A platform deposit becomes a draft entry with the deposit, fees,
adjustments, and gross revenue (by class), refused unless gross - fees
+/- adjustments equals the deposit to the cent. The payout statement is
attached as its receipt before posting. 60 tools.

Amortization schedules spread a prepaid expense or deferred revenue over
the months it covers, to the cent, posting on month ends; runs preview
first, are idempotent, honor closed periods, and are exempt from the
receipt policy like depreciation. Recurring entries generate drafts only,
never posts. Six new tools (59 total); four new journal events, replayed
and checked.

wanderbooks is a general MCP-first accounting application: every
business needs its accounts mapped to where they land on its income tax
return, and its CPA needs book-to-tax differences surfaced, not hidden.
- ledger_core::tax: a catalog of stable categories (gross_receipts,
commissions_fees, meals, guaranteed_payments, officer_compensation,
nondeductible, ...) with kind (income, cost of goods, deduction), the
returns each appears on (Schedule C, 1065, 1120-S, 1120), a default
deductible percent (meals 50, nondeductible 0), and guidance. Keys,
not line numbers: form lines move from year to year.
- Accounts carry tax_category and an optional deductible_percent
override, validated against the account type (and the return, at the
MCP layer), journaled as account.tax_set, replayed, projected (schema
v6).
- tax_summary(start, end, form): the P&L grouped by category, book and
deductible amounts (half away from zero to the cent), contra income
(refunds) reducing receipts, and every account still uncategorized.
- MCP: books.tax_categories (filtered to the configured return),
books.set_tax_category, a tax_summary report in every format and in
the CPA package, chart output with categories, and a fifth
tax_category column in chart CSV imports, validated before anything is
created. [company] tax_form, or derived from tax_classification.
Scope stays book basis: no tax depreciation, basis, or filing.
Tests: a hand-computed quarter (50% meals 333.33 -> 166.67, penalties at
0%, refunds as negative receipts, guaranteed payments, one uncategorized
account; book net 5,276.67 vs tax 5,483.33); overrides; category/account
/return validation; form parsing and derivation; CSV parsing; stdio:
filtered catalog, mapping, refusal, summary, all-or-nothing import.

Three reports a CPA expects that the engine could not produce:
- general_ledger(start, end): the canonical general ledger, organized by
account in code order. Each account has its beginning balance, every
posting in the period (date, entry, description, debit, credit, running
balance on the normal side) and its ending balance, which ties to the
trial balance. Each posting names its split: the one account on the
opposite side of its entry, or "-Split-" when that side has several,
so a compound entry (one debit, several credits) reads correctly from
every account it touches. The entry-ordered listing the exports called a
"general ledger" is really the general journal.
- trial_balance_as_of(as_of): a trial balance is always as of a date.
- members_equity(start, end, members): the statement of changes in
members' equity for a multi-member LLC taxed as a partnership. Each
member's capital roll-forward: beginning (capital plus their share of
undistributed earnings), contributions, allocated net income (loss),
distributions, ending. Allocation is by ownership share to the cent,
the last member absorbing rounding, so totals are exact and the ending
total equals balance-sheet equity; any equity change the roll-forward
can't explain shows as "other" instead of disappearing. Shares must be
positive and sum to exactly 1; capital accounts must be distinct
equity accounts (LedgerError::InvalidMembers).
- CashFlowLine.account: the account a line is about, so renderers can
name members instead of account codes.
Tests (every expectation computed by hand): trial balance as of Jan 31;
February general ledger with beginning balances, running balances, a
card that nets to zero, an inactive account still listed, and every
ending balance tied to the trial balance; a compound entry's splits from
all three sides; a two-member partnership where 666.67 and 100.01 split
unevenly (333.34/333.33, 50.01/50.00), with and without closing January,
tying to the balance sheet each month; bad member configuration.

The engine only had life-of-ledger P&L and balance sheet totals, so every
export labeled with a date range or as-of date (PDF, XLSX, CPA package)
printed all-time numbers under that label. Core now has:
- profit_and_loss_for_period(start, end, class?) and
balance_sheet_as_of(as_of), each with a line per account
(StatementLine: code, name, normal-side amount) and exact totals.
- Ledger::closing_entry_ids(). Period statements exclude closing entries.
A close (Dr revenue / Cr expense / net to Retained Earnings, dated at
period end) moves earnings; it doesn't earn or spend. Counting it made a
closed period's P&L read as break-even, and made the cash flow show zero
net income plus a fake "owner contribution" to Retained Earnings. The
as-of balance sheet keeps closing entries: after a close the earnings
belong in Retained Earnings, not current earnings.
Tests: tests/statements.rs, a two-month fixture with every expected number
computed by hand (Jan NI 1,700; Feb 880; balance sheets on four dates; a
closed January still reporting 1,700 and a cash flow with one financing
line). Mutation-checked: dropping the closing exclusion fails it (0 vs
1,700). Properties: period P&Ls partition a year at any split, and a
range's net income equals the change in current earnings across it, with
A = L + E on both dates.
