INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC
INTRODUCTION
Inventories constitute the most significant part of current assets of a large majority of companies
in India. On an average, inventories are approximately 60% of current assets in public limited
companies in India. Because of the large size of inventories maintained by firms, a considerable
amount of feuds is required to be committed to them. It is therefore, absolutely imperative tomnage inventories efficiently and efficiently in order to avoid unnecessary investment. A firm
neglecting the management of inventories will be jeopardizing its long run profitability and may
fail ultimately. It is possible for fore a company to reduce its levels of inventories to aconsiderable degree e.g. 10 to 20 percent, without any adverse effect on production and sales, by
using simple inventory planning and control techniques. The reduction in excessive inventory
carries a favorable impact on a companys profitability.
MEANING OF INVENTORY:-
Inventory is the physical stoke of goods maintained in an organization for its smooth sunning. In
accounting language it may mean stock of finished goods only. In a manufacturing concern, it
may includes raw materials, work-in-progress and stores etc. In the form of materials or suppliesto be consumed in the production process or in the rendering of services. In brief, Inventory is
unconsumed or unsold goods purchased or manufactured.
NATURE OF INVENTORIES:-
Inventories are stock of the product a company is manufacturing for sale andcomponents that make up the product. The various forms in which
inventory exist in a manufacturing company are raw materials, work in
progress and finished goods.
RAW MATERIALS:-
Raw materials are those inputs that are converted into finished product though the manufacturing
process. Raw materials inventories are those units which have been purchased and stored for
future productions.
WORK IN PROGRESS:-
These inventories are semi manufactured products. They represent products that need more work
before they become finished products for sales.

FINISHED GOODS:-
Finished goods inventories are those completely manufactured products whichare ready for sale.
Stock of raw materials and work in progress facilitate production. While stock of finished goods
is required for smooth marketing operation. Thus, inventories serve as a link between theproduction and consumption of goods. The level of three kinds of inventories for a firm depend
on the nature of its business. A manufacturing firm will have substantially high levels of all three
kinds of inventories, while a retail or wholesale firm will have a very high and no raw materialand work in progress inventories. Within manufacturing firms, there will be differences. Large
heavy engineering companies produce long production cycle products, therefore they carry large
inventories. On the other hand, inventories of a consumer product company will not be large,because of short production cycle and fast turn over. Firms also maintain a fourth kind of
inventory, supplies or stores and spares.
SUPPLIES:
It includes office and plant cleaning materials like soap, brooms, oil, fuel, light, bulbs etc. Thesematerials do not directly enter production, but are necessary for production process. Usually,
these supplies are small part of the total inventory and do not involve significant investment.
Therefore, a sophisticated system of inventory control may not be maintained for them.
MANAGEMENT OF INVENTORY
Inventories constitute the principal item in the working capital of the majority of trading andindustrial companies. In inventory, we include raw materials, finished goods, work-in-progress,
supplies and other accessories. To maintain the continuity in the operations of businessenterprise, a minimum stock of inventory required. However, the physical control of inventory isthe operating responsibility of stores superintendent and financial personnel have nothing to do
about it but the financial control of these inventories in all lines of activity in which they
comprise a substantial part of the current assets is a frequent problem in the management ofworking capital. Management of inventory is designed to regulate the volume of investment in
goods on hand, the types of goods carried in stock to meet the needs of production, and sales
while at the same time, the investment in them is to be kept at a reasonable level.
CONCEPT OF INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
The term inventory management is used in two ways- unit control and value control. Productionand purchase officials use this word in term unit control whereas in accounting this word is used
in term of value control. As investment in inventory represents in many cases, one of the largest
asset items of business enterprises particularly those engaged in manufacturing, wholesale tradeand retail trade. Sometimes the cost of material used in production surpasses the wages and
production overheads. Hence, the proper management and control of capital invested in the
inventory should be the prime responsibility of accounting department because resourcesinvested in inventory are not earning a return for the company. Rather, on the other hand, they
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
4/43
are costing the firm money both in terns of capital costs being incurred and loss of opportunity
income that is being foregone.
OBJECTIVES OF INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
The basic managerial objectives of inventory control are two-fold; first, the avoidance over-investment or under-investment in inventories; and second, to provide the right quantity of
standard raw material to the production department at the right time. In brief, the objectives of
inventory control may be summarized as follows:
A. Operating Objectives:
(1) Ensuring Availability of Materials: There should be a continuous availability
of all types of raw materials in the factory so that the production may not be help
up wants of any material. A minimum quantity of each material should be held in
store to permit production to move on schedule.
(2) Avoidance of Abnormal Wastage: There should be minimum possible
wastage of materials while these are being stored in the godowns or used in the
factory by the workers. Wastage should be allowed up to a certain level known as
normal wastage. To avoid any abnormal wastage, strict control over the inventory
should be exercised. Leakage, theft, embezzlements of raw material and spoilage
of material due to rust, bust should be avoided.
(3) Promotion of Manufacturing Efficiency: If the right type of raw material is
available to the manufacturing departments at the right time, their manufacturing
efficiency is also increased. Their motivation level rises and morale is improved.
(4) Avoidance of Out of Stock Danger: Information about availability of
materials should be made continuously available to the management so that they
can do planning for procurement of raw material. It maintains the inventories at the
optimum level keeping in view the operational requirements. It also avoids the out
of stock danger.
(5) Better Service to Customers: Sufficient stock of finished goods must be
maintained to match reasonable demand of the customers for prompt execution oftheir orders.
(6)Highlighting slow moving and obsolete items of materials.
(7) Designing poorer organization for inventory management: Clear cut
accountability should nbe fixed at various levels of organization.

B. Financial Objectives:
(1) Economy in purchasing: A proper inventory control brings certain advantages
and economies in purchasing also. Every attempt has to make to effect economy in
purchasing through quantity and taking advantage to favorable markets.
(2) Reasonable Price: While purchasing materials, it is to be seen that right
quality of material is purchased at reasonably low price. Quality is not to be
sacrificed at the cost of lower price. The material purchased should be of the
quality alone which is needed.
