account for inventory? Inventory accounting can help your business both
save money AND increase profits. Below we’ll cover what inventory is, what it isn’t, and several of the benefits of accounting for your inventory properly.
What is inventory?
Inventory
comes in many shapes and sizes depending on the type of company you
have, there are three main types of inventory: Merchandise you sell,
Products your business installs, and Goods you create or manufacture.
What is NOT inventory?
Equipment and supplies needed to run your company are NOT inventory, instead these are usually counted as Assets or Expenses.
Why is it important to account for inventory properly?
First
and foremost, when you understand how much inventory you have, how much
it cost you, how much you’re selling it for, and when it’s selling- you
can gain insights to help you make smarter business decisions. Working
out your profit margins will help you figure out which products are
earning you the most money and which products just aren’t worth the
hassle. Keeping track of your inventory can help you decide which
products to focus on, which enables you to grow your business.
Inventory
Accounting can also help you understand seasonal sales cycles- what
sells better in summer versus winter. You want to have enough stock to
meet the needs of your customer bases, especially on your most popular
items but not so much that your cash flow is tied up in items that your
customers won’t want more of for several months.
