💡 HVAC Contractor Tax Tip of the Week
Are you deducting the cost of inventory and parts correctly?
Many HVAC contractors carry thousands of dollars in furnaces, condensers, heat pumps, ductwork, and replacement parts. Improperly tracking inventory can lead to inaccurate financial statements and costly tax mistakes.
A few best practices:
✔ Track inventory separately from job expenses
✔ Reconcile inventory counts regularly
✔ Monitor material costs by job
✔ Review gross profit margins on installations and service work
✔ Keep detailed records of all purchases and vendor invoices
Knowing your true material costs helps you price jobs more accurately, improve profitability, and avoid tax-time surprises.