(3) Optimum Investing and Efficient Use of capital: The basic aim of inventory
control from the financial point of view is the optimum level of investment in
inventories. There should be no excessive investment in stock, etc. Investment in
inventories must not tie up funds that could be used in other activities. Thedetermination of maximum and minimum
level of stock attempt in this direction.
TYPES OF INVENTORY
1. Movement Inventories :-
Movement inventories are also called transit or pipeline inventories. Their
existence owes to the fact that transportation time is involved in transferring
substantial amount of resources.
2.Buffer inventories:-
In Buffer inventories are held to protect against the uncertainties of demand
and supply. An organization generally knows the average demand for various
items that it needs. Prod. deptt. issue store inspect receive supplier

3. Anticipation Inventories.
-

6/43
Anticipation inventories are held for the reason that future demand for the product
is anticipated. Production of specialized times like crackers well before dewily,
umbrellas and raincoats before taints set in, fans while summers are approaching;
or the piling up of inventory stocks when a
strike is on the anvil, are all examples of anticipation inventories.
CONTROL OF MATERIALS :
Rigid control over materials are necessary not only to guard against theft, but also
to minimize waste and misuse from causes such as excessive inventories, over
issue, deterioration, spoilage, and obsolescence. There are certain prerequisites to
an effective control system for materials:
1.Materials of the desired quantity will be available when needed;
2.Materials will be purchased only when a need exists and in economical qualities;
3.Purchases of materials will be made at most favorable prices;
4.Vouchers for the payments of materials purchased will be approved only if thematerials have been received in good condition;
5.Materials will be protected against loss by proper physical control;
6.Issue of materials will be properly authorized and accounted for; and
7.All materials, at all times, will be charged, as the responsibility of some
individual.
The control of materials, as an element of cost of production, is illustrated with
reference to the purchase and issues procedures, inventory systems, and inventory
control techniques.
IMPORTANCE OF INVENTORY CONTROL:
The importance or necessity of inventory control is well explained in the terms of
the objects of inventory control, which are obtained through it. A proper inventory
control lowers down the cost of production and improves profitability of
enterprise.
ADVANTAGES OF INVENTORY CONTROL:
(1) Reduction in investment in inventory.
(2) Proper and efficient use of raw materials.(3) No bottleneck in production.
(4) Improvement in production and sales.
(5) Efficient and optimum use of physical as well as financial resources.
(6) Ordering cost can be reduced if a firm places a few large orders in place of
numerous small orders.

(7) Maintenance of adequate inventories reduces the set-up cost associated with
each production run.
Risk and cost Associated with Inventories:
Holding of Inventories expose the firm to a number of risks and costs.
Major risks are:
(a) Price decline: They may be due to increase in market supply of the product,
introduction of a new competitive product, price-cut by the competitors etc.
(b) Product deterioration: This may due to holding a product for too long a
period or improper storage conditions.
(c) Obsolescence: This may due to change in customers taste, new production
technique, improvements in product design, specifications etc.
The Costs of holding inventories are as follows:
(a) Material Cost: This include the cost of purchasing the goods, transportation
and handling charges less any discount allowed by the supplier of goods.
(b) Ordering Cost: This includes the variables cost associated with placing an
order for the goods. The fewer the orders, the lower will be the ordering costs for
the firm.
(c) Carrying Cost: This includes the expenses for storing and handling the goods.
It comprises storage costs, insurance costs, spoilage costs, cost of funds tied up in
inventories etc.
ESSENTIALS OF INVENTORY CONTROL SYSTEM
For an efficient and successful inventory control there are certain important
conditions that are a follows:
(1) Classification and Identification of inventories: The usual inventory of
manufacturing firm includes raw-material, stores, work-in-progress and component
etc. To facilitate prompt recording the dealing, each item of the inventory must be
assigned a particular code number and it must be classified in suitable group or
sub-divisions. ABC analysis of material is very helpful in this context.
(2) Standardization and simplification of inventories: In order to facilitate
inventory control, the inventory line should be simplified. It refers to the
elimination of excess types and sizes of items. Simplification leads to reduction in
classification of inventories and its carrying costs. Standardization, on the other
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
8/43
hand, refers to the fixation of standards of raw material to be purchased and
specification of the components and tools to be used.
(3) Setting the Maximum and Minimum limits for each part of inventory: The
third step in this process is to set the maximum and minimum limits of each item
of the inventory. It avoids the chances of over-investment as well as running a
short of any item during the cost of producing. Reordering point should also be
fixed beforehand.
(4) Economic Order Quantity: It is also a basic inventory problem to determine
the quantity as how much to order at a time. In determining the EOQ, the problem
is one to set a balance between two opposite costs, namely, ordering costs and
carrying costs. This quantity should be fixed beforehand.
(5)Adequate storage Facilities: To make the system of inventory controlsuccessful and efficient one, it is also essential to provide the adequate storage
facilities. Sufficient storage area and proper handling facilities should be
organized.
(6)Adequate Reports and Records: Inventory control requires the maintenance of
adequate inventory record and reports. Various inventory records must contain
information to meet the needs of purchasing, production, sales and financial staff.
The typical information required
about any class of inventory may be relating to quantity on hand, location,
quantities in transit, unit cost, code for each item of inventory, reorder point, safety
level etc. Statements forms and inventory records should be so designed that the
clerical cost of maintaining these records must be kept a minimum.
(7)Intelligent and Experienced Personnel: An important requirement of
successful inventory control system is the appointment of qualified and
experienced staff in purchase and stores department. Mere establishment of
procedures and the maintenance of records would not give the desired results as
there is no substitute for sincere and devoted as well as
experienced hands. Hence, the whole inventory control structure should be manned
with trained, qualified, experienced and devoted employees.
(8)Coordination: There must be proper coordination of all departments involvedin the process of inventory control, such as purchase, finance, receiving,
approving, storage and accounting departments. These all departments have
different outlook and objects in inventory management but financial manager has
to coordinate them all.

(9)Budgeting: An efficient budgeting system is also required. Preparation of
budgets concerning materials, supplies and equipment to ensure economy in
purchasing and use of material is also necessary.
(10)Internal Check: Operating of a system of internal check is also vital in
inventory management so that all transactions involving material supplies and
equipment purchase are properly approved and automatically checked.
