    What to do with unsold Inventory?

    Thank you to everyone who has ever answered my ???? I really feel dumb at times!

    My client, a sole prop, has been a quilting shop business person for five years. The end of 2005, went out of business and has inventory (yard goods/material) on hand, that DID NOT SELL during a Close Out Sale.

    Can client deduct leftover inventory? Where? Or is it a personal loss?
    Thank you again to all who give me directions in this matter!!!!!

    I am assuming the method you have for valuation is cost.

    If she kept it no deduction. If she disposed of it=loss. If she donated it=charitable contribution.
