General Instructions

Lines 4 and 5

Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code
unless otherwise noted.

If the taxpayer does not distinguish between
obsolescence and excess inventory reserves and lower
of cost or market write-downs in its general ledger,
report all amounts relating to these reserves on line 4
for excess inventory and obsolescence reserves.

Purpose of Form
Use Form 8916-A to provide a detailed schedule of the
amount reported on Schedule M-3 for Form 1120,
Form 1065, or 1120S for Cost of Goods Sold.

Who Must File
Form 8916-A must be filed for each separate entity
required to file Form 1120, Form 1065, or Form 1120S
Schedule M-3. In the case of a consolidated tax group,
a Form 8916-A must be filed as part of the Schedules
M-3 prepared for the parent company, each subsidiary,
the eliminations Schedule M-3, and the consolidated
Schedule M-3. It is not required that the supporting
detail for Form 8916-A, line 6, be presented for the
eliminations Schedule M-3 or the consolidated
Schedule M-3.

How to File
Attach Form 8916-A to each separate Schedule M-3.

Line 6
Attach a schedule that separately states and
adequately discloses the nature and amount of each
expense reported on this line. See instructions for
Schedule M-3 for a definition of “separately stated and
adequately disclosed.” It is not required that the
supporting detail for Form 8916-A, line 6, be presented
for the eliminations Schedule M-3 or the consolidated
Schedule M-3. Report differences between book
inventory costs and section 471 inventory costs on this
line.

Line 7
Report all other items with no differences on this line.
For example, if book inventory costs equal section 471
inventory costs, this line should report total book
inventory and section 471 inventory costs without
regard to amounts reported on lines 1 through 5.

Specific Instructions

Line 8

A corporation is not required to complete columns (a)
and (d) if the corporation is not required to complete
these columns on Schedule M-3. See Schedule M-3
instructions for Part II and III.
Columns (b) and (c) must be completed for any tax
year for which the corporation files Form 8916-A.

Line 8 should equal the amount reported on the
applicable Form 1120 Schedule M-3, Part II, line 17;
Form 1120S Schedule M-3, Part II, line 15; or Form
1065 Schedule M-3, Part II, line 15.

Line 1
Report differences attributable to cost flow
assumptions, for example, differences between book
and tax LIFO computations. Generally, differences in
the LIFO reserves for book and tax purposes should
be reported on this line.

Line 2
Report differences attributable to section 263A. For
example, if book inventory costs equal section 471
inventory costs, report differences between section
471 inventory costs and section 263A inventory costs.
This includes all costs of goods sold differences, not
just differences attributable to additional section 263A
costs adjustments to ending inventory. LIFO taxpayers
using the simplified production method or the
simplified resale method should report the amount of
additional section 263A costs computed after LIFO
computations. LIFO taxpayers not using a simplified
section 263A method should report costs attributable
to additional section 263A prior to performing LIFO
computation. Differences due to purchasing, and
storage and handling costs, should generally be
reported on line n (to the extent not already included in
lines a through m). Report the additional section 263A
costs adjustments to ending inventory on line n (and
the reversal of the prior year ending inventory, if
applicable).
