How to create outlook signature
all right everybody welcome to another youtube video today i'm going to talk about inventory and before i go any further there are four simple things i want you to do sorry if you get enjoyment out of my videos number one like this video to subscribe to the channel three share with your friends and then lastly hit the bell so you get alerted when new content comes out so we're going to talk about inventory and for those of you that don't know what inventory is inventory is when you sell a product or when you purchase a product and you intend for it to be resold so you might buy um some boxes for example and then you turn around and resell them and hopefully you make a profit what people don't understand is is that inventory is not deductible for tax purposes until you sell it so let's use an example here and let's say you will say you here sorry i'm in the way you you buy a thousand boxes for one dollar each in this case a lot what a lot of people will say is oh i can write that off my taxes no no no you can't because what happened is you took cash you paid a thousand dollars but you got boxes so you got it at you traded an asset cash for another asset inventory that you can sell and make money on and so let's say you take this let's say you sell you know 500 at five dollars each so you sell 500 at five dollars each so what this means now is that you're going to have you're going to take for your profit your profit is going to be your sales which is 500 times 25 2500. minus the cost to sell this your cost of goods sold so 500 times a dollar you sold 500 you paid a dollar for them so this would be 500. and this is what goes on your tax return and so this is important to remember because a lot of people think that they can go and write all this off but you can't you could only write off what you actually sold now from a practicality standpoint if you have small items or the amounts are immaterial to your return you know maybe you go ahead and write it off i would document that that's your position just in case you do get audited you want to make sure that you're covering yourself on that but at the end of the day this is key you want to make sure that you are not fully writing off inventory that you have not sold yet and again hopefully this is a quick video today but i just wanted to make this very clear um i do plan on talking about this with house flipping and doing doing a separate video for that but if you have any questions feel free to drop them in the comments you can follow me on instagram and twitter and ask there as well and hopefully you guys will all have a fantastic day take
