Old expenses
Asked onThursday, March 07, 2024 by DianeI just officially filed paperwork as an llc (beginningof year). I primarily resale clothing and have old inventory from purchases made many years ago (may or may not have intended to sell at the time). I am wondering if it's worth it to list them for sale or deduct as a loss. Many items are older purchases that I likely do not have receipts or statements anymore. - Can I still sell them and if so, and do not have the receipt and or debit/credit card statement, how do I expense them? And should I expect to get taxed for the net amount of the sale at today's cost? - Is there a way to calculate amortization for items more than a year old (with or without the receipts)? - What is the impact of writing them off as a loss if I choose to not sell and do not have the receipts/statements? Thank you.
requirements for hiring my child via sole prop
Asked onThursday, March 07, 2024 by MJMy single member LLC does not run a payroll system. My 15 yr old child was hired with clear job description, time sheets and over the span of 2023, he was paid from LLC’s bank account directly to his personal bank account. He earned less than the standard deduction amount. He did not get a w-2 nor a 1099. Is it ok for the LLC (single member is parent) to direct deposit to child’s bank account without a payroll system? Additionally, can I show the child wages deduction on my tax return as “outside services” on schedule C without having filed a w2 or 1099?

Deducting Advisor Fees
Asked onWednesday, March 06, 2024 by MichaelI'm finding conflicting information about whether I can deduct my tax advisor fees on my IL tax return. I realize that after 2017 you can no longer do that FEDERALLY, but I am wondering about on my STATE return specifically. I called Turbotax and the rep chatted with a CPA who was finding conflicting information on this in her research. The Turbotax software has a section for IL that says "you can reduce your Illinois income by the amount of expenses used to maintain investments that are not subject to tax on your federal return, but are taxable in Illinois. Also, include expenses you couldn't deduct on your federal return because you took a federal credit related to those expenses." So if I paid a 1% fee to my financial advisor to manage a traditional IRA and a 1% fee to manage a separate roth IRA are those management fees deductible? If so is that total amount what I would enter in this section? Thank you!

What state should I incorporate a new business in?
Asked onTuesday, March 05, 2024 by TeresaI am based in Seattle, WA, but am opening an import/export business, planning to ship an existing product globally out of Guatemala. The product itself will never need to come in to/through the US, but I would like to be able to pay employees from the US and do other banking from the US. I am interested in advice on which US state to incorporate this new business in, given the different tax implications of all the different states. Thanks
