I part out 3 or so tractors each year and I am trying to figure out how to account for them as inventory on a 1040 schedule C form. It specifies that I have to account for starting and ending inventory value for unsold items each year. My problem is that I pay a single payment for the tractor and then sell it in parts over the course of a year or two. This makes it difficult or impossible to say with any accuracy what the value is of the parts I have left as unsold inventory at the end of any given calendar year. I would say realistically I may have between 1-2k in likely eventual selling prices of parts on hand, but that is the aggregate amount, not individual parts. If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it.
