for each such case, it is quite possible to have a general account that keeps all the small loans.
