I got 1099K from PayPal, but turbo-tax is calculating that my 1099K as net income.

how do i deduct cost of goods? All other deductions available to me are expenses like car expenses, home office, etc. All of which have maximums and are not significant compared to my COGs, which are about 80% of my 1099k. I also had w2 wages, so i am using turbo tax deluxe, am I on the correct page?

Also, when i log in, there are no options for business or anything like that.
