Struggling with the balance act

So I am struggling with my organization and my list of projects. I run a tax office that also does car insurance and immigration paperwork.

Paying to submit invoice to client

We have a client that would like us to submit invoices using a 3rd party software. It makes their life easier but then we are required to pay a fee to submit invoices to them (a couple bucks per invoice, and they have multiple locations/accounts, so that might be 10-ish invoices a month). I don't want to lose the client, but I don't really want to pay this fee, either. I haven't pushed back - yet - but I want to know if I am out of line by resisting this process. If not, any suggestions on how to handle this diplomatically?

New business unlikely to generate income for 3-4 years question.

Need some help but not sure where to turn. I'm starting a sole proprietorship business that is unlikely to start generating income for 3-4 years. Luckily for me I have a great paying job that I intend to keep until I retire in 10-11 years, so living expenses and funding this small business is not an issue. My question revolves around hiring my children. If I am burning money say for 3 years straight and I pay them say 6k a year, does this reduce my taxable income that I generate from my main employer? Or is there no personnel benefit of employing my children beyond saving money for them in a Roth IRA until I start making money.

Business credit card for new business

Hey everyone, My wife and I just started a marketing consultant firm in April 2021. We made a credit card for business expenses only, however, we made it a personal/consumer credit card, not knowing there were actual credit cards for businesses.

Subtracting Inventory Cost From Deliverable Service

I'm not sure how to word this really - I'm no CPA. I install raised beds that I build from scratch. The total material cost of the delivered product is \~300, but because I have to buy larger qtys of things like screws, sheet metal, wood and such, I end up with a "leftover" inventory cost of $164. Now I can eventually use those materials so it's not a deal breaker, but how should I keep track of that from an accounting standpoint, and how would factor that into pricing if at all? At what point do I add the extra materials to an "inventory" account vs just recording the purchase as COGS?
