The Trading Stock Report is an Australia-specific report that provides a detailed breakdown of your trading stock when operating as a business.

Choosing How to Calculate Opening and Closing Stock Values

Crypto Tax Calculator (CTC) lets you choose how asset values are calculated in your Trading Stock Report to suit your needs. If you’re unsure which option to use, you can stick with the default method or consult a local tax professional.

Report Summary

At the top of the Trading Stock Report, you’ll see a summary divided into the following sections:

Disposals

The total value of all disposals (including sales, fees, and more) during the selected report period.

Disposals = Total 'Sales'

Opening Value

The total value of all assets held at the beginning of the selected report period.

Opening Value = Total ('Opening Stock Quantity' x 'Opening Price')

Acquisitions

The total value of all purchases made during the selected report period.

Acquisitions = Total 'Purchases'

Closing Value

The total value of all assets held at the end of the selected report period.

Closing Value = Total ('Closing Stock Quantity' x 'Closing Price')

Cost Of Sale

Cost of Sales = 'Opening Value' + 'Acquisitions'-'Closing Value'

Net Profit

'Net Profit' = 'Disposals' - 'Cost of Sales'

Trading Report Summary

Below the summary page, you’ll find the raw data that forms the basis of this report. This section includes all the details that make up the summary at the top. Each row represents an asset held during your specified reporting period, with the data broken down into eight columns:

Currency

The asset that was held during the specified reporting period.

Opening Price

The price of the asset at the start of the reporting period, based on the selected method.

Opening Value

Opening Value = 'Opening Price' x 'Opening Stock Quantity'

Purchases

The total value of the asset acquired during the specified reporting period.

Sales

The total value of all disposals (including sales, fees, and more) during the selected report period.

Closing Price

The price of the asset at the end of the reporting period, based on the selected method.

Closing Value

Closing Value = 'Closing Price' x 'Closing Stock Quantity'

Net profit

Net Profit = (Closing Value - Opening Value) + ('Sales' - 'Purchases')

Trading Report Balances

As you scroll further down the report, the inventory balances section is divided into five columns, detailed below:

Currency

The asset that was held during the specified reporting period.

Opening Stock Quantity

The quantity of the asset that was held at the start of the reporting period.

Acquired Stock Quantity

The quantity of the asset that was acquired during the reporting period.

The quantity of the asset that was disposed of during the reporting period.