FACTORS AFFECTING STOCK INVESTMENT LEVEL
These factors can be put in two categories: General and Specific.
General Factors: These factors include those factors, which affect directly or
indirectly level of investment in any asset. These are as follows:
(1) Nature of Business(2) Size and scale of Business
(3) Expected Sales Volumes
(4) Price Level Changes
(5) Availability of Funds
(6) Management view Point
Specific Factors: These factors are directly related with investment in stock.
Following are the main factors:
(1) Seasonal Character of Raw Materials: If supply of raw material used in the
firm is seasonal, the firm will require more funds for the purchase of raw material
during season. Usually, raw materials are available at cheaper rates during is
production season.
(2) Length and Technical Nature of the production process: If production
process is lengthy and of technical nature, higher investment is required in raw
material. In the technical nature production process, quality control of raw material
is given more emphasis.
(3) Terms of Purchase: If some concessions or discount in price or facilities of
credit are provided by suppliers on purchase of raw materials in huge quantity then
the firm is inspired for excessive purchase of goods and hence comparatively more
investment is required in inventory.(4) Nature of End Product:Nature of end product also influences investment in
inventory. If the end product is a durable good, high investment will be required
because durable goods can be stored for a long period. On the other hand,
perishable goods cannot be stored for a long period. Hence, investment in
inventory of such products is low.
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
10/43
(5) Supply Conditions: If the supply of raw material is regular and there is no
possibility of interruption in future, high investment in inventories is not required.
(6) Time Factor: The lead time of raw material time token in production process
and sale of product also influence investment in inventories. Longer the period,
higher will be the investment in inventories.
(7) Loan Facilities: If raw materials are purchased on credit or loan from the bank
or other financial institution can be obtained on the security of raw material, lesser
investment would be required. In the absence of such loan facility, higher
investment would be required.
(8) Price Level Fluctuations: If there are expectations of price rise in future then
raw materials may be store in high quantity and so more investment would be
required. On the contrary, if the prices of raw materials are expected to go down in
future, then comparatively lesser investment would be required.
(9) Other factors: Price control, rationing, change in taxation and export policy of
governments etc. also influence investment in inventories.
TECHNIQUES OF INVENTORY CONTROL
TECHNIQUES OF INVENTORY CONTROL
In managing inventories, the firms objective should be in consonance with the
wealth maximization principle. To achieve this, the firm should determine the
optimum level of investment in inventory. To deal with the problems of inventory
management effectively, it becomes necessary to be conversant with the different
techniques of inventory control. Although the concepts involved in inventory
management are production-oriented and are not strictly financial it is important
that the financial manager understand them since they have certain built-in
financial costs. The different techniques of inventory control may be summarized
as follows:
(1) Inventory level Technique
The main objective of stock control is to determine and maintain the optimum level
of stock so that there is neither shortage of any material nor unnecessary
investment in inventory. For this purpose, determination of maximum and
minimum limits of inventory and ordering level is necessary.(2) Maximum stock Limit: This represents the quantity of inventory above which
it should not be allowed to be kept. The main object of fixing this limit is to ensure
that unnecessary working capital is not blocked in stores. The quantity is fixed
keeping in view the disadvantages of overstocking.
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
11/43
The disadvantages of overstocking are:
1. Capital is blocked up unnecessarily in stores so there will be loss of interest.
2. More godown space is needed so more rent will have to be paid.
3. There are chances of deterioration in quality because large stocks will require
more time for use is the factory.
4. There is the possibility of loss due to obsolescence.
5. There is danger of depreciation in market values.
The maximum stock level is fixed by taking into account the following
factors:
(1) Amount of capital available for maintaining stores.
(2) Godown space available.
(3) Rate of consumption of the material.
(4) The time lag between indenting and receiving of the material.
(5) Length and technical nature of the production process.(6) Possibility of loss in stores by deterioration, evaporation etc.
There are certain stores, which deteriorate in quality if they are stored
for longer period.
(7) Cost of maintaining stores.
(8) Likely fluctuation in prices. For instance, if there is a possibility of a substantial
increase in prices in the coming period, a comparatively large maximum stock
level will be fixed. On the other hand, if there is the possibility of decrease in price
in the near future, stocks are kept at a much reduced level.
(9) The seasonal nature of supply of material. Certain materials are available only
during specific periods of year. So these have to be stocked heavily during these
periods.
(10)Restrictions imposed by the government or local authority in regard to
materials which there are inherent risks, e.g. fire and explosion.
(11)Risk of obsolescence, i.e., possibility of change in fashion and habit which will
necessitate change in requirements of materials.
The following formula may be applied to calculate the maximum stock:
(1) Maximum Stock = Minimum Inventory + Lot size
(2) Maximum Stock = Reorder Level - Minimum consumption during Minimumlead time + Lot size
Minimum Stock Limit (Safety or Buffer stock)
This represents the quantity below which stock should not be allowed to fall. It is
maintained to save from the situation of stock out in the event of abnormal increase
in material usage rate and/or delivery period. In fact determination of this quantity
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
12/43
is significant because of uncertainty in respect to material usage rate and delivery
period. The main
purpose of this level is to ensure that production is not held up due to shortage of
any material. This level is fixed for all items of stores and following factors are
taken into account for the fixation of this level:
(a) Lead time i.e. time lag between intending and receiving the material.
(b) Rate of consumption of the material during the lead time.
(c) Re-order Level
The following formula is applied to calculate Minimum Stock:
Minimum Stock = Re-order Level - Normal usage during Normal Lead time
But if normal usage and normal lead time is not known then average usage will be
treated as normal usage and average re-order will be treated as normal re-orderperiod.
Re-ordering Level (Ordering Level)
It is the point at which if the stock of the material in stores reaches, the storekeeper
should initiate the purchase requisition for fresh supply of material. This level is
fixed somewhere between maximum and minimum level is such a way that the
difference of quantity of the material between the reordering level and the
minimum level will be sufficient to meet
requirements of production up to the time of fresh supply of the material. It is fixed
after taking into consideration the following factors:
(a) Rate of material usage: Generally this rate is found out as usage rate per day,
pre week or per month. The quantity of production fluctuates according to demand
of the product which results in variation in usage rate.
