Good day,
I have a SMLLC and have a question regarding the “Does your business have inventory or cost of goods sold?” Last year, I went with this method, but I want to make sure I am doing it correctly. For the 2022 tax year, I sold photography calendars. Under Cost of Goods Sold Line 36 I stated I spent $1000 to purchase the calendars and had an inventory cost of $40 line 39 at the end of the year, which I did not sell until 2023. Now I am doing taxes for the 2023 tax year, I spent another $1400 on calendars $1100 my cost, of which I sold in 2023, and $300 my cost of calendars in 2024.
So when doing my 2023 Taxes: Should I put $40 Line 35, $1100 Line 36, and $300 Line 41?
Second question – I purchased shipping packages/cardboard to mail the calendars – should I put that on line 38 under Costs of Good Sold or under Other Expenses?
Thank you,
Zach Vogel

Nope
line 35 and 41 are ok
line 36 is purchases for the year which you said was $1400
your cost of goods sold should be $1140 + the cost of shipping package since you are not inventorying them
$40 for the 2022 purchases sold in 2023 and $1100 for the 2023 purchases sold in 2023
I purchased shipping packages/cardboard to mail the calendars
line 38 or 39
Great, thank you. I just want to clarify two things.
Because I did not inventory the shipping supplies, they should be on line 38/39 or combined with line 36 cost so 1140+$250 in supplies. Also this will all be deducted from the $5700 I made from selling the calendars.
