Document Summary

Inventories are assets consisting of goods owned by the business and held for resale or for future use in the manufacturing of goods for sale. The fundamental issue for financial reporting purposes is determining the value of items in inventory vs. the amount in cogs. Cogs = beginning inventory + purchases ending inventory. Purchases should include costs of the goods plus all costs required to obtain physical possession and to put the merchandise in saleable condition. Two types of inventory: merchandising inventories: physical form of the goods is not altered prior to the sale. Cost = purchase price + [taxes, duties, freight, storage, insurance during transit, etc] . [discounts & allowances, purchase returns, purchase discounts: manufacturing inventories: physical form of the goods is altered prior to the sale. Typically include three categories: (1) (2) work-in-process inventory (3) Cost = raw materials + direct labor cost + indirect factory costs (e. g. , electricity, depreciation of equipment & building, supervisory salaries, suppliers, etc)
