What would I need for a general ledger for a sole proprietership?

I'm trying to make up an excel template/spreadsheet for a friend who's going to be renting a stall in a hair salon and running her own show. She is getting her business license as a sole proprietership.

She won't be selling product, essentially just collecting labor and spending money for supplies and also her paycheck!

How would I go about laying this out so it'll be easy to do quick entry in a spreadsheet for each month?

I figure I could make a P&L tab as well and have everything calculate for that??

Thank you!

    Tell her to just use quickbooks starter edition - it is cheap and works well.

    I agree with Tim. Entry level editions of Quickbooks' are very easy to set up. And being recognized by accountants, all your friend needs to do at year end is take a backup copy and he can generate what ever he needs from that.
