I use cash method on my tax return, can i deduct all inventory cost at the same tax year of purchase instead of waiting the inventory is sold. If so, should i use the cost of goods sold form, or deduct them as "Other deductions"

I use cash method on my tax return, can i use accrual method for inventory (use cost of goods sold form, Beginning inventory + Purchase - ending inventory) ? Thanks

Triplicate question.