Hence, the following three factors:
(i) Maximum usage rate: It implies quantity of material required at maximum
capacity production.
(ii) Minimum usage rate: It implies quantity of material required at capacityproduction in most unfavorable business conditions.
(iii) Normal or average Usage Rate: It implies quantity of material required at
capacity production under normal business conditions.
(b) Ordering Period: The time taken in preparing the order for purchase of
material is called ordering period. In some concerns this period may be significant
but in large concerns this period is significant because before placing the order the
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
13/43
purchase manager has to trace out the best suppliers, after that only he places the
order.
Delivery, Lead or Procurement Time: The time taken from the date of placing
the order to the date of delivery by the suppliers is called procurement time. The
maximum, minimum and average procurement time should also be determined.
(D)Minimum Stock Level: This is the level of stock below which stocks should
normally not be allowed to fall.
Calculation of Re-order Point:
After taking into account the above facts re-order quantity is ascertained. For this
purpose, the following formula is applied:
Situation1:
When rate of usage and lead time are known with certainty;
Re-order point = Rate of usage x lead time.Situation2:
When rate of usage is known with certainty and lead time is also known but is
variable:
(i) Re-order point = Minimum Inventory + Average usage during Normal lead
Time.
(ii) Re-order point = Rate of usage x Maximum Lead Time.
Situation3:
When rate of usage and lead time is known but variable and lead time is known
with certainty:
(i) Re-order point = Minimum Inventory + Average usage
during lead time.
(ii) Re-order point = Maximum Usage rate x Lead time.
Situation4:
When the rate of usage and lead time are known and are variable;
(i) Re-order point = Minimum Inventory + Average usage during lead period.
(ii) Re-order point = Maximum Usage rate x Maximum Lead time.
Danger Level
This means a level at which normal issues of the material are stopped and issues
made only under specific instructions. The purchase officer will make specialarrangements to procure the materials reaching at their danger levels so that the
production may not stop due to shortage of materials. It is determined as follows:
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
14/43
Danger level = Average Consumption x Maximum Re-order period for
Emergency Purchase
ECONOMIC ORDER QUANTITY TECHNIQUE
One of the major inventory management problems to be resolved is how much
inventory should be added when inventory is replenished. If the firm is buying raw
materials, it has to decide lost in which it has to be purchased on replenishment. If
the firm is planning a production run, the issue is how much production to schedule
(or how much to make). These problems are called order quantity problems, and
the task of the firm is to determine the optimum or economic order quantity (or
economic lot size). Determining an optimum inventory level involves two type of
costs: (a) ordering costs and (b) carrying costs: The economic order quantity is that
inventory level that minimize the total of ordering and carrying costs.
Ordering costs: the term ordering costs is used in case of raw materials (or
supplies) and includes the entire costs of acquiring raw materials. They includecosts incurred in the following activities: requisitioning, purchase ordering,
transporting, receiving, inspecting and storing (store placement). Ordering costs
increase in proportion to the number of order placed. Ordering costs increase with
the number of order; thus the more frequently inventory is acquired, the higher the
firms ordering costs. Ordering costs decrease with increasing size of inventory.
Carrying costs: Costs incurred for maintaining a given level of inventory are
called carrying costs. They include storage, insurance, taxes, deterioration and
obsolescence. The storage costs comprise cost of storage space (warehousing cost),
stores handing costs and clerical and staff service costs (administrative costs).
Table: Ordering and Carrying Costs

(2)Order placing (2) Handling
(3) Transportation (3) Clerical and staff
(4) Receiving inspecting and storing (4) Insurance
(5) Clerical and staff(5) Deterioration
Obsolescence
Carrying costs vary with inventory size. The economic size of inventory wouldthus depend on trade-off between carrying costs and ordering costs.
Ordering and Carrying Costs trade-off: The optimum inventory size is
commonly referred to as economic order quantity. It is that order size at which
annual total costs of ordering and holding are the minimum. We can follow three
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
15/43
approaches-the trial and error approach, the formula approach and the graphic
approach-to determine the economic order
quantity (EOQ).
Trail and Error Approach: The trail and error, or analytical, approach to resolve
the order quantity problem can be illustrated with the help of a simple example. Let
us assume thefollowing data for a firm.
Estimated annual requirements, A 1,200 units
Purchasing cost (per order), (Rs) 50
Ordering cost (per order), (Rs.) 37.50
Carrying cost per unit, (Re) 1
Average inventory - (1200 + 0)/2 = 600 units
Average value - Rs 30,000 (600*Rs50)
If we choose the multiple order than we order 100units on monthly basis
Average inventory - (100+0)/2 = 50units)
Average value - 50 * Rs 50 = 2, 500Many other possibilities can be worked out in the same manner.

Order- formula approach: The trial error, or analytical, approach is somewhat
tedious to calculate the EOQ. An easy way to determine EOQ is to use the order-
formula approach. Let us illustrate this approach.
Suppose the ordering cost per order, O, is fixed. The total order costs will be
number of orders during the year multiplied by ordering cost per order. If a
represents total annual requirements and Q the order size, the number of orders
will be A/Q and total order costs will be:Total ordering cost = (Annual requirement * Per order cost)
Order size
TOC = AO/ Q
Let us further assume the carrying cost per unit, c, is constant The total carrying
costs will be the product of the average inventory units and the carrying cost per
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
16/43
unit. If Q is the order size and usage is assumed to be steady, the average inventory
will be.
Average inventory = order size = Q
2 2
And total carrying costs will be:
Total carrying cost = Average inventory
* Per unit carrying cost
TCC = Qc
2
The total inventory cost, then, is the sum of total carrying and ordering costs:
Total cost = Total carrying cost + Total order cost
TC = Qc + AO
2 Q
Equation (4) reveals that for a large order quantity, Q, the carrying cost willincrease, but the
ordering costs will decrease. On the other hand, the carrying costs will be lower
and ordering
cost will be higher with the order quantity. Thus, the total cost function represents
a trade-off
between the carrying costs and ordering costs for determining the EOQ.
