Cost of goods sold (COGS) refers to the direct costs of producing the goods sold by a company. This amount includes the cost of the materials and labor directly used to create the good. It excludes indirect expenses, such as distribution costs and sales force costs.
Supplies are the stuff used up in getting the work done or stuff turned over to the client.

My question is answer the question. This a 2024 return and there is no place to enter $25000 of building supplies.
How you enter the supplies depends on the type of supplies and how they are used in the business.
If the building supplies are material used in the construction of property that you track from year to year, you can enter them in the Materials and Supplies section under Inventory and Cost of Goods Sold, as shown in the screenshot earlier in this thread.
If these are miscellaneous supplies that are used up over the course of the year, then you can enter them under the Business Expenses section as Supplies.
