Amazon Seller Accountant: for Cash, Clarity & Confidence
You’re making sales. Let’s make sure you’re making money too.
What Is Amazon FBA Accounting and Why Does It Matter?
Firstly, FBA means Fulfilment by Amazon. In other words, the products you are selling are packaged and delivered by Amazon.
Amazon sellers often come to us saying:
“I’m making loads of sales… but I’ve no idea where the money’s actually going.”
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Between the fees, returns, delayed payouts, inventory costs, and platform quirks – it’s no wonder it all feels like a guessing game.
At Logical BI, we simplify the numbers, cut the jargon, and help you feel fully in control of your cash… without needing a finance degree!
Common Accounting Challenges Faced by Amazon Sellers
Amazon isn’t just an online shop – it’s a complex platform with a million moving parts. And while it’s brilliant for selling at scale, it’s a nightmare for understanding your true cash position.
Here’s why:
Deferred income
Amazon often holds your sales money before releasing it. So, what you’ve sold doesn’t equal what you’ve got.
Mountains of fees
Fulfilment, referral, storage, returns, reimbursement shortfalls – it all chips away at profit.
Tricky reconciliations
What Amazon says they’ve paid you doesn’t always match what hits your bank account.
Inventory headaches
Stock in, stock out, damaged goods, removals, unsellable items – it all affects cash flow.
Correctly reporting in your accounting software
You cannot simply report your net income as the sale, you need to report sales separate to costs and don’t forget to record input and output VAT correctly too.
