Hello, my client has two LLCs, she created one LLC for the purpose of buying inventories and the other LLC she uses as the business to sell her products. For this situation, how can she deduct the inventory expenses on her tax return? and for the other LLC that has no income generated, what should she do about it? Thank you

Are these Single Member LLCs that have not made an election to be taxed as a corporation?

If that is the case, they are "disregarded" for income tax purposes.  That would mean that for income tax purposes, SHE bought inventory and SHE sold the products.  It would all be one business.

Yes, she is a single llc member, however she has two llcs. So she can just treat it as one business?

so I have to file 2 LLCs tax returns but her other LLC generates no income only inventory expenses. How could I do that? thank you


but her other LLC generates no income only inventory expenses

That is just NOT possible in the real tax world run by the IRS.  

Again, I ask (..on the other thread) - WHO came up with this hare-brained scheme and WHY?
