Business trip expenses

Accounting
1

Hi,
I have a limited company and as part of my first contract, my client has asked me to work 3 weeks in their headquarters based in Malta. They are taking care of the accommodation and flights but nothing else.
I have kept receipts of all the food I bought with my business bank account in the supermarket for the coming weeks and some meals outside. I also had to get some cash out as some places only accepted cash.

  • What category do I put the supermarkets costs and the meals as an expense?
  • What category do I put the cash withdrawal?
    Thanks for your help,
    Greg

Cash withdrawal can be tagged to petty cash account and from there cash spending can be tagged to travel and subsistence, same for expenses from bank on meals etc

Thanks! But some transactions are made from my debit card. Under what category should I put the supermarket under?

travel and subsistence will do
