Business justification
Food and beverage inventory is deductible as Cost of Goods Sold (COGS). Track beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory. Use FIFO, LIFO, or specific identification methods. Food waste and spoilage are part of COGS. Disposables and packaging supplies are deductible. Cleaning supplies and uniforms are ordinary business expenses. All inventory purchases must be documented with receipts and tracked properly.
