Redemption of Amazon reward points

This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion explores how to account for a business laptop purchased using Amazon reward points. Since no business funds were used, the laptop is considered an asset with zero value initially. The advice suggests treating it as a personal gift, meaning no direct accounting entries are required from the business perspective, even though it's used for business purposes.

06 June 2024 No payment made for this purchase from the business account.
Account it under zero value.