To obtain the formula for EOQ, Equation (4)is differentiated with respect to Q and
setting the
derivative equal to zero, we obtain:
Economic order quantity = 2* quantity required * ordering cost
Carrying cost
EOQ = 2AO
C
Graphic approach :
The economic order quantity can also be found out graphically. Figure illustrates
the EOQ
function. In the figure, costs-carrying, ordering and total- are plotted on vertical
axis and
horizontal axis is used to represent the order size. We note that total carrying costsincrease as
the order size increasers, because, on an average, a larger inventory level will be
maintained, and
ordering costs decline with increase in order size means less number of orders. The
behaviors of
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
17/43
total costs line is noticeable since it is a sum of two types of cost which behave
differently with
order size. The total costs decline in the first instance, but they start rising when the
decrease in
average ordering cost is more than offset by the increase in carrying costs. The
economic order
quantity occurs at the point Q* where the total cost is minimum. Thus, the firms
operating profit
is maximized at point Q*.

size of manufacture. Two costs involved are set-up costs and carrying costs. Set-up
costs include
costs on the following activities: preparing and processing the stock orders,
preparing drawings
and specifications, tooling machines set-up, handling machines, tools, equipment
and materials,
over time etc. Production runs but carrying costs will increase as large stocks of
manufactured
inventories will be held. The economic production size will be the one where the
total of set-up
and carrying costs is minimum.
Reorder Point:
The problem, how much to order, is solved by determining the economic order
quantity, yet
answer should be sought to be second problem, when to order. This is a problem of
determiningthe reorder point. The reorder point is that inventory level at which an order
should be placed to
replenish the inventory. To determine the reorder point under certainty, we should
known: (a)
lead time (b) average usage, and (c) economic order quantity. Lead time is the
normally taken is
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
18/43
replenishing inventory after the order has been placed. By certainty we mean that
usage and lead
time do not fluctuate. Under such a situation, reorder point is simply that inventory
level which
will be maintained for consumption during the lead time. That is:
Reorder point = Lead * Average usage
Safety stock:
The demand for inventory is likely to fluctuate from time to time. In particular, at
certain
points of time the demand may exceed the anticipated level. In other words, a
discrepancy
between the assumed (anticipated/expected) and the actual usage rate of inventory
is likely to
occur in practice.
The effect of increased usage and/or slower delivery would be shortage ofinventory. That is, the
firm would disrupt production schedule and alienate the customers. The firm
would, therefore, be
will advised to keep a sufficient safety margin by having additional inventory to
guard against
stock-out situation. Such stocks are called safety stocks. This would act as a
buffer/cushion
against a possible shortage of inventory. Safety stock may, thus, be defined as
minimum
additional inventory to serve as safety margin/buffer/cushion to meet
unanticipated
increase in usage resulting form unusually high demand and/or uncontrollable
late receipt
of incoming inventory.
The carrying costs are the costs associated with the maintenance of inventory.
Since the firm is
required to maintain additional inventory, in excess of the normal usage,
additional carrying
costs are involved.The stock-out and carrying costs are counterbalancing. The larger the safety stock,
the larger the
carrying costs and vice versa. Conversely, the larger the safety stock, the smaller
the stock-out
costs.

VED Analysis: The VED analysis is used generally for spare parts. The
requirement and
urgency of spare parts is different from that of materials. A-B-C analysis may not
be properly
used for spare parts. The demand for spares depends upon the performance of the
plant and
machinery. Spare parts are classified as: Vital (V), Essential (E) and Desirable (D).The vital
spares are a must for running the concern smoothly and these must be stored
adequately. The
non-availability of vital spares will cause havoc in the concern. The E types of
spares are also
necessary but their stocks may be kept at low figures. The stocking of D types of
spares may be
avoided at times. If the lead time of these spares is less, then stocking of these
spares can be
avoided.
The classification of spares under three categories is an important decision. A
wrong
classification of any spare will create difficulties for production department. The
classification of
spares should be left to the technical staff because they know the need, urgency
and use of these
spares.
Assumptions: In applying EOQ formula, it is assumed that:
(i) Total demand is known with certainty.(ii) The usage rate of material is steady.
(iii) Orders for replenishment on inventory are placed exactly when inventories
reach
ordering level.
(iv) The ordering cost per order and holding cost per unit are constant.
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
20/43
EOQ and Total Inventory Cost: At EOQ level total inventory cost is minimum.
Total
inventory cost is the sum of material purchase cost, ordering cost and carrying cost
As per the formula:
Total Inventory Cost (TIC) = Material Purchase Cost + Total Ordering Cost +
Total
Carrying Cost
= (R x P) + (R/Po x Cp) + (Qo/2 x Ch)
Discount Offer and Economic Order Quantity:
Sometimes supplier offers different discounts on orders of large quantity. In such a
situation,
at fist we should calculate EOQ and find out TIC without considering discount
offer. Then
we should calculate TIC of each alternative offer. That quantity will be EOQ at
TIC is thelowest.
PERPETUAL INVENTORY CONTROL TECHNIQUE
Perpetual inventory system implies maintenance of up-to-date stock records and in
its
broad sense it covers both continuous stock taking as well as up-to-date recording
stores
books. According to Weldon, It may be defined as a method of recording stores
balances
after every receipt and issue to facilitate regular checking and to obviate closing
down for
sock-taking. The basic object of this system is to make available details about the
quantity
and value of stock of each item at all times. The system thus provides a rigid
control over
stock of each item of store can regularly be verified with the stock records in the
bin cards
kept in the stores and stores ledger maintained in cost office.
Advantages of Perpetual Inventory system:
1. Saving in time: The long and costly work of stocktakingis avoided. Hence, interim and final financial accounts can be prepared with
greater
convenience.
2. Arrangement of proper verification: In this system a
detailed and more reliable checking of the store is exercised because of the
continuous and
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
21/43
random checking.
3. Verification of Errors: Errors are easily located and
rectified. This gives an opportunity for preventing a recurrence in many cases.
4. Double control: Due to separate records in Bin card and
stores ledger, double control is maintained.
