============
These are some helper scripts I wrote for my usage of [ledger](http://www.ledger-cli.org).
### ldgproject
Uses [ballista](https://github.com/akerl/ballista) to generate ledger journals for the future using a simple YAML format:
```
- name: Pay Check
when:
- 15
- 30
actions:
Expenses:Taxes:federal_income: $10.00
Expenses:Taxes:va_income: $10.00
Assets:Checking:simple: $100.00
Assets:401K:Trad:palantir: $80.00
Income:Salary:palantir: $-200.00
- name: A bill
when: 2
actions:
Assets:Savings:ally: $20.00
Assets:Checking:simple: null # If you leave something null, its amount is blank in the ledger (useful to avoid repetition for simple stuff)
```
### taxcalc
Uses a yaml file explaining taxes and pointing at Ledger account names to project tax burden and compare against withholdings. My YAML file:
```
taxable:
- Income:Salary:palantir
- Income:Bonus:palantir
deductions:
- name: Expenses:Commute:metro
- name: Assets:401K:Trad:palantir
from:
- federal_income
- va_income
- name: Standard Federal Deduction
amount: 6300
from: federal_income
- name: Standard VA Deduction
amount: 3000
from: va_income
- name: Personal Federal Deduction
amount: 4050
from: federal_income
- name: Personal VA Deduction
amount: 930
from: va_income
brackets:
federal_income:
- rate: .10
starts: 0
- rate: .15
starts: 9276
- rate: .25
starts: 37651
- rate: .28
starts: 91151
- rate: .33
starts: 190151
- rate: .35
starts: 413351
- rate: .396
starts: 415051
va_income:
- rate: .02
starts: 0
- rate: .03
starts: 3001
- rate: .05
starts: 5001
- rate: .0575
starts: 17001
medicare:
- rate: .0145
starts: 0
social_security:
- rate: .062
starts: 0
```
The taxable key is an array of ledger account names to sum as income.
Deductions is an array of hashes. Each entry should be either a ledger account name (amount will be pulled from ledger), a tax name formatted like `_tax_:va_income` (which will pull total *withholding* for that tax), or an other string (must specify an "amount" key). Specify a tax name or array of tax names as "from:" if this deduction only applies to some taxes; the default is to apply to all taxes.
The brackets key is a hash of tax names, each of which is an array of (rate, start) hashes. The start value is the dollar that *starts* that tax bracket.
