<p>[QUOTE="statequarterguy, post: 1861145, member: 21782"]Keep your business and personal purchases, expenses and sales separate. You can deduct the cost of a coin you purchased for your business to compute your business income when you sell the coin, before it's sold the cost is added to your inventory. This way your income is matched to your expenses. You can deduct the cost of a coin you purchased for personal use when you sell it, but you'd compute a capital gain or loss separate from your business. This is the way it works, in general, but there are caveats. For example, you may wish to contribute a coin you purchased for personal use to your business for resale. Based on your questions, you need to do some reading and/or hire an accountant. Try starting with IRS Publication 334 for your business and Publication 17 for your individual taxes, both available online at IRS.gov.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