5. Optimum size of material: Overstocking and under
stocking can be avoided because perpetual inventory system covers verification of
stock with
regards to maximum, minimum and other levels.
6. Lack of misuse of Material: Under this system, effective
control on issue of material is possible, thus misuse of material can be avoided.
7. Moral Check on Stores staff: Due to continuous
checking, this system serves as a moral check on the stores staff. They are
discouraged from
committing dishonesty.8. Loss of stock due to obsolescence: It is detected at an
early stage and so timely action can be taken to prevent recurrence.
THE SELECTIVE INVENTORY CONTROL OR ABC SYSTEM OF
CONTROL
Most manufacturing firms find themselves confronted with virtually thousands of
different inventory items. Most of these items are relatively inexpensive, while
other items
are quite expensive and account for a large portion of the firms investment. Some
inventory
items, although not expensive, turnover slowly and therefore, they require a high
average
investment. The firm should classify them into A.B.C category items. Category A
will
include more expensive items (in cost of product) with high investment and it will
require
more intensive control.
The B group will consist of the items accounting for the next largest investment.
The C group will consist of a large number of items of inventory accounting for
smallinvestment.
The A items require intensive inventory control and most sophisticated inventory
control
techniques should be applied to these items.
The B items can be controlled using less sophisticated technique, and their level
can be
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
22/43
viewed less frequently than A items.
The C items can receive the minimum attention: they will probably be ordered in
large
quantities in order to obtain them at the lowest price.
Though the ABC technique is a good technique but it cannot be universally
applied. Certain
items of inventory may be inexpensive but may be critical to the product in process
and
cannot be easily obtained. Therefore, they may require special attention.
These types of items must be treated as A class items even though, using the
broad
framework, they would be B or C class items.
Although, not perfect, the ABC system is an excellent method for determining the
degree of
inventory control efforts required to expand each item of inventory.The following points should be kept in mind for ABC analysis:
(1) Where items can be substituted
for each other, they should be preferably treated as one item.
(2) More emphasis should be given
to the value of consumption and not to price per unit of the item.
(3) All the items consumed by an
organization should be considered together for classifying as A, B or C instead of
taking item as
spare, raw materials, semi-finished and finished items and then classifying as A, B
and C.
There can be more then three classes and the period of consumption need not
necessarily be
one year
Application of ABC Analysis:
ABC analysis can be effectively used in Material Management.
The various stages where it can be applied are:
(1) Information of items which
require higher degree of control.
(2) To evolve useful re-orderingstrategy.
(3) Stock records.
(4) Priority treatment to different
items.
(5) Determination of safety stock
items.
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
23/43
(6) Stores layout.
(7) Value analysis.
(2) Just-in-time (JIT) System:
Japanese firms popularized thejust-in-time (JIT) system in the
world. In a JIT system material or the manufactured components and part arrive to
the
manufacturing sites or stores just few hours before they are put to use. The delivery
of material is
synchronized with the manufacturing cycle and speed. JIT system eliminates the
necessity of
carrying large inventories, and thus, saves carrying and other related costs of
manufacturer. The
system requires perfect understanding and coordination between the manufacturer
and supplier
in terms of the timing of delivery and quality of the material. Poor quality materialor
complements could halt the production. The JIT inventory system complements the
total quality
management (TQM). The success of the system depends on how well a company
manages its
suppliers. The system puts tremendous pressure on suppliers. They will have to
develop adequate
system and procedures to satisfactory meet the needs of manufacturers.
System of Accounting for Material Issued/Inventory Systems
Either the periodic inventory system or the perpetual inventory system may be
used to
account for materials issued to production and ending materials inventory.
Periodic Inventory System
Under the periodic inventory system, the purchase of materials is
recorded in Purchase of Raw Materials Account. The opening/beginning
inventory, if any, is
recorded in a separate Materials Inventory- Opening Account. The materials
available for use
during a period equal purchases plus opening inventory. A physical count is madeof the
materials on hands at the end of the period to arrive at the closing/ending materials
inventory.
The cost of materials for the period is determined as shown in Exhibit:
Cost of Materials Issued
Materials inventory-opening
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
24/43
+ Purchases
= Materials available for use
- Materials inventory-closing (based on physical count)
= Cost of materials issued
The entire book inventory is verified at a given date by an actual count of materials
on hand.
This physical inventory is usually taken near the end of the accounting year/period.
This method
provides for the recording of the purchases on a daily basis but does not provide
for a continuous
inventory-taking. Neither a physical count is made of the quantity of goods on
hand, nor the
value of the inventory in determined by using an appropriate pricing method and
attaching costs
to units counted. It is assumed that goods not on hand at the end of the period havebeen sold.
There is no system and accounting period, and they can be discovered only at the
end.
INVENTORY TURNOVER RATE TECHNIQUE
One important technique of inventory control is to use inventory turn over ratios.
These
ratios are calculated to asses the efficiency in use of inventories. Following control
ratios can
be computed for inventory analysis:
(i) Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of goods sold/ Average Inventory
Where Average Inventory = (Opening Inventory + Closing Inventory)/2
Inventory Turnover Ratios ca be calculated separately for raw materials and
finished goods.
(A) Raw Material Turnover Ratio = Raw Material Consumed/ Average stock of
Raw
material.
(B) Finished Goods Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold/ Average Stock of
Finished
GoodsAverage Age of inventory of inventory Turnover in Days = Days during the
period/
Inventory Turnover Ratio
(ii) Average inventory to total cost of production = (Average Inventory/ total
cost of
production) x 100
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
25/43
(iii) Slow Moving Stores to Total Inventory = Average Cost of Slow Moving
Stores/Average Inventory
(iv) Inventory Performance Index = (Actual Material Turnover Ratio/ Standard
Material Turnover Ratio) x 100
These ratios provide a broad framework for the control and provide the basis for
future
decisions regarding inventory control. The ratios provide a tough indication of
when
Inventory levels are going to be high. Even if it appears from the ratio that the
levels are too
high there might be a perfectly good reason why the level of Inventory is being
maintained.
The ratios also indicate the situation and trend. However, the limitation of ratios
should be
kept in mind. They are not an end themselves, but only tools of sound InventoryManagement.
