Question

Can "Office Expenses" include Shipping Fees?

I've been entering my eBay shipping expenses in the "Office Expenses" category and under the "Description" box specifying "eBay Shipping" for my business the past couple years. I now realize that is the wrong area to enter it (at least this is what I believe). Should I continue entering it this way on my 2022 taxes to say consistent or put it where it belongs (in the "Other Miscellaneous Expense" area)?

    You should move it to the Other Miscellaneous Expenses so that it gets reported correctly.  Just keep your records together so you remember that you put them in Office Expenses in the past.  This will not affect your taxes since either category is a deductible expense.
