Thanks guys.
The recent issue will be solved when the credit card statement gets entered.

I will resolve the 2003 issue (a $70 40Gb disk - not likely to be 
selling any more of those) by "purchasing" a $0 item.
The sales tax statement for the year shows that we already accounted for 
the item so the State should be happy.
The COGS was correctly identified by the system so I think the P/L 
should stay the same too.
