LLM inference is a variable cost of delivering your product, not software overhead — ICONIQ's 2026 data puts AI product gross margins at a 52% industry average, well below the 70-80% typical of traditional SaaS.
MiniMax's first annual report as a listed company shows FY2025 revenue of $79.0M (+158.9% YoY) and gross margin up to 25.4%, alongside an IFRS net loss of $1.87B — but $1.59B of that loss is a non-cash fair-value remeasurement of convertible redeemable preferred shares that converted to equity at the January 9, 2026 Hong Kong listing. Adjusted net loss grew only 2.7%, from $244.2M to $250.9M. A public Beancount ledger of FY2022–FY2025 shows exactly where the paper loss sits and why it disappears in FY2026.
NVIDIA's Q1 FY2027 revenue hit $81.6B (+85% YoY) and net income $58.3B (+211%), but $15.9B of that profit came from marking up its equity portfolio, not selling chips — core net income is closer to $42.4B. The quarter also retired the five-segment breakout for two platforms, Data Center (92% of revenue) and Edge Computing. Full income statement and balance sheet, FY2024–Q1 FY2027, in a public Beancount ledger.
Authors receiving publisher AI-licensing checks — including payouts from Anthropic's roughly $1.5 billion author settlement — should verify their contract grants those rights, confirm they're getting the Authors Guild-recommended 75-85% split, and report the income on Schedule C as self-employment income, not Schedule E.
Intuit's 2026 AI Impact Report finds 77% of small businesses now use AI regularly, but bookkeeping trails marketing and customer service in adoption because owners cite privacy, accuracy, and trust as the top barriers.
Xero's JAX AI agent enters Microsoft 365 Copilot in public preview August 2026, bringing live accounting data into Excel tables and Copilot Chat while keeping data session-only and excluded from AI model training.
Приходите на Microsoft за FY2026 Q3 нараснаха с 18,3% до $82,9 млрд., докато Azure ускори отново до 40% ръст, а капиталовите разходи се движат към близо $190 млрд.
SpaceX's IPO filing shows FY2025 revenue of $18.7B (+33%) and a $4.9B net loss — Starlink earned a $4.4B operating profit at a 38.8% margin while the AI segment (X and xAI) lost $6.4B on $3.2B of revenue and consumed $12.7B of capex. A bull-vs-bear analysis backed by an open double-entry Beancount ledger covering FY2023 through Q1 2026.
Claude, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor subscriptions are fully deductible under IRC Section 162 as ordinary business expenses, while Section 174 R&D amortization only applies to labor and compute tied to genuine new product development — and the 2025 One Big Beautiful Bill Act restored immediate deduction for domestic R&E costs.
The IRS's February 2026 policy, IRM 10.24.1, formalizes how AI models — now running 126 active projects across six annual cycles — flag small business and self-employed returns for audit, requiring mandatory human review before any AI referral becomes an examination.
Two ISO endorsements effective January 2026 — CG 40 47 and CG 40 48 — carve AI-related bodily injury, property damage, and advertising injury claims out of standard general liability policies, while 74% of small businesses already use AI tools. This guide covers what the exclusions remove, why the Air Canada chatbot ruling makes customer-facing AI the biggest exposure, and the two paths back to coverage: write-back endorsements and standalone AI liability policies.
LLM-based receipt scanners read crumpled and faded receipts far better than template OCR, but when a field is ambiguous they can hallucinate a plausible wrong total instead of leaving it blank. What accuracy benchmarks actually show, the IRS's $75 receipt threshold and lodging exception, and a weekly review workflow that catches confident errors before they hit your books.
