Influence of inventory valuation methods on the economic result
BOČKOVÁ, Iva
This work examines how inventory valuation methods can affect the economic result. To perform the analysis I approached a company that operates an e-shop selling equine products. I am the accountant of this firm and for several years we have been dealing with a high economic result as a part of a tax optimization, which is the result of constantly increasing sales of goods. The company currently conducts accounting in the B way and also keeps detailed stock records. My objective is to use the FIFO method and weighted arithmetic average to perform modeling for 3 selected products, to determine the prices from the valuation of the sold inventories and then to calculate the annual values. The annual values found are compared and the differences calculated. The results show that differences from inventory valuation have occurred but are not significant in relation to the annual volume of inventory sold. For the company, this would mean that whether it used the FIFO method or weighted arithmetic average for inventory destocking, the accounting would reflect a cost of a similar amount. Neither of the above methods would have an effect on the economic result in this case of a specific firm. Changing the valuation method when inventories disappear from the warehouse would not bring higher costs to the company and thus would not be a beneficial for tax optimization.