FINANCIAL MANAGERS ROLE IN INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
Inventory represents a large investment by manufacturing concern: therefore, great
emphasis must be placed on its efficient management. Though, the operative
responsibility
for Inventory management lies with the inventory manager, the financial manager
must also
be concerned with all types of inventories- raw materials, work-in-progress and
finished
goods. He must monitor Inventory levels and see that only an optimum amount is
invested in
Inventory. He should be familiar with the Inventory control techniques and ensure
that
Inventory is managed well.
He should try to resolve the conflicting view points of all the departments in order
to have
efficient inventory management. He has to act as a careful inspector levels. He
should
introduce the policies which reduce the lead time, regulate usage and thus,minimize safety
stock. All these techniques of Inventory management lead to the goal of wealth
maximization.
VALUATION OF INVENTORIES
OBJECTIVE:
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
26/43
A primary issue in accounting for inventories is the determination of the value at
which
inventories are carried in the financial statements until the related revenues are
recognized.
This statement deals with the determination of such value, including the
ascertainment of
cost of inventories and any write-down thereof to net realizable value.
1. This statement should be applied in accounting for inventories other than:
(a) Work-in-progress arising under construction contacts, including directly related
service
contracts.
(b) Work-in-progress arising in the ordinary course of business of service
providers.
(c) Shares, debentures and other financial instruments held as stock-in-trade.
(d) Producers inventories of livestock, agricultural and forest products and mineraloils, ores
and gases to the extent that they are measured at net realizable value in accordance
with well
established practices in those industries.
2. The inventories referred are measured at net realizable value at certain stages of
production. This occurs, for example, when agricultural crops have been harvested
or mineral
oils, ores and gases have been extracted and sale is assured under a forward
contract or a
government guarantee or when a homogenous market exists and there is a
negligible risk of
failure to sell. These Inventories are excluded from the scope of this statement.
DEFINITIONS
The following terms are used in this statement with the meanings specified:
Inventories are assets:
(a) Held for sale in the ordinary course of business.
(b) In the process of production for such sale, or
(c) In the form of materials or supplies to be consumed in the production process
or in the rendering of services.1. Inventories encompass goods purchased and held for resale, for example,
merchandise
purchased by a retailer and held for resale, computer software held for resale, or
land and
other property held for resale. Inventories also encompass finished goods
produced, or workin-
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
27/43
progress being produced, by the enterprise and include materials, maintenance
supplies,
consumables and loose tools awaiting use in the production process. Inventories do
not
include machinery spares which can be used only in connection with an item of
fixed asset
and whose use is expected to be irregular; such machinery spares are accounted for
in
accordance with Accounting Standard (AS) 10, Accounting for Fixed Assets.
2. Inventories should be valued at lower of cost net realizable value.
3. Cost of Inventories
The cost of inventories should comprise all costs of purchase, costs of conversion
and other
costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
4. Costs of PurchaseThe costs of purchase consist of the purchase price including duties and taxes
(other than
those subsequently recoverable by the enterprise from the taxing authorities),
freight, inwards
and other expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition. Trade discounts,
rebates, duty
drawbacks and other similar items are deducted in determining the costs of
purchase.
5. Costs of Conversion
The costs of conversion of inventories include costs directly related to the units of
production, such as direct labour. They also include a systematic allocation of
fixed and
variable production overheads that are incurred in converting materials into
finished goods.
Fixed production overheads are those indirect costs of production that remain
relatively
constant regardless of the volume of production, such as depreciation and
maintenance of
factory buildings and the cost of factory management and administration. Variableproduction overheads are those indirect costs of production that vary directly, or
nearly with
the volume of production such as indirect materials and indirect labour.
6. The allocation of fixed production overheads for purpose of their inclusion in
the costs of
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
28/43
conversion is on based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. Normal
capacity is
the production expected to be achieved on an average over a number of periods or
seasons
under normal circumstances, taking into account the loss of capacity resulting from
planned
maintenance. The actual level of production may be used if it approximates normal
capacity.
The amount of fixed production overheads allocated to each unit of production is
not
increased as a consequence of low production or idle plant. Unallocated overheads
are
recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. In periods of
abnormally
high production, the amount of fixed production overheads allocated to each unitof
production is decreased so that inventories are not measured above cost. Variable
production
overheads are assigned to each unit of production on the basis of the actual use of
the
production facilities.
7. A production process may result in more than one product being produced
simultaneously.
This is the case, for example, when joint products are produced or when there is a
main
product and a by- product. When the costs of conversion of each product are not
separately
identifiable, they are allocated between the products on a rational and consistent
basis. The
allocation may be based, for example, on the relative sales value of each product
either at the
stage in the production process when the products become separately identifiable,
or at the
completion of production. Most by- products as well as scrap or waste materials,by their
nature, are immaterial. When this is the case, they are often measured at net
realizable value
and this value is deducted from the cost of the main product. As a result, the
carrying amount
of the main product is not materially different from its cost.
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
29/43
8. Other costs are included in the costs of inventories only to the extent that they
are incurred
in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. For example, it
may be
appropriate to include overheads other than production overheads or the costs of
designing
product for specific customers in the cost of inventories.
9. Interest and other borrowing costs are usually considered as not relating to
bringing the
inventories to their present location and condition and are, therefore, usually not
included in
the cost of inventories.
10. Exclusions from the cost of Inventories
In determining the cost of inventories in accordance with paragraph 3. It is
appropriate toexclude certain costs and recognize them as expenses in the period in which they
are
incurred. Examples of such costs are;
1. Abnormal amounts of wasted materials, labour, or other production costs.
2. Storage costs, unless those costs are necessary in the production process prior to
a further
production stage.
3. Administrative overheads that do not contribute to bringing the inventories to
their
present location and condition, and
4. Selling and distribution costs.
11. The cost of inventories of items that are not ordinarily interchangeable and
goods or
services produced and segregated for specific projects should be assigned by
specific
identification of their individual costs.
