Year-end stock report for the balance sheet.
On 31 December, stock at cost goes on the books. Periodic count or perpetual via POS. Also assess 'slow-moving': aged or unsellable should be written down.
Try this first
- 1Schedule the count on or just after 31 December, not late November.
- 2Pull stock-at-cost from POS, not sale price.
- 3Assess slow-moving: aged, damaged, out of season.
- 4Send the export to your accountant with count photos as evidence.
