If your inventory records haven't been updated to account for damaged, missing, or unsellable products, your books could be showing inventory that isn't actually available to sell.
And that can affect more than just your inventory reportโฆ
Your ending inventory is used to calculate your Cost of Goods Sold (COGS). If your inventory balance is too high, your COGS could be understated, which makes your business appear more profitable than it really is.
The bigger problem? You could end up paying income taxes on profits your business didn't actually earn.
That means potentially cutting a larger check to the IRS than necessary, all because your inventory records weren't accurate.
Before closing out your books for the year, compare your inventory records with what's physically on your shelves. Identify any missing, damaged, or unsellable products and make sure they're properly accounted for.

Yes, you can use your RMD to fund a 529 college savings plan. But you can't transfer the money directly from your IRA.
Here's how the process works:
1. Withdraw your required distribution into your personal bank account.
2. Account for the income taxes on the taxable portion of that withdrawal.
3. Contribute the money to your grandchild's 529 plan.
Once the money is in the 529, it can grow without annual taxes on investment earnings, and withdrawals for qualified education expenses are tax-free.
If you're thinking about using your 2026 RMD to contribute to your grandchild's college savings, send us a message.
We can help you structure your transfer so you avoid triggering gift tax filings and maximize state tax deductions you might qualify for.