12. Specific identification of cost means that specific costs are attributed to identify
items of
inventory. This is an appropriate treatment for items that are segregated for aspecific project,
regardless of whether they have been purchased or produced. However, when there
are large
numbers of items of inventory which are ordinarily interchangeable, specific
identification of
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
30/43
costs is inappropriate since, in such circumstances, an enterprise could obtain
predetermined
effects on the net profit or loss for the period by selecting a particular method of
ascertaining
the items that remain in inventories.
13. The cost of inventories, other than those dealt with in paragraph 11, should be
assigned
by using the first-in, first-out (FIFO), or weighted average cost formula. The
formula used
should reflect the fairest possible approximation to the cost incurred in bringing the
items of
inventory to their present location and condition.
14. A variety of cost formulas is used to determine the cost of inventories other
than those for
which specific identification of individual costs is appropriate. The formula used indetermining the cost of an item of inventory needs to be selected with a view to
providing the
fairest possible approximation to the cost incurred in bringing the item to its
present location
and condition.
The FIFO formula assumes that the items of inventory which were purchased or
produced
first are consumed or sold first, and consequently the items remaining in inventory
at the end
of the period are those most recently purchased or produced. Under the weighted
average
costs formula, the cost of each item is determined from the weighted average of the
cost of
similar items at the beginning of a period and the cost of similar items purchased or
produced
during the period. The average may be calculated on a periodic basis or as each
additional
shipment is received, depending upon the circumstances of the enterprise.
15. Techniques for the measurement of the cost of inventories, such as the standardcost
method or the retail method, may be used for convenience if the results
approximate the
actual cost. Standard costs take into account normal levels of consumption of
materials and
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
31/43
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
32/43
19. Estimates of net realizable value are based on the most reliable evidence
available at the
time the estimates are made as to the amount the inventories are expected to
realize. These
estimates take into consideration fluctuations of price or cost directly relating to
events
occurring after the balance sheet date to the extent that such events confirm the
conditions
existing at the balance sheet date.
20. Estimates or net realizable value also take into consideration the purpose for
which the
inventory is held. For example, the net realizable value of the quantity of inventory
held to
satisfy firm sales or service contracts is based on the contract price. If the sales
contracts arefor less than the inventory quantities held, the net realizable value of the excess
inventory is
based on general selling prices.
Contingent losses on firm sales contracts in excess of inventory quantities held and
contingent losses on firm purchase contracts are dealt with in accordance with the
principles
enunciated in Accounting Standard (A.S) 4, contingencies and events occurring
after the
balance sheet date.
21. Materials and other supplies held for use in the production of inventories are
not written
down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are
expected to
be sold at or above cost. However, when there has been a decline in the price of
materials and
it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed net realizable
value, the
materials are written down to net realizable value. In such circumstances, the
replacementcost of the materials may be the net available measure of their net realizable value.
An assessment is made of net realizable value as at each balance sheet date.
22. Disclosure.
The financial statements should disclose:
The accounting policies adopted in measuring inventories, including the cost
formula used,
-
8/8/2019 Invent Mgmt
33/43
and The total carrying amount of inventories and its classification appropriate to
the
enterprise.
24. Information about the carrying amounts held in different classifications of
inventories
and the extent of the changes in these assets is useful to financial statement users.
Common
classifications of inventories are raw materials and components, work in progress,
finished
goods, stores, spares and loose tools.

Interpretation -
The FIFO method of valuation of inventory is based on the assumption that the
inventoryconsumed in chronological order . that is received first are issued / consumed first
and value
fixed accordingly . From the table with an opening inventory of 10000 units at rs
2.10, the
first 10000 units issued are charged to the cost of goods sold at this opening
inventory rate rs
2.10 . the April 18 issue or consignment of 4000 units is costed on the basis of first
received
of the year . January 9 ,1000 units at rs 2.21, January 27 1000 units at rs 2.31 , and
February
16 ,2000 units at rs 2.41. the 1000 each issued on May 12 and June 10 are costed
on the basis
of the 2000 units received on March 3 . therefore the cost of the 13000 inventory
on June 30
is composed of the received of March
29 April 4 and 23 ,May 24 and June 30 and the value is the sum of the cost of these
receipts.

The value of inventory after 31 January is 6080 /rs
Interpretation :-
The value of inventory under periodic & perpetual inventory system is different.
The
value of inventory under perpetual system is more than periodic system.
DETERMINATION OF STOCK LEVELS
Data of concentrate at JOL is as follows
Maximum consumption = 65 units per day
Minimum consumption = 55 units per day
Normal consumption = 59 units per day
Re-order period = 10-15 daysRe-order quantity = 878 units
Normal re-order period = 12 days
Re-order level = Maximum consumption * Maximum
Re-order period
Re-order level = 65 units * 15 days
= 975 units
Minimum stock level = re-order level (normal consumption *
Normal re-order period)
= 975 - (59 units * 12 days)
= 267 units
Maximum stock level = (re-order level + re-order quantity )
- ( min. consumption order period)
= ( 975 units + 878 units ) - (55 units * 15 days)
= 1028 units
Average stock level = minimum stock level + of Re-ordering
Quantity
= 267 units + * 878 units
= 267 units + 439 units
= 706 unitsInterpretation of result : -
1. After calculation the re-order level of JOL is 975 units but the actual re-order
quantity is
878 units.
2. The minimum stock level of JOL is 267 units.
3. The maximum stock level of JOL is 1028 units.

CONCLUSIO
N
CONCLUSION
The goal of the wealth maximization is affected by the efficiency with which
inventory is
managed. Inventories constitutes about 60% of current assets of companies in
India. The
manufacturing companies hold inventories in the form of raw materials , work in
progress
and finished goods. Inventories facilitate smooth production and sales operation
(transaction
motive), to guard against the risk of unpredictable changes in usage rate and
delivery time
( precautionary motive ) , & to take advantage of price fluctuations (speculative
motive ).
Inventories represent investment of a firms funds. The objectives of the
inventory management should be the maximization of the value of the firm.therefore the
firm should consider:
1. cost 2. return 3. risk factors
In inventory maintenance two types of costs are involved carrying cost & ordering
cost .the
-

firm should minimize the total cost ( carrying plus ordering cost ).The firm follows
inventory
control techniques as A-B-C technique EOQ & JIT techniques for better holding
inventories.
