Mark Tew of Not Your Dad's CPA does taxes for resellers and sold on Amazon FBA himself for about eight years. We went through the tax questions people sent in from the Facebook groups.

We get into:

  • Why you don't need an LLC on day one, and when an S-Corp starts saving you money
  • Resale certificate vs sales tax ID vs EIN
  • Flea market cash sales and why you're still on the hook for sales tax
  • A one-time yard sale vs running a flea market out of your front yard
  • Cash vs accrual for inventory on truckloads, and writing off damaged returns
  • Home office deduction, mileage, phone and internet
  • Why donating inventory doesn't get you a write-off on the retail value
  • Moving profit out of the business and into real estate
  • Writing off travel, and quarterly estimated taxes
  • 1099 contractors vs W-2 employees
