My ending inventory for 2018 is different than my beginning inventory for 2019.

I'm an independent book publisher. I sold all copies of one book and had to print more. Thus my ending inventory for 2018 is different than my beginning inventory for 2018. After entering this information I added the explanation for the difference in inventory. I then entered the cost of goods sold for 2018. But it doesn't show up. I still had a cost of goods sold for books sold in 2018.

This is how it works for Cost of Goods Sold:

Beginning Inventory                                       $1,000

Cost to print more books                                10,000

                                                                        11.000

Ending Inventory                                          -    2,000

Costs of Goods Sold                                       $9,000

You would let TurboTax calculate the cost of goods sold by putting in purchases, beginning and ending inventory

That makes sense. An example like yours would have been helpful.
