I have sold on eBay a few durable but relatively inexpensive items used by my solo business. When I originally bought them, they were expensed immediately in my accounting, not depreciated.

How do I account for the income I receive from these sales for the purposes of income tax --- do I have short / long term considerations, and capital vs ordinary income considerations. I'm not even sure which tax form I should be researching. Thanks for any guidance!

Logically, if you expensed the items on purchase then sold them later the entire proceeds of the sale would be income. And its just sales revenue (ordinary income) , no long -short - capital issues.
